Section B-B
Section A-A Roof Plan
Lightfall:Referencing Le Corbusier’s ribbon window concept, Preston Scott Cohen designed strips of indoor windows around a open core. This created a ribbon window effect, but instead of the window framing the horizon, it framed the neighboring galleries. The position of the windows are mimicing the effects of light fall.
Circulatory Ramps:These ramps corilate to the existing levels imediate context and follow spiral like ribbon windows at the core.
Centered Galleries:The galleries are located in the center of the core and the facade. Preston Cohen explains his rational by relating it to the museums location in the center of Tel Aviv.
Triangular Pre-cast Panels:These panels are directly related and positioned to lightfall, which also dictated the location of the ribbon windows. The windows position extrudes out to create the buildings facade and the scape relates to the triangular shape of the buildings lot.
