The purpose of creating this space is so thatartworks of artists can be presented. The spacewas meant to be wide, empty and also isolatedfrom any form of distractions. It is to allow usersto have better focus.

By selecting the highest floor and the corner of a building, whileusing materials that isolates distractions, users will feel and

have more private space between one another.The benches are located

near the walls to preventusers at rest to affect theexperiences of the others.Transparency of the space

are kept limited but enoughto make the user feel free

rather than trapped inbetween walls.

Hence, the materials chosen to createthis space have to be simple and

gentle. Any elaborated elements in thematerials could take away the purpose

of creating this space. Also, thematerials chosen are supposed tomake users feel calm and relaxed.
