Two weighty volumes frame a deep reveal.
The approach should feel ceremonial through scale and shadow, not applied ornament.
Architectural checkpoint 02
A procession from shade into light.
The approved concept is now a navigable low-poly study. It tests massing, scale, circulation, daylight openings, and the transition from the lobby into the main hall—without detailed materials or exhibition content.
Blockout awaiting architectural approval01 · Spatial sequence
Simple orientation, changing scale.
A recessed five-metre entrance opens into a tall lobby. A lower, narrower passage then compresses the view before releasing into a forty-four metre circular forum. Concentric steps draw visitors toward a sunken public center while the perimeter remains available for future exhibits.

- 18 × 16 × 9 m

Circular blockout 02 · awaiting review
02 · Architectural language
Monumental, warm, restrained.
A linear roof light traces the main route.
Soft daylight reveals warm surfaces while preserving a clear direction to the hall.
A circular forum organizes gathering and discovery.
A sunken center, ring balcony, and perimeter route preserve flexible exhibit space.
03 · Light and atmosphere
Daylight leads. Gallery light recedes.
The lobby uses the entrance and roof slot for broad, warm illumination. The passage is intentionally quieter. The circular forum concentrates daylight through a central skylight. Brick-toned stepped rings, columns, and perforated upper screens shape the light without introducing detailed textures or exhibit lighting yet.
04 · Navigable blockout
Walk the revised plan at human scale.
Four repeatable cameras cover the entrance, lobby, hall, and overhead plan. Desktop visitors can also use pointer-lock WASD navigation; touch devices use guided viewpoints and drag-look. The renderer still loads only when requested.
The architectural blockout is ready to load.
Review gate
The blockout is ready for your review.
Please test the entrance massing, lobby height, roof-light slot, passage compression, hall diameter, sunken forum depth, ring balcony, perforated upper enclosure, central skylight, and circulation. Detailed geometry and final materials remain blocked until you explicitly approve this complete architectural layout.
