The Layered Gallery

摘要

The gallery, for a private art collection, was created by adding a new elevation to a Grade ll-listed building, creating a garden-like inner court in which to contemplate art. A sequence of screens creates a layered effect. The first, Cor-ten outer screen is purely structural; the second is a Cor-ten-framed glazed screen. Inside,a further layered effect is achieved through red blinds protecting the artworks and the hanging of Cor-ten screens on rails used for storing and viewing the collection.
