COMMUNITY MUSEUN

Redefine the museum by learning the texture of 'Lifen'

Site: Wuhan

Project Type: Acedemic, personal project

Architecture Type: Public Building - Museum

Instructor: Kai Yu

Study and research the existing space between different groups of people within community-oriented. At the same time, in the city and adapt to any urban space space types and plane textures of Lifen, which is a Wuhan traditional residence form. Because of the close relationship within it, this feature is used to redefine the museum and make the "superior" museum close to the people and time, 3D printing technology and the concept of modules are used to make it a basic type that can be infinitely replicated space scale, truly becoming a community museum.

Redefine the museum

Form Isolated Art to Popular Art

In Wuhan now, museums and residents’ lives are very divided, and art seems to be aloof and untouchable to residents. Therefore, I hope that by translating and applying the layout of Wuhan’s residential space-Lifen to the graphic design of the museum, different groups of people can be gathered in the redefined museum and have an intimate relationship. Between artists and artists, between artists and tourists, between tourists and tourists, between businessmen and tourists, between businessmen and artists, and so on.

Isolated Art

In Wuhan now, museums and residents’ lives are very divided, and art seems to be aloof and untouchable to residents. In daily life, it is even more difficult for people to come into contact with art, no matter what form it is.

Close Relationship In Lifen

In Wuhan, on the streets and in the courtyards, the relationship between people is very close, and many interesting activities take place.

Learning Plan Texture Of Lifen

The plane scale of Lifen Street is very conducive to people's intimate activities, so the structural reconstruction of its plane texture is used to redefine and design the museum.

Creat Spaces For Different Relationships In Redefined Museum

The types of activities in the museum and the corresponding types of spaces required have changed accordingly.

Popular Art

After the museum is redefined, all internal relationships are deconstructed and reconstructed to form a community museum. In it, life and art are well integrated, and different people can gather here, like a miniature city.

Art is integrated into people's life

The see the interior space and texture scale is very close to the people and can even be said to be narrow, and at the same time, people will feel confused and lost when they shuttle through it. When traveling in the middle of the road, one second you may be in a billiard hall, the next second you enter a closed small room, and the next second you may enter a large factory building that can accommodate hundreds of people .

Logic of GF Plan Generation

Interior Rendering of the Exhibition Space

This is one of the exhibition spaces. You can see that the space on the left side of the picture can be used to plan and arrange different exhibition themes, and the right side is some rest and communication spaces. The gaps between the building modules form a good strip of natural lighting.

Interior Rendering of the Social Space

This is one of the social spaces. The building modules form a triangular-like void, allowing sunlight to penetrate naturally, bringing good lighting conditions for the planting of small and medium-sized trees. At the same time, it is a very good social space, which is the best place for local residents to gather, rest, play cards and have meals.

The project uses 3D printing technology, and the concept of modules, making it a prototype that can be infinitely replicated in the city and adapted to various types of sites. The application of 3D printing technology in the actual construction process is also constantly developing, and it has opened up new paths for architectural design and future development. Its high efficiency and sustainability have a high degree of adaptation to this scheme.
