| APPROACH FROM ENTRANCE PLAZA | The cycloid vaults rise up to almost touch the existing postal office building.

tripartie

The challenge of an unknown site is the infinite possibilities for the space. With a empty plaza situated in a mysterious urban context, the project is to create a pavillion-type museum over a landscape of ancient ruins. Tripartite is a cascading concrete structure that rises up to reveal the corner edge of the existing postal office building as a gesture to anchor the pavillion onto the site. The north and south wings of the museum enclose the existing large plaza to create an informal gathering space. The arches frame imaginary views from the interior as well as act as gate for the plaza from the street edge.

With the selection of the structural supports becoming the preliminary conceptual idea, the selection of the cycloid vault is used to both support a large span over the ruins and to divide the museum into a series of elongated rooms. To fade in controlled light for the artifacts, the zenith of the arches are split to transmit light into baffles that continue to direct light down the sides of the arches. 5

| VIEW OUTWARDS TO THE PLAZA | The central arches are left open to the air to provide an interstitial inside/outside space.

| INTIMATE VS. VASTNESS | The public programs are located in the lower vaults with the main exhibition spaces located in the higher vaults. The organization is to juxtapose intimate social interactions and sublime viewing experience.

| SKYLIGHT WITH BAFFLES | The baffles project down the sides of the vault during the daytime but it also contains artificial lighting for open-air events when the enveloped areas of the building are closed.

| PRODUCTIVE ARCHIVE | As a city museum, the locale should act as a city-making hub where visitors have free access to the history and research being done on the city. The workshops, studios, and classrooms are enmeshed into a single space to activiate ideas for the city so the space acts as a forum.

What is the role of a museum when the museum is part of the very thing it is documenting? This paradox is what generates the conceptual idea for the Exploratory, where the museum has the task of not only capturing and documenting the spirit and complexity of the urban fabric at many different scales, but also must have an active role in the cities narrative. The introduction of city-making programs integrates these workshops, studios, meeting rooms, and classrooms in a 6-storey, 25,000 square metre productive archive for citizens to use as both research lab and as an exhibit of the current city of Toronto and its history. The two brick massings that house the productive archives derives its exterior qualities from the designated heritage buildings on the site. These archives are the drivers of the museum and within each mass, the archives act as striations that are broken up by two interlocking ramps that slips and slides within them creating intimate and distance relationship between the objects and the viewer.
