Wall Wall / / ?
A wall defines the ‘inside’ and ‘outside’. It acts as a seperator, giving the inside its privacy and isolation, and a varrier to limit physical movements.
A boundary is needed to define the cultural centre from the land. Yet it ought to be open and welcoming both to visitors and villagers.
In other words, I challenge mtyself to make the wall a “permeable membrane” in this project.

/ Horizontal transition as the concept stood out when the massing is linear and flat. Also, we do not want to block the visual connection between the new and old city. Landscapes and ramps are soft elements to welcome interactions with the land.
