Furniture Gallery

Overview: Stella has acquired a significant collection of early modern furniture and artifacts. Stella is planning a small gallery to display featured pieces for exhibit. She wants a flexible space, able to accommodate changing exhibits, and envisions architectural/built elements that allow the objects on display to become the primary focus of the space.

Program: An infill space (24x24x24” cube) will be used as interior space. Note that there are other spaces on each (east/west) side and a common corridor at the back (south) side, all divided by existing 1’ thick walls.

A visitor entry is provided in the north façade, in a 24’ wide and 12’ deep area with 8’ high walls on the east and west sides.
