Space Information
Rather than pursuing an independent pattern, the design begins by embracing the existing park’s natural curved lines. It is laid out like a child’s scribbling as well as an abstract figure before the writing system had been perfected. The promenade that begins at the boundary between the existing park and museum site is made up of supple spaces that make the boundary between the park and museum unrecognizable, hence it provides a sequence where the internal and external relationships intersect, overlap, and reverse. It also draws people into the museum, linking them to the exhibition spaces. At the permanent exhibition spaces, ‘PAGES’ is transformed into various forms of exhibition made of distinct scenarios, letting the audience who are walking along the walls communicate with diverse writing systems. From the daily park to the exhibition space, an itinerary that goes into locating the root of the writing system was intended to be experienced by the visitors, and the experience of the visitors will be left as a daily record in ‘PAGES’, connecting to a new experience.
