This project invesigates a hybrid network of minimal surfaces and circulation arteries in order to generate a robust system of evelope, movement and structural framework. Color and contrast emerge through depth and through reveals in the surface, allowing for the perception of interior and exterior to be articulated through varying contingencies. The parent, planar qualities, reiterating the importance of circulation as it works in and out of the galleries, creating atrium spaces. And amidst the hybridization of surface network and the branching circulation, moments of complex interconnected networks are formulated, exploring and responding architecturally to the program and to the site.
