is an urban center located in the city of Greenville to invite interest of both visitors and local people to travel to destinations in South Carolina, particularly escarpment of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The form of the building was designed in an attempt to bring an experience from nature to the city. This urban center has a dual purpose, a museum and a visitor hub. The museum contains six galleries. Three dedicated to art from the coastal, piedmont and blue ridge regions of South Carolina and the others contain artwork from Greenville’s sister cities Bergamo (Italy), Kortnijk (Netherlands), and Tianjin (China). Each of the galleries portrays the beauty and contains information about its respective city or region. The buildings program also includes an auditorium, a cafe, a gift shop, public terraces, entrance plaza, and a park that surrounds the building.

DUPONT STATE FORESTBefore beginning to design I traveled to the Blue Ridge region to acquire inspiration. During my trip I traveled to the DuPont State Forest. I chose this location because of its nature trails and majestic waterfalls. As I was walking on the trail one of the first things that I noticed was the way that the sunlight was filtered by the trees, and began to think of how to incorporate this effect into my natural lighting strategy. I continued to walk until I arrived at triple falls viewing point. From this point the waterfalls looked monumental, a powerful force that cut through the mountains. As I looked closer I realized that there were people walking on the rocks, this monumental force of nature could be inhabited by people. I also wanted to incorporate this idea into my design. I continued walking until I found the path that led to the waterfalls. I was amazed by the rock formations that had been given their shapes by years and years of flowing water. One of the things that inspired me were the stacked rocks that created natural terraces and covered spaces. During the design process I attempted to incorporate all of the qualities from nature that inspired me into a building that would make people feel as if they were in the Blue Ridge and surrounded by its natural beauty.

PRECEDENTSResearch of precedent buildings was a very important part of the design process. This was the first time that I had to design a building of this size and program. I visited and researched many museums to acquire information about many aspects of museum design. Materiality was very important to my project, I was trying to create a building that appeared monumental like the rock formations and the waterfall, for this reason I researched museums that were constructed with concrete. Day lighting is a very important part of modern museum design these precedents provided me with a wide range of options to bring natural light into the gallery spaces without damaging the artwork. The most important information that I acquired from the precedent studies was gallery design and circulation. These two aspects of museums are some of the most difficult to design and have to be done correctly for the museum to be successful. These are some of the museums that had influence on my design.

Museum + Visitor HubReedy Square
DuPont State ForestWe were asked to travel to the Blue Ridge region to acquire inspiration for our design, I chose to travel to the DuPont State Forest. I chose this location because of its nature trails and majestic waterfalls. As I was walking on the trail one of the things that inspired me was the way that the sunlight was filtered by the trees, I would like to incorporate this effect into my natural lighting strategy. I continued to walk until I arrived at triple falls viewing point. From this point the waterfalls looked monumental, a powerful force that cut through the mountain. As I looked closer I realized that there were people walking on the rocks, this monumental force of nature could be inhabited by people. I want to this idea into incorporate this into my design. I continued walking until I found the path that led to the waterfalls. I was amazed by the rock formations that had been given their shapes by years and years of flowing water. One of the things that inspired me were the stacked rocks that created natural terraces and covered spaces. I want to bring all of the things that inspired me into a design that will make people feel as if they were in the Blue Ridge and surrounded by its natural beauty.
Scheme 1: Light Filtered Through TreesIn this scheme I want to incorporate the natural lighting effect that I experienced as I was walking through the forest. I want the people that visit the museum to experience this effect as they walk through the galleries. To achieve this effect I created a design in which the galleries are placed around a central courtyard.
Scheme 3:Stacked Rock FormationsIn this scheme I try to create spaces similar to the ones created by the rocks at the waterfall. Stacked bars that create voids and terraces that can be inhabited by the museum’s users. The rock formations were shifted and formed by the flow of water. The bars in my design are shifted by the shift in the city grid, which was also caused by water. The shift in the city grid is caused by the Reedy River.
Scheme 2:Monumental vs Human ScaleWith this scheme I want to evoke the same emotion, that I felt when I first saw the water falls, but then I want them to realize that this is a place that is accessible. To evoke this emotion I created a design that appear monumental on one side but is broken up by ramps and terraces on the other

Massing Model on Site Ramp + Terrace Study
The form of the building is derived from the shift that occurs in the city grid. I divided the museum into program bars and oriented them according to the old and new city grids. The shifting of the bars created terraces and public outdoor spaces on the ground level. This shift was also derived from the rock formations. I wanted to bring the experience of walking up the waterfall to the city so I added ramps that allow users to access the terraces from the ground level. The plaza and terraces are public spaces that can be used by anyone, not just the museum visitors.

GALLERIESThe museum’s has six galleries that make up most of its program. The buildings structure is composed of bars without structural support in the center. The large open space is divided into sections with mobile walls that can be rearranged according to the type of exhibition that it houses. Daylight enters the space through large skylights cutout from the roof slab. The light is filtered through many layers and converted into ambient light that illuminates the space. The materials of the galleries include exposed concrete, treated concrete on the exhibition walls, and polished concrete floors that reflect the light and resemble the wet stones in the waterfall.
