• The biggest challenge was
in finding a way to fit the
entire program into an
unusually shaped site that
stretches from north to
south like a wine bottle.
• Although intuitively this
would have placed the
stage at the back edge of
the site, such a
configuration would turn
the back of the building
toward the residential area
to the south.
• comprised of one small and
one large performance hall

Project Outline
The larger hall, which seats 1800
opera performances for the annual
summer Saito Kinen Festival, as
well as a variety of theatrical
performances and other events.
Smaller hall which seats 240

meetings are housed in the more
intimate space of the

1. Lobby connects the foyers of both the main hall and the small hall
2. is an area of spacious dimensions that makes it possible to forget the
very narrow shape of the land on which the Centre was constructed.

1. Façade appeared to be so simple
2. Gray round wall
3. Surroundings were not uniformly attractive and that the interior spatial sequence
leading up to the theatre deserved a more remarkable and inspiring façade.
4. Façade are perforated GRC panel inlaid with glass

1. A large space envelop and contain a smaller
space within its volume.
2. The larger enveloping space serves as three
dimensional field for the smaller space
contained it
3. The contained space differ in form from the
enveloping space in order to strengthen its
image as a free standing volume
4. This contrast indicate a functional differences
between two spaces
5. Linear organization of spaces

Scale & Proportion
1. Double height space & Double

FINDINGS
Space to human mass relationship
1. Lack of big opening give the mass a solid look.
2. Solidness is reduced by the greater curvature
3. impressive thinness of columns give highly floating look to
the projected mass

Concept
•Traditionally museums
•containers that subtly told their use and clearly told how to use them.
•had order, balance in composition, oftentimes symmetry and discernible entrances.
•I M PEI rejected the traditional notion
•experience sculpture in three dimensions by moving around it.
•to discover how to enter the building and be delighted by the spaces we find.
•does not readily tell us how to use it, how to enter it or what to expect.
•in a very different way, tell us that it is about art.
•ells us we should look at buildings and art from a different perspective
•asks us to explore and question what we think art,
or sculpture, or spaces, or buildings should be.
•begins as a search for the front door becomes
•a journey to experience art and architecture from a new point of view.

1. considered a work of art in
itself.
2. perceived as a piece of
sculpture placed on a
podium that one walks
around.
3. difficult to find the
entrance – almost forcing
visitors to walk around it to
experience the structure.

FINDINGS
Spatial quality
1. Elevated base plan: A horizontal plane
elevated above the ground established
vertical surface along its edges that reinforce
the visual separation between its field and
surrounding ground.
2. Depressed base plan : A horizontal plane
depressed into the ground plane utilizes the
vertical surfaces of lowered to define a
volume of space
3. Over head plan : a horizontal plane located
overhead define a volume of space between
itself and the ground plane

FINDINGS
Spatial quality
1. Without any interlocking Adjacent spaces
Make the whole project
2. stand free within its site but extend its interior spaces to
merge with private exterior spaces
3. the slots of space defined by rectangular galleries 1are
modulated by altering the spacing and configuration
4. external voids are used as circulation paths
5. spaces are adjacent to each other

42.

1. Stand as a distinct from in its space and
dominate its site
2. Stand as a positive form in negative space
3. Different mass is grouped as a clustered form
4. The unadorned corners of the form emphasize
the volume of their mass
5. Parts of the museum are related with one
another in a consistent manner

FINDINGS
Spatial quality
1. Visual and spatial continuity is interrupted
between the form of building and outdoor
spaces.
2. An elevated plane define a transitional space
between the interior of a building and outdoor
environment
