PROJECT3# iNSPiRATiON: daniel libeskind, roof structure, space aesthetic


libeskinds denver art gallery is surrounded by older buildings and the contrast between old and new, angles and straight lines, metallic and stone is very interesting for me.

libeskinds ability to sculpt forms out of angled shapes is amazing. the complexity in this object interests me and was perhaps one of my most influential inpsirations. the form is refined yet chaotis, and brings together abstraact pieces in a beautiful way.


the angles and slope of the interior tectonics completely dictate the boundaries of the space. The language of his buildings is almost devoid of any straight lines what so ever, adn every space has its own individual character that communicates with the purpose of the room, symbolically and aesthetically. the art gallery is essentially an artwork in itself but i feel that it doesnt compete with the artworks/displays integrity due to the material choice.



Inspiration for how the roof could be structured. the daniel libeskind form is cut with lazers and its mathematical worked out and i think that to simplify it for myself, something along these lines would work better.
