OFL architecture + fueralab concept design for a floating gallery on the river thames
is based on a topography of a cut, landscape; reinterpreting the idea of fluidity, whether
in a liquid stage or a fixed 'frozen' surface.

the exterior of the exhibition space will be covered with four different types of flowers,
every four months, representing the current season: red tulips during spring,
yellow freesia during summer, blue iris during the fall, and orange narcissus during winter.

the exhibition space/auditorium and temporary exhibition spaces are placed inside
the landscape and they are defined in the form of an exhibition path that runs the full
length of the vessel space.  intersecting the exhibition path is the cafeteria with storage
room and bathrooms.




the exterior glass facade and interior wood truss structure are arranged in a way to prevent direct sun-light penetrating
the exhibition spaces
