ST.ANTONY'S CHURCH DISPLAY GALLERY

The design required was to host a resource/art gallery in a site location which was close to be exhausted.

The place chosen to locate the art gallery was a small void under the mid landing of a bifurcated stairway.

The idea was to create a shell panning over the spatial gap between the stairs. The ferrocement shell covers the circular blob and the rigid spaces under the stairway interconnects to the shell.

To gain the usable height, the ground was excavated.

A gentle step-down was created to access the gallery.
