Precedent and development; site model and context.
I deduced two key points from Gormleys drawings and sculpture that would suit the design well; modulation and large spaces which were encased by platforms on which complimentary drawing could surround large lifeless statues. I picked the Yale art Gallery front facade as a starting point of modulation, 5 equal sectors on which to base my modules, the development then continued from this modular aspect to create a continous space with 4 main parts, the main gallery, the stair gallery, the courtyard; and the apartment. With these in mind; a ground plan was developed using two flanking corridor spaces encapsulating large open spaces. The front facade was then developed and tested with the site, it seemed to work well.
