ARCH 1201 - Precedent Studies (Kiasma by Steven Holl)


Steven Holl played with lighting with many different techniques. With the similar site to ours his gallery is a large long space where opque glass was used to filter the light so that the space within was glowing. The filtered lights will also reflect of the white minimalist walls therefore making the whole space seem delusional and fictional.


With the long strip there is also the use of windows creating small openings so that limited light could enter the space. Also by adjusting the height and size of openings different special effects could start to come in.
