Using the stairs or the elevator, you proceed up to the
next level. When you reach the second floor, you have
nine gallery spaces: four are for the permanent collec-
tions, four house special exhibitions, and the final gallery
is for the exhibition of smaller works on paper.
In addition, there are art study centers on the west side
of the building; in the northeast corner will be the film
archive and its library.

On the third floor, there are seven spaces dedicated to
the Asian collection. There is also an event space, where
receptions can be held, adjacent to the terrace that over-
looks the campus.

Normally, in the so-called white cube gallery spaces,
you move through holes opened in walls that divide one
space from its neighboring space.

In contrast to that, we took the bottom of the corner area
and, using a curve, opened it, or moved it away. We used
the curve to open the top corner and create visual rela-
tionships. We used this system in both the horizontal and
the vertical dimension to create continuity.

It would be awesome if the walls themselves could
actually move.

Through this kind of operation, the interior wall es
the exterior wall, or the exterior turns into the interior.
Through the repetition of this inversion you create a rela-
tionship between gallery spaces, as if you are walking
along one long ribbon of wall.

In the public gallery, you can just see the green outside
through the sub-entrance beyond the theater.
In some places there are corners that cannot be used
and are not suitable for exhibiting, so we’ve used them
for entrances.
As it stands now, if everything goes according to plan,
construction of the Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific
Film Archive should start one year from now.*
