Design 4: Single-story building with complex curved walls
 
In line with the present slope of the land, the floor levels of all exhibition rooms have been planned to gradually incline from the entrance towards the back of the interior. A sloped corridor on the courtyard side connects each exhibition room. Some of the partition walls between adjacent exhibition rooms will be operational and staircases will connect the exhibition rooms. The walls have irregular 2-D curved surfaces, but, up on the roof, this changes into complex 3-D curved surfaces. The bottom of the walls extends towards the ground like the roots of a tree. The complex 3-D curved surfaces represent the undulation of the rocks in nature and harmonize with the undulation of the mountains that are visible in the background as borrowed scenery.
