Custom Textures

‘Abrasive’ provides uniquely personal and beautiful (in the Burkean sense) texture within an otherwise monolithic, geometric space. It fosters a fascinating interplay between the privileged viewpoints of the car and the workspace, microcosmically embodying the challenges and values imbued within the space, and its design. 


Light heartedness of the colouration in ‘Smooth’ helps to define a generally pleasant and artistic building inviting the viewer into the gallery. Its application onto the large draping canopy suggesting a unique approach to design, manifesting as a curiosity towards the gallery and the work within.
   
The darker ‘Etched’ texture was imposed disjunctively upon the roof structure to emphasise the genteel nature of the curvatures. It was employed away from areas of congregation as to not overpower the observers scale, but instead contrast against the more circular, glistening, white roofs; made further graceful by those geometric shadows overcast.
