OTA+ (Kory Bieg and Alexa Getting): This building proposal challenges the traditional definition of a museum and the conventional relationship between building and site. The ground floor of the building is reduced to a nominal footprint, enclosing only enough space for basic services, structure and ticketing functions.

LINEARSCAPE: This project was submitted as a proposal to design the New Taipei City Museum of Art. The design creates a cultural campus that inspires the divergent forces of nature and urbanity, ideas and reality, and art and quotidian life to converge and dissolve into a fluid environment in which these forces become symbiotic and nourish the cultural vivacity of New Taipei City. The museum will not only connect the city and its people to art but will also serve as a bridge connecting the city and to its riverfront.
