Herzog and de Meuron's Goetz Collection Building
Inspired by the use of frosted class and internal lighting to create a "glow"/ lantern effect. The building is also used as a gallery for private collections.
Frank Gehry's Guggenheim Bilbao
Drawn from Frank Gehry's own design, his use of glass and steel in the Guggenheim building really inspired me to use the steel frames and mesh out a new structure out of the current Vitra Design Museum.
Jun Aoki & Associates's White Chapel in Japan
Inspired by its luminescence glow and the use of steel "hoops" linked together to create a transcending presence. The Chapel itself glows beautiful at night while at the same "floating" on water.
"the chapel was built within the site of hyatt regency osaka and it is mainly used for wedding ceremonies. the 'ring' structural system is hung along the perimeter of the chapel, which consists of truncated tetrahedrons made of steel rings. from inside, one can see the rings only through layered fabrics so that their presence is softly insinuated."
