to house a community's identity

BEACH RD
MUSEUM
The Beach Road Community Museum is an architecture that stands for the community's identity and heritage, based on their spatial and dwelling traits. The architecture blurs the boundaries between private and public spaces just as its dwellers do, by breaking out of the conventional grid. It aims to celebrate the groundedness of the dwellers by bleeding the inside and outside spaces of the galleries. Visual and physical connection with the surrounding activities and biodiversity was key in redefining an art space. As the community takes over the spaces and introduces their character, the pristine and clean museum becomes worn and beautiful. It grows old with character as dwellers bring in their red plastic chairs, and soccer balls, while the nature inside and outside the museum overgrows the architecture.
