The Grid Museum & Restaurant
Designed by CharlesGrantArchitecture
My goal when designing this project was to create a space where art, culture, and food all come together in a structure for social gatherings. My design process moved from concepts to diagrams, where I developed my project using a grid method. The grid method and grid pattern design of the building resulted in the fruition of the building's name. The building features a gray terracotta clay cladding to exaggerate the feeling of this grid, and implement strong shadow effects to create the feeling of a larger presence when entering the building. First and second-floor large open galleries run the distance of the building well a boutique-style restaurant featuring outdoor seating and an activity space highlight the southwest.
