Art Gallery
The 240 square-metre building provides a gallery for a temporary exhibition programme of local contemporary art, a small education facility, and a shop.
The accommodation is provided within a concrete clad block to give the building an urban- integrated prominence appropriate to its location in the town.
The small size and particular character of the floor enables a close and orientating connection to the surrounding urban landscape.
The space of the building are up-lit with openings on the flat roof, providing a domestic scale tailored to the nature of the works in the collection.
