UPCYCLED CARGO-CONTAINERS
Ten ordinary steel cargo containers make the basis of the project. Five of them generates the ground floor, three surrounds the central first floor courtyard and the final two closes the square shaped building, giving access to the top floor balcony. The project is based on the idea that this semi- temporary Art Gallery, can be disassembled, moved and reassembled easily at any location, within a few days.
By designing the components to overlap only partly, the composition of the building seems light and airy, giving TAM much protected and exposed outdoor space.
The containers are insulated on the inside, and covered with sheets of plywood and sheetrock (gwb) all painted white, giving the space clean surfaces excellent for an art space.
