250 Words on Redesign
The Silkeborg Museum that I would redesign would be mainly based on the original design of Utzon’s with alterations with the interior of the building. Though, in relation to the geographic location of the actual building would be to have it in a more open space without buildings close to it as well as having a mountainous backdrop when viewed from the entrance of the building.
The main alteration of the interior would be the ramp as I believe it doesn’t really allow for simple movement and thus has bad movement flow. The alterations that I’m considering would be either have a ramp that allows for fluid movement of people or staircase/stairwells that can allow for people to move from one level to another. This also means how the people can circulate between every room and floor. This means that it gives the individual a certain set path of walking around the museum, but will also allow for traveling to specific section in the museum. As for material of the building I would be going for a smooth white ceramic/stone look with wood panels and/or wooden structures to give it a natural look.
With the exterior, I would choose the open area with a mountainous backdrop is to be a scenic viewpoint. I choose a mountainous backdrop because I believe that this would emphasize the curves that Utzon has originally designed. This would then emphasize on an organic look of the building with how the building mimics the curves of the background. The exterior of the building is decent looking to me, though having a covered pathway leading to the museum is aesthetically pleasing, and also allows for easy viewing of where the main entrance of the building is. The materials I would use would be the same as the interior, but maybe having steel or ceramic roofing for the walkway.
