Q2: How do you design a flexible space around a collection that may grow and shift over time? A2: It’s impossible to anticipate how artists will want to use the space, but we do our best to try. So some things would be extraordinary floor & ceiling load capacity; power/data in floors & ceilings; light tracks; indoor/outdoor gallery space.
