Design questions

  • How little visual infrastructure is needed to make each display feel deliberate?
  • Can circulation alternate between compression and release without becoming confusing?
  • How might light define zones when the display arrangement changes?

Proposed direction

Compose a soft-white field of slim plinths and translucent screens, punctuated by cobalt thresholds and a charcoal consultation niche.
