This building is meant for painting and sculpture exhibitions. It is planned on three levels. The top floor has two galleries, with total area of 511 m2 and is iluminated with zenithal natural light, and there are three patios, with an area of 650 m2 to exhibit sculptures in the open air. The intermediate floor has three galleries, with an area of 1124 m2 and artificial lighting. There are also offices for the management and the secretary. On the ground level there is a workshop, service rooms, painting stores, and general stores. The main object which influenced this design was to be able to hold separate exhibitions simultaneously and provide independent and controlled public entry to each of them. Externally the gallery is faced with precast units and untreated concrete, and internally the surface is timber and concrete. The general impression is one of dignity, and modern, well integrated harmony.
