The Gallery project is a tribute to pure form and the sky's connection. Its covered walkway links buildings, creating new spaces for learning and socializing.
The semi-outdoor main spine is now an enclosed Gallery showcasing the school's vibrant life and student artwork. A zigzag skylight dissolves the linear language of the corridor, casting shadows as the sun's rays pour in.
Transparency and sky connection define the design. The structure filters light through a pure form, creating an ethereal sense of space.
The Gallery leads to Charles Kao Square and the Gymnasium via an elevated walkway. Providing extra space for students and a grandstand view of the sports ground. The Gallery project is a part of the masterplan of creating a 3-dimensional social lanscape for The ISF community.
