NFLOOR PLANFENCES ON THE CLIFF Archeology center Individual works

Instructed by Luis Pancorbo Location: Mallows bay, MD

Located in mallows bay, the project serves as an archeology center with exhibitions, a conference hall, workshops and place for researchers. The project is in linear shape, situated along the cliff. The cliff, which height is 20 feet, gives the project a higher view, thus people in the project can see the ship site clearly.

The concept of lantern has been applied to the whole building structure. The whole massing is lifted by the lower column, thus the building looks light.
