precis 7

i was encouraged to explore ways of offering a unique point-of-view of the artists as they work, by elevating the audience to peer down on them. while excavation downward was encouraged, it proves difficult to offer ample linear square footage for this. i was also concerned about providing daylighting to artists if they were lowered. as a way to offer this idea, i have changed the 2nd floor to a viewing area, and added a loft where visitors can peer down to the 1st floor and view work. this maintains lighting on the first floor for them.
