"The design concept of the layout of the Art Gallery and Conservatory building is a linear pattern composed of cells. This approach ensures natural expansion without detriment to the original building complex...allows growth in stages, with maximum flexibility...The various alignments of cells follow closely the contours of the site, thereby creating a building massing congruous to the landscape." --Architectural Competition Report submitted by Schoenauer Schreiber Architects.
