02. MUSEUM OF EMOTIONS

Manhattan, KS Art Museum

Software utilized: Rhino, Illustrator, InDesign, Lumion, Photoshop, Revit Project Duration: Fourteen Weeks

Location: Pierre and 3rd Street

Year Completed: Fall 2022

Architecture is a medium which can produce strong emotions, both positive and negative. The goal of the Museum of Emotions is to let the architecture be the art by creating a contrast of spaces to produce negative and positive emotions. The Museum of Emotions is symbolic of a journey represented through water and space. As one enters the building they cross over a large reflecting pool, the theme of water is again repeated throughout the building, both physically and symbolically, to symbolize ones journey from the negative to the positive space. The negative space lies below the reflecting pool. This placement evokes a feeling of drowning as the user looks up through the glass ceiling into the reflecting pool, and up to the positive space looming above. In contrast the positive

Professor: Cameron Tross space floats above the reflecting pool, and feels light and airy. Water trickles down a curved wall of marble in the positive space, and channel glass filters the light, giving the space a feeling of tranquility and peace. Additional program is added to the museum to help give the building life. A restaurant to the north both serves patrons to the museum and those who are just walking by. Additionally, several art galleries are placed throughout the museum to house both local and touring artwork. To help tie the building to the outdoors sculpture gardens are placed throughout the site. This museum serves the community of Manhattan by providing a place for locals and visitors alike to appreciate the powerful impact art and architecture has on the human person.

A sculpture garden to the south of the site interacts with the discovery center across the street. An additional entrance to the south provides the opportunity for those staying in hotels across the street to easily enter the museum.

Several restaurants surround the museum several of which are located in the purple zone. Accessibility to the restaurant located inside this museum is included to add multi-functionality to the museum and to fit into the context of the surrounding buildings.

This museum is the first thing visitors see driving into Manhattan. The sculptural curve at the entrance of the museum greets visitors as they exit off of the highway into Manhattan.

Much of the foot traffic into the museum will come from Poyntz avenue. An overhanging element is placed to draw pedestrians from Poyntz avenue to the main entrance of the museum.
