1.3 Hitchcock Museum
Direct reappearence of scenes: In the works of Alfred Hitchcock, there are a lot scenes of distinctive personal style, which not only reflect superb skills of shooting and a mastery of camera language, but also is an external expression of internal dark,chaotic mental process. Consequently, I set up some display areas of direct reappearence of scenes to recall the astonishing spaces in the movies and find an access to the spiritual world of Alfred Hitchcock.
The exhibition area is made up of four exibition "core"s. They are split by the paths and lamps. A lot of turns and height difference is set to reproduce the classic atomsphere in the movie. The original tower is used as poster exibition, which is also a pivotal part of the whole circus. People could reach the roof through the tower. Two additional stairwells are set to correspond to the tower and make the traffic smoother. The louvre is based on paths below and let skylight in to shape the outline of the "core".
To make full use of the riverside area, an open-air cinema is proposed. On the west bank, a cantilevered-out step offers a good view of the movie. On the opposite bank, people could gather on the grass and watch a fascinating movie. The salon and parties can also be held here, too.
