Material In Design

With the materials that I have chosen to assign in my Art Museum Structure, I would say I have kept it to a very simple approach. The first one being Concrete floors throughout the design, the reason behind using concrete flooring rather than plasterboard was I felt concrete would go nice with the environment that I will be working with. Secondly I used stones on a lot of my walls of my building which I choose since in Louis Kahns work on the National Assembly Building of Bangladesh he used similar material which inspired me to do that same. Thirdly wood was used on a lot of my balustrades and and some parts of my design, other materials I have used drastically would be Glass.
