Fall down the rabbit hole into The Mary Blair Gallery, where vibrant colors and whimsically geometric designs transport you to a nostalgic world of childhood wonder.
Design Concept
Drawing inspiration from the whimsical and vibrant illustrations of Mary Blair, this experiential space aims to engage its audience through play. The primary colors, featured prominently in Blair’s own works, act as both a guide to lead people through the space and a visual feast for the eyes.
Spatial Experiences
Once guests pass through the enclosed space of the entrance, the space becomes more open and easier to navigate. The path that guests can take is dictated by a grid spatial plan.
Exterior Envelope
The exterior is decorated with shiny elements to attract people to the building and the full view of the interior space is not visible from the outside, adding a sense of mystery that encourages further exploration.
