Design Triple - Three Museums: A museum as a Spiritual Emblem; The Art of Integrating Architecture with Nature; A New Form of Interactive Engagement between Art and the Public

Our "Design Triple" session places three museums together, each one of which pushes the boundaries of the accepted functions of a cultural institution. Muda Architects' Tianfu Museum of Chinese Medicine is designed as a giant Taiji diagram, or yin-yang symbol, to represent the philosophy of holistic traditional Chinese medicine; Aurora Design's HumShan Ding You Feng photography museum draws from the local landscape, the architecture reflecting harmony between mountains, water, and the built environment; and UN Studio's Chungnam Art Museum turns itself  "inside out" to address the community with vibrant interactive spaces.
