Garage Centre for Contemporary Culture by OMA

from here: http://www.dezeen.com/2012/04/27/garage-centre-for-contemporary-cultureby-oma/
'Translucent polycarbonate will clad the exterior, while inside the galleries hinged panels will fold down from the ceilings to create white walls when necessary.' Amazed by how OMA could turn a place like this (see existing photo) into a lively space. Simply having translucent polycarbonate panels covering almost full elevation with gap all along at the bottom, creating a sense of lightness, as well as distinguishing the inside and outside. How can you not love OMA?
