Kyu Sung Woo Architects Inc

In November, Woo was authorized to provide preliminary design services for the Nerman Museum. Woo will be working as a subconsultant with the local architectural firm Gould Evans Goodman L.L.C., which was selected in September to provide overall architectural and interior design services for the college’s new Regnier Center for Technology and Business and the adjoining museum, as well as a parking deck. The total estimated basic cost for all architectural and engineering work.

Controlled natural lighting is provided for in the entire upper and lower level galleries, except in the museum's specialty black box, media gallery. The exhibition spaces are connected by dramatic monumental stairways bathed in natural light, which highlight the ascension to serene upper level galleries. The program of the gallery spaces are clearly identified as a stone volume, cantilevered from the core of the museum, the beginning of the art journey, a large frameless glazed lobby wall.

Modular Table Lava 86.4 x 86.4 x 72.4 cm
This table is designed for life on a moderate income and limited space, yet still tries to live a full life within means.



This table has two functional modes: work /dining. A grid structure allows the placement of nine dual-function panels. Each panel has a "mood creating element" such as wine, flowers, and so on, and a flat surface on the other side. This allows the owner to use the table as a work surface during the day, and at night the panels are flipped and arranged as preferred.
