Are Arranged in That Crosses Atrium, Providing A Bird's Eye View of Acti Vity Below

The building features a central atrium flooded with daylight from above. Gallery spaces surrounding the atrium receive light despite the museum's deep plan. Externally, the building reveals little of its interior organization, with support spaces like a bookshop and cafe opening from the central atrium. Four floors of gallery spaces over 60 meters long are arranged in long rows and crowned by a bridge crossing under a lantern, providing views of the atrium below.
