Silkeborg museum in itself was designed to hold a strict circular movement that allows people to move within it in a specific way, Utzon designed this so as to control the experience which is experienced by its visitors who will glide effortlessly down into the museum. One of the main aspects that I like of this museum which was once stated by Utzon “It will be with a sense of surprise and a desire to penetrate down into the building that the visitor for the first time sees the three-storey building open beneath him”, I would like to heighten this experience during my re-interpretation by placing this museum in a so to speak an Atlantic scene. Utzon was inspired by the experience of visiting the caves in Tatung, he included this aspect of being confronted by a gigantic object which so to speak the viewer cannot take in everything at once. This was also another aspect of this architecture which I think is the highlight of the building, during my re-interpretation I want to provide an option of experiencing the art piece within, which can be describe by a gigantic art piece in a gigantic “onion” shaped white room while having reflected water which will be flowing along the curvature wall behind the art piece.
