SNG Ľudovíta Fullu

The Slovak National Gallery held a competition for a complete reconstruction of its interior space in the gallery of Ludovit Fulla. The criteria was to create a case study including: floor, furniture design and lighting solutions for the ground floor, public space and main upper level gallery. The budget for this was 100.000 or less. Our idea for the ground floor was to design a space that was truly multifunctional. We created a library, a meeting and workshop space. Near to the entrance is a refreshment area, which is cleverly hidden behind a shelving system, where the public can make themselves a cup of coffee or tea. There are two types of seating, stackable chairs which can be used to vary the arrangement of the space, and a unique boxed-design which we created especially for this competition. The beauty of its design is that it can be used as a table, a chair and for storage. On both levels, the downlights are on a tracking system and can be set for any specific task required. Throughout the whole building we used high-end extra large tiles /90×90/ that are durable, sustainable and anti-slip. On the upper level is the main gallery. We designed a storage area at one end, to house stackable chairs, boxes and presentation cabinets when they are not in use. It is hidden behind a presentation panel, complete with LED screen to transmit subtitles in any language. I collaborated with Mgr.art.Miroslava Lichá on this project.
