We designed Tunga Gallery at Inhotim, a contemporary art museum and botanic garden in Brumadinho, Minas Gerais, Brazil as a highly flexible space to accommodate various works, temporary and permanent, in various scales and types, without resorting to the traditional "white cube”. The natural uphill terrain was respected, and we slightly raised the building. The differentiation inside the building reflects the topographic condition and generates the two main levels, which are connected by stairs and ramps which extend beyond the interior and create a large open balcony. The gallery is open to the context, with several accesses, delivering endless ways of moving through the space, including passageways that are also used as exhibition spaces.
