Designed by Architect Dan Brunn, Outland Art presents the Infinite Museum, centered on highlighting multidisciplinary visual artist James Jean’s Fragments, a series of hand-drawn digital artworks inspired by a forthcoming large-scale, luminous architectural pavilion by the artist, titled Pagoda, that will be composed of 7,000 stained glass pieces.
The experience emphasizes the individuality of the Fragments series at a singular level, and as a whole, as part of vast collection. Also, being our first metaverse design, we wanted to create something familiar, yet harness the new possibilities of weightlessness. From the onset, it was vital to balance between the physical limitations of earth, and the metaverse. With gravity is no longer a barrier to design, new forms and spaces can be created.
Ultimately, it was important to still be bound by some familiarity. Integral to all our spatial design, is our connection to sun light. Space being an expression and a vessel to light, here, we’ve pushed this to the fullest.
We set out to create an infinite experience of varied spaces, as a reflection of the colorful collection. The museum galleries effortlessly meander through space, flowing freely without gravity, from one to the next.
Starting with a continuous spiraling form, with primary exhibit spaces flanked by linear galleries, the museum builds upon an experience of ephemeral light.
Through the undulating gallery bridges, the spaces emphasizes individual vignettes, yet, there’s always a close connection to explore what’s beyond. Utilizing our signature fin windows, vistas are purposeful and direct.
At the center of it all Pagoda, gently touching down on the lush landscape. Sunlight penetrates through with a warm glow in contrast to the clean architectural statement.
