I would like to see a clearer approach to the façade design, especially the elevations. The current fully closed envelope raises concerns about natural lighting and ventilation strategies, which can impact energy efficiency and user comfort, key factors in sustainable building operation.

Incorporating parametric design on the façade could not only enhance aesthetics but also improve constructability by allowing prefabricated elements and modular assembly. I would also appreciate more information on how the concrete and steel structural systems are integrated and coordinated to support this modern gallery function efficiently.
