Barbican Centre

I went to Barbican Art Gallery to see an exhibition "Alvar Aalto: Through The Eyes of Shigeru Ban". When I observed Aalto's drawing, I found his plan includes the detail of materials, plants, and even shadow by leaves and skylights.
The exhibition space was surrounded by paper structures designed by Shigeru Ban. The waving structure covered the ceiling, and partitioned the exhibition space into several sections, and Lights through the gaps between paper pipes created beautiful lines of light.
