| The scope of the work includes exterior, interior, furnishing, landscape and signage. Special-order aluminum panel covers the exterior as a new façade as well as shade under tropical sunshine. Interior was furnished with new and smooth exhibition walls and new lighting fixtures. Garden space once surrounded by fence is now open to the street, and custom-made benches were installed. The concrete floor around the building was engraved with stripes and filled with turf after peeling off the old tiles. A large tree in front of the building was saved. |
