SJSUAM
San Jose State University Art Museum
with Claudette Bleijenberg
Competition, Honorable Mention
San Jose, California 2003
This new museum, located in the heart of an urban campus, and embraced by the existing art building, unifies a range of activities, and engages its environment while creating a haven where art and education can thrive.
Sited along the 9th Street Paseo, the museum is inserted into a courtyard of gardens divided by patios that is a metaphor for the Silicon Valley. The gardens depict the plains and mountains of the silicon valley, while the pavement and low walls help to recreate the tense relationship that exists between the infrastructures that grid the valley, and the valley itself.
