When the people visiting museum. The people not only can appreciate works of art at inside，but also in order to enjoy the atmosphere of inside, feelings of artistic parcels can make of my heart are related to flow with the pace of the exhibition. Therefore, the overall atmosphere of a good exhibition for the Museum and exhibits should be mutually harmonious.
In the present society, the Art Museum has become the representative of the country or city，It is the performance of the historical heritage of a country or city, the best representatives of the cultural enrichment.
The location of the Grand Rapids museum is a very smart place， situated in the center of the city downtown, next to Central Park, and convenient transportation. Every day there are vehicles coming and going through here, where most places, there are many people gathered in the park, this park as an oasis in the high-rise buildings into the same role, while the art museum is a Inn next to the oasis. The park and the art Museum become a financial landscape.
External
This museum’s architectural style is kind of modern building and irregular geometry shape. Three pillars support the top brushing of the museum at the front of the door, pick the top is very long, a good depth of space, people's visual concentration and the door. These three pillars unlike normal columns, they are very thin, and wanted to three walls. The use of such pillars of the facade of the museum is simple atmospheric. Columns in the building construction is a very important role it plays to support the roof, forming the role of the facade, columns often become the visual focus of the facade. Use this column not only played a supporting role, also played a beautiful role.
Modern architecture in the form of free, simple shapes, focus on functional, economic rationality, there is no decoration or a small amount of decorative features and a new style of the era. The design of this Art Museum is also very good that should be positive.
当人们走进美术馆的一刻。人们不仅仅是为了欣赏里面的艺术作品。同时也是为了去享受一种里面的氛围，被艺术包裹的感受可以让整颗心都跟随着展览的步调流动。所以，对于一个好的展览来说博物馆的整体气氛和展品也要互相融洽。
在现在的社会，艺术博物馆已成为国家或城市的代表，是表现一个国家或城市历史积淀，文化修养最好的代表。
Grand Rapids博物馆的选址非常聪明，它坐落在这座城市downtown最中心的地方，在中心公园的旁边，交通便利。每天都会有来来往往的车辆经过这里，同时这里也是人最多的地方，有许多人聚集在公园里，在高楼大厦之中这个公园作为一个绿洲一样的角色出现，而美术馆则是绿洲旁的驿站。公园和这美术馆融为一道风景。
外部
美术馆的建筑风格偏现代化建筑，为不规则几何图形。在大门处的挑顶有三根柱子支撑，挑顶很长，形成了一个很好的纵深空间，使人的视觉完全集中与大门。这三根柱子不像普通的柱子，他们都很薄，就想三面墙壁一样。运用这样的柱子使博物馆的门面显得简洁大气。在建筑构造中柱子是一个很重要的角色，它起着支撑屋顶、形成立面的作用，所以柱子经常成为立面的视觉焦点。所以运用这样的柱子不仅起到了支撑作用，也起到了美观的作用。
现代建筑以形式自由、造型简洁、注重功能、经济合理，没有装饰或少量装饰的特点而成为时代的新风格。这座美术馆的设计也很好的应正了这一点。
内部
美术馆的内部分为三层。大体为中线分割，左右对称。
There is a restaurant at first floor. The wall is put some large glasses together, looking from the inside you can see the park. From outside of the windows is a small pool. The Reflective of the indoor floor and the view of the solution and as a whole.
在博物馆的一层有一个餐厅，摆放着整齐的桌椅。墙壁是一大面玻璃窗户。从室内向往看去正好可以看到公园的一片绿色。窗户外面是一个小型的水池。室内地板的反光和外面的水溶为一体。
而且The grey water is used by the reflecting pool and water wall in the pocket park next to the entrance, to irrigate plants and trees on the site, and for toilet flushing.
By reusing collected rainwater in this way,
GRAM estimates it will reduce its demand for city-treated water by 20%.
This reflects the principle of environmental protection of the museum. After the cognitive you realize not only on this side, and from other side this museum can improve environmental protection
Within the museum is open type. Couse we don’t have to consider the issue of sound insulation in the art Museum.
So walls in this museum are thin , it should be plaster wall, a good partition of the exhibition space.
这体现了博物馆环保的一面。其实在了解过之后，也能从其他的地方看出博物馆环保的一面。
博物馆的内部是开放式的，因为在美术博物馆里不用考虑到隔声的问题。所以博物馆里的墙壁都是很薄的，应该是石膏墙，好的分划了展览空间。
Visitors through the stairs, platforms and bridges and go to each exhibition room. Staircase guardrail’s material is glass, not only transparent but also sturdy. The stairs are Turn back style to create a sense of space, can fully feel the layer of space traveled. The internal structure of the exhibition rooms are straight, I think that because it is more convenience to observation and management. If not, there will has too many obstacles to hinder their sight. Windows for the lobby are large glass. On The one hand, the room lit during the day and also saves a lot of electricity. On the other hand there may be some light pollution. The inside of Glass hanging curtains like yarn, perhaps in order to prevent the sun is too strong. In the museum most of the lighting is light. What is a other way to lighting the room?
There are two skylights in the third floor exhibition hall of the leftmost and rightmost. Although, there are curtains hanging on the windows. I think this is a very good design, can the introduction of indoor light, can bring the light introduce indoor. And only the top level in order can achieve such an effect, like a small attic
观众通过楼梯、平台和天桥出入各个展览室。楼梯护栏的材料是强化玻璃，不仅通透而且坚固。
楼梯是折回似的， 很好的创造了空间感，在走过的时候能充分的感受到一层的空间。
览室内部结构都是笔直的，我认为是方便工作人员观察和管理，因为如果设有太多障碍会阻碍他们的视线。
博物馆的一层大厅用了大面积的玻璃。在一方面室内的光线充足，同时在白天也节省了大量的电力。但是在另一方面可能会有一些光污染。玻璃内侧悬挂着像纱一样的窗帘，也许是为了防止太阳照射过于强烈。而在展览室内大部分照明的都是灯，也有着哄托博物馆气氛的作用。还有一种照明的方法是什么呢？
在第三层的最左边和最右边的展厅 分别有两个天窗。虽然我去的时候挂着窗帘。 但是我觉得这是一个很好的设计， 可以把光源引进室内， 而且只有顶层才能做到这样的效果，像一个小阁楼。

声光热（功能）
这座美术馆就如同一棵坐落在城市的大树，向着城市蔓延。
采光、玻璃窗的运用、建筑风格、通风装置、照明、视野、声音、视觉和色彩、百叶投影
一栋建筑的成功与否不仅仅取决于他的外观，建筑的核心功能是能够很好地控制声光热。
形式跟随功能是现代建筑的灵魂。
An architectural success or failure depends not only on his appearance, the building's core function is to control the sound of light and heat.
Form follows function is the soul of modern architecture.
