X美术馆旨在成为北京年轻一代的新文化场所。当代艺术正在我们这个信息爆炸且相互交织的时代中持续发展。面对各种不确定的因素，应当如何去塑造我们的文化空间？

X Museum is designed to become a new cultural place for the younger generation in the city of Beijing. Contemporary art is constantly evolving in our time of endless information and their complex intersections. How should one shape our cultural spaces in response to such times of uncertainty?

“X”字母被用作美术馆的主要标志，在入口处呈现为两根相交的“H”形结构柱，为宽阔的弧形屋顶提供了支撑。屋顶表面上的穿孔能够滤过光线，在入口空间投下光影。由两条线组成的“X”图形还寓意着最基本的交互形式，与美术馆在多学科方面的努力形成呼应：除了艺术家的作品之外，X美术馆还展示来自建筑师、科学家、工程师、音乐家和设计师的作品。

The letter X is used as the main symbol of the museum at the entrance as an intersection of two H-beams supporting each other structurally. The crossed-braced structure holds the large curving roof that is perforated to filter patterns of light into the entrance space. The diagram of the X composed of two lines is signified as the most basic form of interaction. The museum also dedicates itself to being multidisciplinary show not only artists, but also architects, scientists, engineers, musicians, and designers.

美术馆的南立面覆盖着由54个灯箱构成的矩阵。这些突出的方形结构在灰泥墙面上投下整齐的阴影，并会根据太阳的位置发生角度和长度的变化。到了夜里，嵌入结构内的射灯将点亮外墙，创造全新的光影图案。同时，这些结构也可以用来悬挂巨幅海报或用于各类美术馆活动的宣传。

The South Façade is covered with a matrix of 54 steel light boxes. These protruded rectilinear structures cast an array of shadows onto the grey stucco wall. The angle and the lengths of the shadows constantly change throughout the day according to the solar position. Downlights are also embedded into the box to light up the façade creating another kind of pattern during the nighttime. These structures can also be used to hang large posters or displays that may be required by the museum for different events.

以“如何将艺术品悬挂在墙上”这一最基本的问题为出发点，设计团队重新思考了艺术空间的可能形态。借助定制的赤陶砖构件，金属材质的夹子得以被置入墙壁的缝隙，使绘画、装置、投影仪甚至白色墙壁都可以被悬挂在这个墙面系统上。这种做法使得美术馆超越了寻常的白色方盒子空间，为观者带来一种全新的布置和展示艺术品的方式。

TEMP aims to rethink how art spaces could be imagined first by asking the most basic questions as in how a painting should be hung on a wall. Custom made terracotta bricks are extruded with horizontal slots to which metal clips can be installed to hang artworks. Paintings, installations, projectors, and even white walls could be hung onto this wall system. There is an overflow of white and concrete box museums. X Museum offers a newer way of installing and showing artworks.

X美术馆是一个鼓励创新和激发未知可能性的艺术空间，它的设计向人们展示并例证了一种新的当代美术馆范式。对于将北京作为活动中心的各个领域的创意人而言，X美术馆将成为一个独一无二且富有凝聚力的场所。

X Museum is an art space that encourages innovation and stimulates unknown possibilities. The design of the museum is a statement showing how a contemporary museum could be re-imagined. It is a one-of-a-kind center for creatives of all disciplines based in the heart of Beijing.
