其目的是创造一个温和的地标，并反映出该镇的文化多样性-一个装着文化珍宝的珠宝盒。重叠蛇皮阳极铝板，在5种颜色的金银，螺旋上升周围的建筑物。在自然的启发下，包层图案暗示着鱼身上的侧线是为了平衡而发现的。运河一侧的雪松覆层反映了更柔软的自然环境。

 The aim was to create a gentle landmark and reflect the culture diversity of the town – a jewellery box to contain cultural treasures. Overlapping snakeskin anodised aluminium panels, in 5 shades of gold and silver, spiral up around the building. The cladding pattern, inspired by nature, suggests the lateral line found on fish for balance. The canal side cedar cladding reflects the softer, natural environment.

马克·巴菲尔德(MarkBarfield)希望建造一座低能耗建筑，以达到沃金(Woking)作为英国最环保的行政区的声誉。顶部照明的中庭提供循环，定位和显示空间。屋顶灯提供自然光，并利用PVS发电。二色条纹玻璃在太阳下产生壮观的彩虹反射。建筑物是高度绝缘和自然通风，除了主要的画廊。热水来自该镇的CHP系统。

Marks Barfield wanted to create a low energy building to live up to Woking’s reputation as the UK’s greenest borough. The top lit atrium provides circulation, orientation and display space. Rooflights give natural light and generate electricity using PVs. Dichroic striped glass create spectacular rainbow reflections in the sun. The building is highly insulated and naturally ventilated in all but the main galleries. Hot water comes from the town’s CHP system.
