该项目的灵感来源于靠近海湾的位置和项目的需求，这是一个超现实的设计展览空间。OCT设计博物馆主要关注时装秀、产品设计和概念性汽车展览。

The inspiration for the project comes from both the location being close to the bay and from the needs of the program, a surreal space for design exhibitions. The Oct design museum focuses mainly on fashion shows, product design, and conceptual automotive shows.

其目的是创造一个空间，这是超现实的主题，但也超越周围和感觉。内部的设计依赖于一个连续的白色弯曲表面，它没有阴影，也没有深度。

 The goal was to create a space that is surreal to the subject matter but also transcendental in surrounding and feeling. The design of the interior relies on a continuous white curving surface that casts no shadows and has no depth.

其结果是一个超现实无边界的空间似乎进入无限，类似于詹姆斯特雷尔装置的感觉。效果就像身处云雾中。这座建筑成了一个空白的超现实世界的背景，只有小三角形的窗户随机散落，就好像它们是飞行中的鸟儿一样。

The result is a surreal borderless space that seems to go on into the infinite, similar to the feeling of a James Turrell installation. The effect is like being in a cloudor dense fog. The building becomes a blank surreal background, with only small triangular windows scattered randomly, as if they were birds in flight. 

通常，一辆汽车看起来非常沉重，但在这个无限的空间里，它变得失重，让它的曲线、阴影和强烈的颜色成为展览的焦点。大楼一楼设有入口大堂和咖啡厅，第二层和第三层主要是展览空间。存储空间均匀地分布在地板上，可移动的墙壁使展览空间在规模和功能上非常灵活。

Typically an automobile looks very heavy but in this limitless space it becomes weightless, letting its curves, shadows, and intense colors become the focal point of the show. The first floor of the building holds the entry lobby and café, while the second and third is mainly exhibition space. Storage space is spread out evenly through the floors, with movable walls allow the exhibition spaces to be very flexible in scale and function.

建筑的外部形态是内部连续弯曲空间的直接反映。光滑的有机形态具有类似的超现实而超验的效果，当在它的城市环境中看到外面。

The exterior form of the building is a direct reflection of the continuous curving space inside. The smooth organic form has a similar surreal yet transcendental effect when seen outside in its urban setting. 

在它的景观中，建筑物的形状似乎漂浮在地面之上，仿佛它不是来自这个星球。在离海洋300米的地方，我们在海滩上发现的光滑的石头中汲取了灵感。它就像一块纯粹光滑的石头，卡辛到了一个没有完全饱和的德班环境。

Set into its landscape, the building’s form seems to float above the ground, as if it was not from this planet. Being 300 meters from the ocean, we took inspiration in the smooth stones found along the beach. It is like a purely smooth stone castin to a no verly saturate durban setting.
