Overview
"A vessel in the woods." Gehry’s metaphor situates the museum as a drifting craft among trees and paths at the Jardin d’Acclimatation.

- Seasonal light changes → facade livery.
- Water and gardens as programmatic extensions.
Concept Diagram
- Garden context → curved volumes.
- Timber arches → primary skeleton.
- Glass sails → weather, light, and motion.
