<p align="justify">The city of Bandung has long been known as a creative city and has given birth to influential artists in the development of art in Indonesia, especially contemporary art. However, as the development of art that continues to occur in the city of Bandung, the provision of art space for artists, art communities, and art connoisseurs are still considered less. Though the space to work, discuss, appreciate, document the work, education, and art recreation is needed. Thus, the project is designed to accommodate a variety of art activities especially contemporary art. The art museum project, which is located at Jalan Soekarno Hatta, aims to accommodate educational activities about the development of Indonesian contemporary art, as well as a place for artists to gather and showcase their works. There are also design-issues that become the focus on designing this project, such as circulation, ambience, and flexibility. The term 'Art is universal' became the origin of the development of ideas in which the building of this art museum must be able to accommodate all artistic activities and society of any class, so that came the idea of the concept of 'Welcoming Art Space for All' on the design of the Museum of Contemporary Art in Bandung. The project is designed with a unique form approach to be able to demonstrate its identity as a building of the Museum of Contemporary Art. Easy maintenance is also an aspect of attention as this building is a government building initiated by the Government of Bandung. The result of the design is a museum building with an interesting shape with open public space that can invite the community to do art activities in it.<p align="justify">
