P10. Physical Setting

Another subset of place is the physical setting of the event. It explains the design and layout of the venue including the consideration of open spaces, viewing areas, and essential service facilities such as lifts and escalators.


The Biennale is on-going at several locations in the heart of town, and the 2 main building/structures are under conservation orders, thus the design and layout of it is untouched, kept in their original state. This event takes place in solid buildings and no tents or temporary skirting is being built, thus the design and layout cannot be altered.


However, although spaces cannot be changed or moved, all the viewing areas and open spaces are fully maximized and utilized. Each artwork is placed in a strategic location where it can bring out the most of a customer’s experience. I feel that for this part, the planning done is very meticulous. Any festival or event that is to be held in future, readers please take note, full maximize the place to their potential and remember to plan first before making decisions!
