The diagrams are the existing and proposed floor plans for the redevelopment of an art gallery. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The first picture shows the layout of an art

gallery

and the second shows some proposed changes to the

gallery

space

.

It is clear that

significant changes will be made in terms of the use of floor

space

in the

gallery

. There will be a completely new entrance and more

space

for exhibitions. At present visitors enter the

gallery

through doors which lead into a lobby.

However

, the

plan

is to move the entrance to the Parkinson Court side of the building, and visitors will walk straight into the exhibition

area

. In place of the lobby and office areas, which are shown on the existing

plan

, the new

gallery

plan

shows an education

area

and a small storage

area

. The permanent exhibition

space

in the redeveloped

gallery

will be about twice as large as it is now because it will occupy the

area

that is

now used for temporary exhibitions. There will

also

be a new room for special exhibitions.

This

room is shown in red on the existing

plan

and is not currently part of the

gallery

.
