circle.....
i think the circle is sometimes an issue.
I have impressive memory, when i was in an circle.
Especially i think circle is one of useful tools to make people pay attention to the center of it.
if an architect want to make people focus on the center, i think this is reasonable.
if the something that is in circle is 3- dementional and huge and the there are intresting things
on its surface, i think a cylinder for exhibation is so reasonable.
i just want to know others' opinions.

maybe rather than thinking of the finalized product of "the circle" think about what you want the space to do first and it may lead you to a circle (or maybe something else). It seems like you are trying to impose the form of the circle onto the program. maybe they should work more hand in hand...
James Turrell's skyspaces and Roden Crater, which are very much about the occulus... The Barossa Reservoir in Australia (although more parabolic than circular) is more about the circumference/edge.
check out Tadao Ando's Water Temple, it's actually oval in shape but the way you enter and experience the spaces is very dramatic..
