The diagrams illustrate the changes made to the Marlton Gallery after it was renovated.

Overall, the gallery was expanded with a new third floor and several facilities were relocated. The renovation also added new features such as a coat room, stairs, an education centre, and a parking lot.

Before the renovation, the gallery had two floors. On the ground floor, there was a gift shop on the left, a front desk in the middle, and a special exhibition on the right. The second floor contained a media room, a coffee shop, and a roof garden. A lift was located in the centre to connect both levels.

After renovation, the gallery had three floors instead of two. The first floor was reorganized, with the gift shop remaining but a coat room and stairs were added. The front desk was kept, and the right side became a parking lot. The special exhibition was moved to the second floor, along with the coffee shop, while the roof garden was removed. A new education centre was built on the third floor, next to the relocated media room.
