ARCH 1102 - PROJECT 2-Explaination of Ideas

My design embraces five main ideas.

Firstly, from the whole view of my site design, the relationship between landscape and building is important. The large amount of grassland is important and the grassland is used for public sitting area which also connects different zones together. 

Secondly, the free access of workshop and the ambiguity between enclosure and open of the building is emphasized by the use of free standing wall in workshop and the  folded plans which can be seen in the drawings.

Thirdly, the continuity of kiosk and workshop is expressed from the use of ''L'' shape and two layers of the roof. The dialogue between two buildings with different function can be easily shown.

Fourthly,the liner elements which are the columns are used to add some kind of privacy or some kind of opening for the design. For example, the columns used for the space between the public sitting area and the parking area create interesting spatial experience for visitors and the beam can be seen under the roof which also crates texture.

Fifthly, the easily access of the space from the street is emphasized. For example, the bike parking area is at the corner of two main streets which is convenient for using. The freestanding wall of workshop create the privacy for the workers but also the space of access  between two walls is welcoming gesture.
