Plans; showing the specifics of the structure. The skin pattern creates a solid mullion and the 'open'/'closed' component of the skin creates a window. The dotted lined notate the overhang of the oblique walls. The structure pattern overlaid on the floor creates a glass tiling system, as shown previous here. Sections; highlighting the overlapping program, structural system and 'open'/'closed' skin system.
Additional program studies, looking at the square footage requirements as a volume and stricter public/private and age devised spaces. By taking those requirements and arranging them according to previous programmatic goals, I discovered new sectional aspects of the program.
Mapping the 'e-coli basic unit patterns' over site analysis information, to create a new layered system of patterns. Then, picking a reoccurring module and a series of connections between them to fabricate larger patterns for skin and structural manipulation.
A detailed lookinto every building facade, between Broadway & Bowery on Bond St & Great Jones St. Every facade drawn in AutoCAD, diagrammed in Illustrator, modeling in Rhino, rendered with V-Ray.
Preliminary site analysis. Lafayette St. & Bond St, New York, NY. Upon visiting the site, I was particularly intrigued by traffic swarms, human 'swarms' and the vastly differing facades.
