Radiation Therapy: Phase 1

This is Phase 1 of Radiation Therapy.  I began exploring integration into the landscape and the public versus private entities.  For architectural precendence, I was inspired by Tschumi's Parc de la Villette, Russell Thomsen and Eric Kahn's Thinking the Future of Auschwitz, and Deconstructivism.

Both the public and private entities are integrated into the landscape, however they are separated by a wall (green).  This wall was supposed to be a "wall of information" that demarcated the public and private spaces, guided the public through the area, and helped give the public insight to what happens in the private area.

I wanted to make the public space based off of the organic nature of forest succession and the private space based off of the tectonic movement of succession.  All of the transformations to the landscape are based off of chosen grid points.
