Through rigorous analysis of the site I discovered a set of sedimentary information that revealed qualities of the site that informed the design.
The urban stratification revealed three different layers, which include scale, edge typology, and block geometry. The design addresses edge of the site through a strategic positioning of the program correlating to making adjacent to the cemetery. Scale is address through the double height spaces and moments that allow the users to be above the sites trees. Finally, the block geometry is address through the two programmatic bars that are positioned on the same direction of the sites geometry.
