This project proposes a winery in an urban context by displacing wine production from its traditionally agrarian setting. It takes as its starting point a linear production line: harvesting the grapes, de-stemming, fermenting, aging, bottling, and storage. It examines how this linear system reacts in a compact urban condition, looping back over itself to create spatial opportunities not otherwise seen and experienced in a linear system. As the wings of the form begin to turn along with its system it begins to create programmatic and volumetric relationships. The resulting spaces substitute for the agrarian ideal.
