The Ocular Promenade is a workshop that also acts as a traversable corridor between contrasting urban surfaces. It adaptively reuses a pre-existing warehouse in the iconic brewery district of Cincinnati, which bridges natural lush topography and urbanity. The figural additions/subtractions, namely the circular “Oculus” addition and the linear light well subtraction both utilize double-glazed polycarbonate with steel framing and staircase membranes, with circulatory programs leading to the hill corridors, roof gardens, and interior program. It is my vision for a flexible-use space with figural spatial strategies that harmoniously connects starkly contrasting ground conditions.
