ARPL 302
Spring 2015
Critic: Sophia Gruzdys
The idea behind the building is the interaction between day and night. The design takes a single unit and pulls it across the site to form a perimeter block. Like music, it creates a rhythm that dictates the movement between the spaces. This system is then bent by the site forces. The bend creates a space that promotes movement through the building. It becomes the point where the spaces of the day meet the spaces of the night. This interaction creates a dynamic where the building is always in use. From dawn to dusk, the building is alive.
