The Interlace ( 2nd Place at USC Healthcare Studio 2018)

The project is titled  The Interlace as it explores ways of merging the site and the building to create a fluid non-building inspired by the contours and themes from the original park that was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright.

The eastern perimeter of the site faces issues such as homeless                          encroaching, poor maintenance, drug abuse, and vandalism. The study of older Barnsdall Park acknowledged that regarding the current site with original contours is beneficial not just for the users of the rehabilitation center but also for the local community that needs a place to heal.

The design proposed the roof imagined as a walking ramp that is an extension of the topography connecting the North-South Planes and East-West connection.
