Complete site mapping and diagramming
Larger scales, smaller areas
-Focusing in on design info and areas
Site sections
-Diagram sections
-East/west and north/south drawings
Working towards a workable scale for a model
Access to buildings:
Pathways that lead throughout site can lead through the buildings providing a glimpse of what goes on inside, but not allow access to the interiors, providing a connection and association between community and artist therefore avoiding the divide created as the result of a barrier (i.e. new Tyler school building vs. CEA building, and Arch students vs. Engineering students) This can also arise through the use of a 'spraypaint wall' such as the photo merge presented today:
Look at juxtaposition of elements such as BCJ's Apple Store and Grand Central Station's interior squash courts.
Use the site as a resource for labor and input, not just labor... greenspace will become vital for neighborhood use due to the lack of its availability within the city.
Case studies:
Monte Martini, EUR Rome
Grand Central Station; Squash courts
BCJ's Apple Store, Manhatan
James Stirling's State Gallery, Stuttgart
'Pecker' - John Waters' 1998 film
More to follow this week...
