3/4 Jury: Where is the Architecture?

The title pretty much sums up what I need to do until final jury. More architecture, more 'Adam' in the buildings instead of the banality of minimalist architecture.

Clarity through plans is essential for the conveyance of ideas


The potential of viewing areas: This site and buildings have the potential to view Serra, etc from ABOVE, something that no other facility can really provide. Show this more, and capitalize on it.

Site plan with interaction of the buildings, of the site with the buildings, of the site with the surrounding community.

What is the experience of the site and of the architecture, this should be Jewish Museum-esque in that it can be interesting and exciting when there arent any exhibits or works of art inside. Make the architecture an exhibit in itself.

Take a creative leap - make my own sculptural intervention that is enjoyable as an experience by itself and one that interlaces itself with the community (do a section trhough the site and the surrounding community)

* Site plan, engagement of outside space, communal involvement, and 'Adam' space *

More to follow soon but I gotta get to the paper for now
