Everlasting Midterms
by caroothers
For the midterm review, I was able to lay out the full floor plan in order to fully understand the spaces that are created. The 8th scale model helped to understand the courtroom spaces that are created by the lines, intimately looking at the clerestory windows that provide light to the interior space. This model was better able to display the open spaces around the courtyards as public space. The floor plans and diagrams helped me to begin to understand the rules of this building and the spaces created within these lines.
The next steps in the process are digesting the exterior ground condition of these lines. I will be working on figuring out how these folded lines interact with the ground to create the interior spaces. The following studies will also explore the condition of the slope within the building site. The site plan will be able to be more developed through a series of design charettes exploring the building interaction with the site.
