Precedent Projects
Dominant Formal Characteristics
This project is about creating a building form that engages its context through loose figural associations and dramatic volumetric propositions enabled by structurally expressive cantilevered spaces. The project combines characteristics associated with strong figural forms and buildings that are considered tectonically (structurally) expressive. The superimposition of two formal typologies creates interior spaces for the program that expose the strategy of collage via hybridization. Visually, the project is trying to build a form of multiple loose figural association, allowing multiple readings for the individual viewer.
