INTERMEDIATE UNIT 4 - ARCHITECTURAL ASSOCIATION Envelop(e): locus Michel Da Costa Goncalves, Nathalie Rozencwajg IN:BETWEEN The proposal isolates a given block from its immediate surroundings within the city. The conditions I wish to integrate are aimed at projecting scenarios in terms of spatial arrangements: generating privacy within the core of the structure whilst allowing for degrees of porosity to emerge by rendering the block’s envelope more heterogeneous.

Overlap areas:
Unfolding of plot faces: frame, facade projection and surface The plot envelope’s four main faces are here reinterpreted in the otpic of enabling local parametres to affect each fragment of the building. Localism is an aspect sought to be augmented for the block to obtain a connection with its environment: The streets spanning each side of the envelope contain qualities that will affect the facade they are connected to.
