Master’s Thesis - The Dionysian Temple of Toronto
Address: 300 Queen St. West University of Waterloo School of Architecture Thesis Supervisor: Dereck Revington Duration: 1 Year 8 months January 2019 - August 2020
Friedrich Nietzsche
Dionysus
Dionysian Festival
Nightclub Culture
Introduction and Overview - This thesis investigates the life-affirming Dionysian philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche and how its components can be translated into a Dionysian temple. Large
concerts, raves, and festivals are highly comparable to the spirit of Dionysian festivals. In these settings participants can lose their individuality in the moment and transcend their suffering for a moment in time. Clubbers will parallel Dionysian orgies through the enjoyment of music, dancing, sexual liberation, and induction of states of intoxication and ecstasy. Additional similarities include the application of makeup and clothing, and the induction of ecstasy through alcohol, cannabis, and other party drugs. Lastly, a bathhouse is implemented to evoke the sensual and sexual nature of Dionysus.
Bathhouse - Bathhouses remain important places in contemporary cities.The sexual component of bathhouses in Toronto can be found mostly within gay culture. The bathhouses of Toronto constitute cruising spaces for sexual interaction. It is a normal occurrence to see men engaged in sexual acts in steam rooms, saunas, and private rooms. Along with sexual activity, the bathhouse will serveas a sensorial space that uses touch, sight, and smell to take people to another world and state of being. A full spectrum of water temperatures are provided to off er a range of bodily experiences
Martial Arts - The grand dome is a space where those practicing any form of martial arts can
come together, affirm their life, and assert their will to power. Thus, gluttony and lust for violence come together in this space, allowing for the more primordial desires and immodest pleasures to come to the fore. In addition, its radial shape alludes to ancient Greek theatres, such as the Theatre of Dionysus in Athens, Greece. Both the dome and ancient Greek theatres also have a central focal point, occupied by fi ghters and musicians in the former, and the tragic set in the latter.
2
Abstract Expressionist Art as Tragic Dionysian Delerium and Insight - The aesthetics and principles of abstract art are used as a design strategy to conceive of a temple that expresses a primordial, and thus Dionysian, state of mind. The development of abstract art calls for a diversion from faithful appearances and instead exploring a world of deeper emotion and the instinctual, more unconscious Dionysian state of being. When Cubism and abstract art came into the foreground after mimetic art, “real resemblance no longer had any importance.”The abstract art movement replaced painting a reflection of human beauty, also known as reality of sight, with the reality of insight – a tragic Dionysian insight – which “destroyed illusion and revealed truth.” The abstract expressionist works of Wassily Kandinsky, Kazimir Malevich, and El Lissitzky are used as inspiration for the design of the temple.

McLaughlin Planetarium - 1968 Technological Intervention as Insight - The museum
is a celebration and representation of architecture through its approaches toward communication, intervention, and experimentation. The goal is ultimately to change the way we normally interact, think, and feel about architecture. Provoking insight by means of architectural interventions and new technologies will be utilized.
An Architecture of Place - Locus is Latin for Place. Locus is a centre dedicated to educating the public on the architecture of place and its elements can serve to give people a deeper insight as to what is architecture. Aspects of school and museum will enter a symbiotic relationship to feed and grow each other to create an insightful building.

Technological Intervention as Insight - The museum is a celebration and representation of architecture through its approaches toward communication, intervention, and experimentation. The goal is ultimately to change the way we normally interact, think, and feel about architecture. Provoking insight by means of architectural interventions and new technologies will be utilized.
Architecture of Empathy - Mixed Reality will be used to emulate different jobs related to con-
struction in order to give everyday people the opportunity to see what it is like to work these jobs.
17
Music as Liquid Architecture - Architecture will be taught from a point of view where it is not merely associate with building, but deals with the structure of things over many disciplines such as music.
Inner Street and Historical Preservation - The museum will also deal with representing architecture by preserving and restoring existing architectural history. Buildings from three different eras will be unified with an interior street, creating an interstitial space for users to occupy. Pedestrians accustomed to using the North Alley as a circulation path will be able to access the interior atrium, drawing unsuspecting visitors and participants in the architecture.
Intermeshed Landscapes : Architecture as Communication - New forms of information communciation technology will be used to educate people on architecture
VR Flight Simulation - Equipment such as virtual reality flying simulators will be utilised to offer new experience and insight on architecture and the city.
18
Juxtaposed Geometries - the spacial, formal, and atmospheric qualities of the East and west programs are juxtaposed, emphasing a distinction between the two buildings. The existing building and new addition have an identity and Personality of their own. The planetarium is given organic geometries in a darker, organic environment, whereas the addition is given a lighter, rational Environment.
Nesting - Nesting/layering of architectural and prorammatic elements serves As a simple yet bold ordering principle. This nesting serves to buffer noise, Light, sound, and temperate variations, creating functional yet rich spaces. The Circular structural plan of the planetarium called for circular geometries to continue to order the building. Servant spaces are allocated to the perimetre of the planetarium.

Climate Room - A play of Place
Attributes and Variables of Place
Climate Room - The Climate room is a program serving as the heart of the cube-shaped addition. It is capable of emulating rain, wind, fog. Furthermore, it can emulate seismic activity due to its moveable base through the use of hydraulics. A dedicated chiller and air handling unit is located on the roof to allow for large temperature fluxations ranging from sub-zero to tropical.
Climate Room : A Play of Place - The notion of place as collection of attributes and qualites will be deconstructed and recombined in a way that gives insight to people on how we preceive place. Qualities can be amplified, supressed, distorted, or removed in controlled environments such as the climate room. 24
Dalseong Citizen’s Gymnasium International Architecture Competition - Break in Nature Award: 3rd Place Group Competition: Daniel Bassakyros, John Han, Ruslan Ivanytskyy, Hrishikesh Tailor Role: Designer 130 Hyeonpungjungang-ro, Dalseong-gun, Daegu, South Korea Duration: 2 Months July 2014 - September 2014
Layered View The decision to excavate and change the contours was essential to create a sense of enclosure while exercising within the gymnasium. To create a peaceful environment that references the calm nature of the site, the gym was placed at the bottom of the hill so that the view from within blocks out all man-made buildings. The foreground is created through the diverse variety of native flowers and plants while the background is provided by the mountainous terrain in the background. The combination of all 3 elements creates a poetic composition that contributes to the serenity of the building. Exercising with Nature When deciding on the form and positions of the building, a sense of connectivity between the exterior and interior was essential to achieve this. The building was broken into its individual program requirements and arranged in a manner that allowed nature to seep inside. The proximity to the ground level and the courtyards found within the building create a calm, serene atmosphere where one feels surrounded by the natural environment around them.
Green Shadow The arrangement of the required program areas and their relationship with the courtyards was developed in a way that would create the sensation of being among the exterior environment while indoors. The effect of the green shadow is achieved when light hits the vegetation and casts a shadow into the space. Every courtyard spills the “green shadow” into different spaces depending on the time of day, creating a dynamic indoor and outdoor environment.
Design Methodology - Sketches were photgraphed and resketched over as a part of the design process
Site Plan - The Gymnasium Complex lays on a highly contoured site. The orientation and placement of programs attempted to create unique moments with program, especially the gymnasium

Parti: Speculation and Actualization of the circle. Narrative with the senses around the circle. Centre and circle as establishment of order
Speculation : Exterior
Actualization : Interior Newton`s Cenotaph, Étienne-Louis Boullée, 1784
The Mapping Centre serves as an architecture of viewing traditional and state of the art mapping equipment, while educating students and inhabitants of cartography’s greater role in society. 32

Throughout time, the circle has been understood as a metaphor, given meaning as a euclidean shape that when preceived from its exterior, is speculated to contain an interior. Being in-tune with the centre of the circle brings insight into our own lives. Every era has used the circle’s meaning in different ways, but all point to its role of orientating ourselves in the cosmos, establishing order in our lives. It is the circle’s existential role of orientating and measuring humanity with the cosmos that it find itself in a mapping museum.

Townhouse Peter Zumthor Portlands, Toronto, Ontario RU - Architectural Science ASC401 - Design Studio - Year 2 Instructor: Olena Kobets-Singh Duration: 4 Weeks September 2014 - October 2014
The goal of this project is to design a house for a client of your choice. By choosing Peter Zumthor as a client, I had to accomodate for his unique lifestyle and family schedule. In particular, the dichotomies of the city and nature, and melancholy and comfort were explored. Thresholds, spacial scale, and materiality were major components to the creation of atmospheres to evoke the feelings that makes Peter feel at home.
Monk by the Sea Caspar David Friedrich, 1810 The idea - The landscape - “ I see a man looking at the horizon line of the ocean with his back to the painter. Like the painter and the man in the painting, I look at the landscape, at the painted horizon, and feel the grandeur and vastness. A certain melancholy comes to the fore, imbued with the sense of a world that is infinitely bigger than I am but offers me sanctuary. In addition to the feeling that nature is close to me and yet larger that I am, landscape also gives me the feeling of being at home” - Peter Zumthor, Thinking Architetcure
Siteplan
Portlands, Ontario - Townhouse by the Lake The idea - the City “I would describe the distinction between city and landscape like this: cities tend to excite and agitate me; they make me feel big or small, slef-confident, proud, curious, escited, tense, annoyed... or they intimidate me. But the landscape, it if give it the chance, offers me freedom and serenity. 38 - Peter Zumthor, Thinking Architetcure

Concept - Spatio-Kinetics in Architecture - This project investigates and unfolds the language of movement and it’s relation to boundaries and enclosure. Movement is seen as a mediator between inside and outside
space, which also has the ability to blur boundaries. This project also looks at how different architectural elements found in our architectural repertoire assist in the development of a spatio-kinetic language and experience.
55 The careful articulation of space, form, and visual perception is done in a manner that exemplifies the notion of Architecture as a moving body with dynamic boundaries.

Design Methodology - The design was refined as I revised various drawings, working out details and localized conditions. I also looked for emerging languages that coincided with producing an exposition of movement, boundary, and enclosure. I attempted to ensure that every architectural element was relevant and complimented the micro and macro level of the project, meaning that details and overall composition were of importance.

North Elevation Site - Wooded Lot - This studio is located on a residential lot containing a mild rolling landscape in Ontario Canada. Located south of the Studio is a heavily wooded area. The studio is located South of and within walking distance of an Architect’s living quarters. The North facade’s opaque wall-like nature gives a sense of privacy to the studio, juxtaposing the visually open program behind the wall.

Washroom and Studio (looking West) - The program left of the wall (white) contains a transverse movement, whereas the program right of the wall contains a longitudinal movement. The pool beyond can be seen interpenetrating both sides of the wall.
Patio (looking East) - The table is aligned and set into to the walls to project the view outward. A structural beam (red) runs the length of the studio, further emphasizing the longitudinal movement. The Slopping landscape and infinity pool (grey) emphasize a transverse movement.

Gardiner Expressway Revilization
Group Project: Daniel Bassakyros, Andreh Custantin, Daniel Petrocelli, Mashroor Ishraque Lakeshore Boulevard East and Lower Sherbourne Street, Toronto, Ontario ASC403- Site Developement and Planning - Year 2 Instructor: Leila Marie Farah Duration: 2 Weeks February 2014 - March 2014 Ryerson University Architectural Science
The intent of this revitilization is to implement zoning regulations and urban design princples which are conducive to an active and successful streetscape. The existing raised highway called the Gardiner Expressway has been standing since the 1960s and is currently in a state of deterioration. The current gardiner situation segregates older urban renewal housing with future condominum developments. By removing and burrying the existing gardiner expressway, the visual reception between the north mid-century renewal developments and the proposed condos along the waterfront will be improved. In addition, a Light rail transit (LRT) artery has been implemented to serve as a relief line for commuters traveling between the downtown core and feeder cities.

Section BB
Section AA Two proposed commerical-residential point towers are propsed, having the first two floors as commercial space and the remainder being residential. Commerical space situated on the lower floors encourages local residents and visitors. Generous glazing along Lower Sherbourne street in the form of large garage-like openings give additional interaction between the proposed buildings and the adjacent plaza. This activates the public domain aspect of this plaza, electrifying the street.

Cloud - Tyvek serves as the skin of the structure, permitting natural light to enter through varying layers of the Sukkah. Fire (Light) - Digital light in the form of LEDs will be used as a contemporary version of fire. Amber lights are placed at incremental levels washing the interior with an amber glow.

Sukkahs in the City - The Sukkah makes a clear distinction existed between day and night. Cloud & Light as a contemporary interpretation of this ancient dichotomy is able to unify into an architecture of the contemporary era. This is the discourse the contemporary Sukkah has with its setting in an urban environment. Just as the modern city never sleeps, Cloud & Light is able to utilize digital light as the “new fire�, allowing the Sukkah to remain awake eternally.
