MULTIFARIOUS FUTURES LES HALLES 2030

LOCATION: LES HALLES PARIS, FRANCE
POST-HUMAN COMMERCE AND PUBLIC SPACE Located in the heart of Paris, Forum Les Halles is a site of prominence, history, and controversy. Since 1183, a market stood on its grounds, including iron structured halls designed in 1854, demolished in 1971 to make way for a the Metro, RER and shopping centre. Its inadequacies were addressed by an international design competition and the construction of a new retail centre, completed in 2015. While the new design is a substantial improvement, it has not radically reconsidered the nature of retail fit for the social and technological shift now taking place due to Industry 4.0. The central idea is the challenge of rethinking this urban space as a Posthuman opportunity. While Paris has been the site of seminal urban park concepts, Bernard Tschumi and OMA’s competition proposals for Park de la Villette are now 35 years old. The rise of Industry 4.0 may be potentially destabilising to urban space as is currently known, yet it offers new opportunities for establishing complex and dynamic relationships between a park’s myriad of occupants, from human gatherings to autonomous garbage disposal vehicles. Materials are also able to play more than passive roles in urban space. Agencies may be designed into the matter of construction itself, via passive and active agitation urban matter can respond to variations in gathering/crowd sizes, circulation types and volumes, and moments of congestion or seasonal transformation. The studio speculates on an alternative design proposal for Les Halles that connects to the existing Métro/RER rail station, provides autonomous car and air-taxi transportation, and reconsiders the role and scope of retail and public space within Paris’ urban centre, providing additional program or agencies that aim to invigorate public space or personalize retail experiences. The park will be redesigned as an urban green/hard-landscaping space that integrates “floating” transportation and active spaces that leverage industry 4 technologies, while offering a Posthumanist critique to seminal Parisian parks such as Parc de la Villette. The urban park is to be designed as an interactive, adaptive and agitate-able field of objects(organic and inorganic), materials, information, communications, and activities. Proposals will engage with timebased fluctuations in environment, use/event, circulation, energy, and means for appropriation, customisation, and creative subversion.

TOURING MACHINE GENERATING SPACES THROUGH A HAMILTONIAN PATH
10 | 11
LOCATION: DEXAMENI ATHENS, GREECE
GENERATING SPACES THROUGH HAMILTONIAN PATHS “KNIGHT’S TOUR” The brief was to design an abstract museum on the site of an abandoned water reservoir of the Hadrian aqueduct. Hadrian’s underground aqueduct was built by digging wells at certain points on the topography and then connecting these points with tunnels. So, the water flowing through the continuous tunnel visits every well or the point only once, during its tour from the mountains to the reservoirs in Dexameni square. Based on the movement of the water in Hadrian’s aqueduct, we wanted to create an architectural experience that mimics this flow. Our main goal was to create a tourable building with a continuous and uninterrupted flow where you don’t necessarily need to visit the same place more than once. Or with the words of ancient Greek philosopher, Heraclitus, we didn’t want the visitors to step in the same river more than once. We wanted them to flow freely like a river. This metaphorical concept led us to a more abstract mathematical concept which is called as Knight’s Tour. A knight’s tour is a sequence of moves of a knight on a chessboard such that the knight visits every square only once. During its tour, knight moves in an L-shape by moving 1 unit in x-axis and 2 units in y-axis or vice-versa. This property can be generalized for every couple of two numbers like 1 and 3, 2 and 4, 5 and 7, etc.
DETAIL CHUNK MODEL
On a two dimensional grid a knight has 8 possible moves. On a three dimensional grid the number of moves triples and there are 24 possible moves. These moves intersect each other at 10 different angles: L 36.87° L 53.13° L 66.42° L 78.46° L 90.00° L 101.54° L 113.58° L 126.87° L 143.13° L 180.00°

FORM AND ALGORITHM
The theme of the project is the aggregation of a discrete component using vectors and agents also known as “Discrete Assembly�. The discrete component was developed for the studio project we were working on at that time. The component has a euclidian geometric form. It also has the ability to connect to itself laterally and in 45 degrees and thus aggregate to more complex forms. To utilize and experiment this feature in an algorithmic manner, we developed a system that takes one discrete component and some initial vectors as input. Then it turns the initial vectors into agents. The agents interact with each other and follow each other's trail to grow. Then the code breaks the trails of the agents into polylines. Finally, the code orients the component mesh to these polylines creating an aggregation of the initial discrete component.

INTEGRATED PASSENGER & CARGO TERMINAL
DISCRETE ARCHITECTURE The design started with the study of bifurcating vector structures as wireframes and in the process, we developed the idea of discrete architectural elements. Combining the wireframe and the component we developed a system where spaces of multiple scale, quality and functionality can be achieved. Large scales components are connected each other to form a series of enclosed space. The connection between the large and medium components, on the other hand, are united to produce geometrical transparency in between. This transparency increases as the components become smaller, allowing for the most transparent glazed enclosures for restaurants, lounges, and atrium. When it reduces its scale further down, it creates linear paths for circulation for cargo, connection to the gates, and a channel to the air traffic control tower. Our discrete elements, thus, initiate the transitional scale of the architectural components, from Euclidean geometry to a machine aesthetic of the facade. This wide range of transformation allows for the replaceable element of the building. This makes the building not only look like a machine, but also act like one. For this reason, the formation of this airport does not gain a state of fixation, but rather grows through the replacement and.rearrangement of the components.

THE TREATMENT: It’s 2089. The economic and political situation in the US is the most turbulent it has been in centuries. A group of underground rebels is trying to organize a revolt against the corrupt government. The government term them as the “ANARCHISTS” and is adamant to defeat them by any means. As the rebellion grows stronger, the government launches a secret and controversial project to develop an army of robots that can self-replicate without the need of any additional resource. They succeed to develop an early prototype of the bio-mechanical robot and named it the “FETUS”. Though this development was kept in confidence, the rebellion learns about it and is determined to obtain it before the government proceeds to any further stage of development. MARIANNE, a young 25 years old rebel makes up a plan to abduct the “FETUS” from the secret government laboratory. She asks some of the fellow rebels to help her execute the plan. On the late night of St Patrick’s day, while the whole city is either drunk or asleep after a day-long celebration, MARIANNE arrives at the laboratory building behind everyone’s eyes. She succeeds to hack the security system, shuts down the alarms and breaks into the building. She takes the elevator to the floor where the main lab is. She breaks open the door and sees the “FETUS” for the first time. It is the most beautifully intricate thing she has ever seen yet it is terrifying nonetheless. She takes the “FETUS” out of its cradle and to her surprise, it triggers an alarm in the building. She hides the “FETUS” under her wings and runs off to the elevator. But the elevators are closed. She sees a staircase and takes it to the roof of the building. She runs off to the rooftop of the next building and then the other. She keeps running on the roofs and at one point finds no other buildings that she can run off to. She decides to jump off the building towards the street down. One of the fellow rebels who was hovering around on an air bike tracking her the whole time reaches her as soon as she touches the ground. She gets on the bike and they flee the scene.
