THE RETROUVAILLE [HOUSING FOR SILVER GENERATION]

MICRO-COMMUNITIES OF ELDERLY RESIDENCES, CONNECTED WITH STAGGERED VOIDS FOR VISUAL CONNECTIVITY AND FAMILIARITY. PAIRED UNITS ON EACH LEVEL SHARE A COMMUNAL GARDEN TO FOSTER SOCIAL INTERACTION. IN EACH MICRO COMMUNITY, A CENTRAL GATHERING SPACE IS CATERED FOR THE ELDERLY TO CONGREGATE.

A LIVELY BUILDING VOID WHERE RESIDENCES ARE CONNECTED FROM FLOOR TO FLOOR, AND ARE ENTICED TO SEEK OUT THEIR NEIGHBORS AND FRIENDS THROUGH VISUAL CONNECTIVITY.

Interstices

[SPACE, AGGREGATION, STRUCTURE]

BASED ON THE MOVIE SANDCASTLE, EMOTIVE SECTIONS ARE DRAWN TO CAPTURE THE MAIN CHARACTER’S CURIOSITY ABOUT HIS ESTRANGED FATHER, AND HIS AFOREMENTIONED FATHER WILFULLY CHOOSING EXILE OVER HIS FAMILY. THE QUALITIES OF PAUSE AND MOVEMENT WHILE NAVIGATING THROUGH THE EMOTIVE SPACES AND LITTLE INDIA ARE EXTRACTED TO DRIVE THE APARTMENT ANALOGUE AND AGGREGATION.

INTERSTICES SERVE AS AN EXTENSION TO THE CONTEXT OF LITTLE INDIA. CHOREOGRAPHED SERIES OF IN-BETWEEN SPACES OF DIFFERING SCALES AND AMBIENCE THAT CREATES A SENSE OF INTRIGUE FOR ONE TO SEEK OUT THE TEASED UPCOMING SPACES. THE UNIQUE PHENOMENOLOGY OF LITTLE INDIA IS CAREFULLY TAILORED AND RECREATED MORPHOLOGICALLY AND EXPERIENTIALLY THROUGHOUT THE DWELLING.

MIDORI GALLERY [ARCHI CONSTRUCTION & TECTONICS]

THE PROPOSED PUBLIC GALLERY AIMS TO SERVE AS AN EXTENSION TO THE ADJACENT PARK, THROUGH THE CREATION OF A CONTINUOUS JOURNEY WHICH CURATES A SEQUENTIAL EXPERIENCE FOR THE EXHIBITS. THIS ALLOWS THE ARCHITECTURE TO PLAY A ROLE IN THE STORYTELLING AND THE FLOWING CUBES INTERCONNECT THE GALLERY SPACES FROM BOTTOM TO THE TOP.

THE STEEL PROPOSAL HIGHLIGHTS THE LIGHT TENSILE QUALITY OF STEEL STRUCTURES, WITH DIAGONAL STEEL STRUTS TO SUPPORT THE CANTILEVERED VOLUMES. THE CANTILEVERS ARE THEN FURTHER SUPPORTED BY A LARGE CENTRAL CORE OF FOUR MEGA COLUMNS BRACED BY EACH OTHER.

MASSING DEVELOPMENT // A SEQUENTIAL GALLERY EXPERIENCE

STEEL STRUCTURE // LIGHT TENSILE QUALITIES OF SUSPENDED STRUTS

REINFORCED CONCRETE // ELEGANCE AND COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF ARCHS
