Terra -glomerate.

A vertical fairgorund for symphony community, 2021 @ SCI-Arc

Instructor: Damjan Jovanovic

In considering the wild as an image-concept, the studio will apply this thinking to the production of a music center situated in Exposition Park, Los Angeles. Complexity, blurriness, and liveness of mountains are embodied within this scale of space, that we call “nature”. Terra-glomerate is a Hybridized Vertical Fairground as a redefined narrative that makes the boundary of humans and other creatures slightly unclear, emerging human habitations, acoustic forms, apertures of terraces, and intermediate spaces, where new forms of music performance and learning are possible to happen.

• Iterated massing design using Rhino w/ Grasshopper

• Produced final design model and drawings with Revit

• Prepared presentation materials

The design of a significant remodel and addition to the existing structure navigates the restrictive hildside regulation, while embodying the client’s desire to celebrate its unique natural conditions. The proposed redesign of the site conceives a set of cascading volumes with circulations that echo the steep natural grade, creating jo urney around the courtyard and down to the main living space.

Contribution:

• Led Pre design research and schematic design

• Site models and site analysis

• General concepts, master plan design brainstorm, and modeling

• Prepared presentation materials

• Met the client (Taipei government)

Taipei Railway Workshop (TRW) is about to transform into a national museum, but the tremendous scale difference between humans and machines is a disconnection. Thus, the new and diverse “Machines” will be added into the existing TRW mechanism to preserve the dynamic motion system and its labor culture, which reforms an ecosystem-like totality.
