Continuous City Block

By exploring the surroundings of Turtle Bay area, the typology of the blocks and neighboring areas are inspiring me to use the language of the New York City itself, to explain the building I designed here.

Surrounded by the busy midtown Manhattan, and next to the United Nation building. The building is a city by itself. Providing people with a calming place for recovering. Combining the rehab programs with the residents to challenge the traditional boundary between a healthcare facility like rehabilitation center and the city.

Project type | Academic Studio | ARCH 6010 Pr. Luis Pancorbo Year | 2021 Fall

Program | Hot Bath, Recovery center

Location | Bath County, Virginia

Surrounded by Blue Ridge Mountains, warm springs used to be one of favorite bath for President Thomas Jefferson, famoused for its curing and relaxing physical therapy due to the natural elements in the spring. With trails and natural reservations around it, it is a place where tourists will pass by and stop on it way for relaxation and recreation.

This is project is nspired by the flowing shape of the river in the nature. It experiment with timber’s shape to interact with human’s spaces and the location of the pools in between. Flowing Height was a place welcoming people from those who are recovering from diseases, travelers of the trails around, to any people who would like to be cured by the nature in the beautiful blue ridge mountains.

The shape of the building lead a sequence for visitor to experiement this place. From the beginning, visitors are able to learn some historical background of local and the historical bath on site from the exhibition lobby before they really get into the space.

While experiencing this place chronologically, visitors can also enjoy the space vertically through the changes of the altitude. From ponds being digged into the gound, to the ponds that hanging up on the top end of the building to enjoy the same feelings similar to mountain climbing.

The Timber materials are being used to represent how the woods are shaping the the mountain ranges, which is the most common topology in this site.

The timber inserted with window to give a best view for the the tilting rythmn of the wood in different areas of the building. The mounted timber transit from lower down to the ground to the higher up to the water, letting different space volume define the functions of the builiding. The density of the timber creates the privacy space for different parts of the building in needs.

Project type | Academic Studio | SARC 6210 Pr. Katie Stranix Year | 2021 Fall Program | Observation Hill, Charllotesville

A program that is designed to cooperate with both architecture design and landscape design. A site in the mountainous landscape was selected to place the architecture.

The landscape is being reformed and led by the water flow that leads visitors to go through both pond, glasshouse, and the bird observation tower. While experiencing the hierarchical differences, people can also explore different micro-climate shaped by the transformed landscape features.

Architecture shapes, dome, floor plates, and shelve shapes are responding to the landscape of the site. Not only to fit into the environment, but also to highlight the natural-inviting characteristic of this project.

Digital computation

Grasshopper Bison plugin is being used here to stimulate basic features of the geography of the site. Forecasting the water flow of the place, while giving the site a better designing strategies.

Sections below shows the hierachy of the landscape, explaining the hierachy of different portions of the projects, while showing the circulations and the activities inside of the project.
