Climate Museum Launch | SP2015 | Tate + Gerdts Location: Manhattan, NYC | In Collaboration with Sarah Hadianti
View from Underground Galleries
In triggering new frameworks for transforming cities into resilient urban environments, two main strategies are implemented in response to the catastrophic and wasteful issues of water: an underground structure as a flood prevention system and an aboveground architecture as a rainwater harvesting system. The museum exhibitions then highlight these climate-dependent elements through a series of openings and entry points for visitors to engage and witness.

The design concept begins with recording the sound and vibration in and out of the train station. From observing the vibration waves, spots with larger vibration (vehicle activities) tend to swallow the smaller ones (human activities). To separate these two activities, a protective membrane is created with these define spaces ( that hold human activities) weaved onto it. 8

Visitors experience a scaled difference of flooded zones while walking down the riverbed (walkway). The slanted string wall builds a psychological space in experiencing the vastness of a flooded area. Visitors can find information of extreme climate events on the screens attached to the columns while they can also share inputs, stories, and other information on climate change on pieces of paper to tie onto the strings.

The project site is located on a slope. The ground exfoliates as it descend and form shells around the programs. While a path penetrates a series of circulation and nodes, the then exposed ground now becomes interior space and the underside now becomes the exterior. Residual space becomes public space.

It is a center for dialogue and exchange of knowledge and a gateway for people to acknowledge the pursuit of peace. The perimeter of the lake takes one onto a journey of acknowledgement.

Boston West End is a place overshadowed by an inglorious urban gentrification in the 1950s when luxury housing replace an historical part of town. The concept of this project is to mend the value of community back into this neighborhood through the shifting of scales and public space. 12

An avenue is open up in the center of the site to bridge North Station and the hospital. 4-storied-high to 8-storied high row houses resembling the neighboring Beacon Hill sit along the avenue while each apartment group embraces a shared courtyard for its resdients. Common space with large windows in each unit is facing the avenue. Each unit is given a greenhouse in the back facing the courtyard, thus creating a transitional experience for residents to move from private to shared leisure space. 13
