DESIGN VERSION 1 UNGROUND FLOOR PLAN
FEEDBACK
- Introduce the grid shell into the design - Maybe better if we can keep the whole architecture consistent, for example to keep the suites into the circular form as well - Get rid of the bridge as it is not consistent with the whole architecture - Could be further developed by considering the landscape into the design - The suites were looking to the winery which the privacy cannot be guaranteed, therfore looking for another location such as the other side of the lake
Several suites locations was explorated to test whether it is suitable for the whole winery. The advantages and disadvantages were listed for each option, then we decided to located the suites above the lake which will keep the consistency but also having the privacy looking the opposite direction of the winery.
- Lack of privacy - View blocked by winery - Form : not consistent with winery design - Noise (close to commercial area ) - Area of suites is relatively smaller compare to other scheme - Form : not consistent with winery design - Not accessible from winery

Final suites location
IMPROVEMENT - GRIDSHELL DESIGN
OPTION 1
GRIDSHELL FOR WINERY AND SUITES
![](https://assets.isu.pub/document-structure/201109121927-381e90f82ae7db80f7aeca0b6779a405/v1/db80b28e3ed926e18901ae447aae8530.jpg?width=720&quality=85%2C50)

The form is inspired of the precedent Morongo Casino & Resort. The grid shell start from the middle of the outdoor area and ends at the roof edges. The shells are also design above the suites to keep the consistency of the whole structure.
OPTION 2
GRIDSHELL FOR WINERY AND SUITES
OPTION 3
TENSILE SHELL FOR WINERY AND SUITES

The form is inspired of the precedent Morongo Casino & Resort and having the connected part which close to the ground connection.

In this design, the shelled is coving most of the open space and also the suites. the opening of winery gridshell give the area to locate the stage.
OPTION 5
GRID SHELL FOR WINERY AND TENSILE
![](https://assets.isu.pub/document-structure/201109121927-381e90f82ae7db80f7aeca0b6779a405/v1/2ed292a2beb9257c9e1765bac93d9ce8.jpg?width=720&quality=85%2C50)

In this case the grid shell for the suites are covering the building separately.
SHELL FOR SUITES

The form is inspired from the study of catenary in week 2. The anchor points are located at each rood edge of buildings which shows the contrast with the regular buildings.

Copyright 2015 by Didier Boy de la Tour. The precedent study of grid shell was mainly looked at the shells touches the buildings. After we received the feedbacks from the grid shell design, we mainly focus on the Cabot Circus which having the free form shell floating above different buildings and forms the contrast.
