This project is concerned with developing a spatial relationship between living, learning, and leisure facilities within a single urban context. The categorizing of programmatic function was sectioned into two primary nodes that (A) catered to the experience of a Parsons student’s learning experience, and (B) catered to a Parsons student’s living experience; while affording the opportunity for public spaces, between each node, at integral moments of each tower.

[I N I T I A L ] PROPOSED MASTERPLAN
The initial intent of Essex Crossing was to develop a new master plan that will be anchored by the historical landmark of the Essex Street Market, but through the initial proposed masterplan, most of the activities are proposed along the southern sector of Delancey, negelecting the heart of the neighborhood, the Essex Street Market. As a way to refocus the design back to the Esssex Market, we shifted the program of the Warhol Musuem to site 7, the theater to site 1, the development of a residential tower with commercial base for site 2 and renovation of the Essex Street Market for site 9.

As a way to successfully re-program the arteries of Essex and Delancey, traffic must be slowed down for the intersecting arteries of Delancey St. and Essex St. This creates more opportunity for pedestrian traffic between sites, 1, 2, 7, and 9. The only opportunity to condense traffic throughout the four corners was through the formation of a boulevard along Essex Street.

The Small Wild Goose Pagoda is located in the southern suburb of Xian. It is about 2 kilometers to the south of the City Wall, covering an area of 16.3 hectares (40.4 acres). It mainly consists of the Xian Museum, the ancient Jianfu Temple built in the year 684 A.D during the Tang Dynasty (618-907), and the Small Wild Goose Pagoda (S.W.G.P.).

The S.W.G.P. Research Facility is organized through the separation of Public vs. Private or Front stage vs. Back stage. Where front stage is indicative through public interaction. It is the area that it is only experienced through an “audience’s” perspective (i.e. the circulation ramp and the outer lab), whereas back stage is indicative only through private interaction. It is the area that cannot be viewed by the public but serves as an industrial performance (the inner lab).

As a part of Design, the owner wanted to create a lobby space that would steer away from essence of a typical psychiatric hospital but provide an inviting atmosphere that soothes the customer before engaging into their transitioning process. As a strategy for design I centered the atmospheric quality of the room on the design of the reception desk. I wanted the reception desk to be a type of universal design, allowing it to be accessible to both A.D.A. customers and non-handicap customers. As a method to perform this action, I created a front faรงade that provides a smooth interaction between receptionist and customer; through the exaggerated counter, for non-handicap customers, and the handicap cut out, for A.D.A. customers. Due to the minimal lighting within the space, I added under-lighting at the cutout. This design will add additional lighting in the space as well as notify A.D.A. customers of access.

“Drawing is visceral to all designers. It is a manifestation, a connection of all between the hand heart and the mind. Through drawing you can dream the impossible and evolve the actual. Its a visual language, something we all understand.” - Professor Rob Phillips Creative Director School of Design & Technlogy London College of Fashion
