GRAND CENTRAL MARKET
CLASS: ARCH 10B INSTRUCTOR: COLEMAN GRIFFITH YEAR: SPRING 2010
GRAND CENTRAL MARKET Objective: To establish a relationship between the orchestra and the community using architecture. External Reference: Single out an acoustic musical instrument limited from the orchestra. Investigate the instrument performs through form, material and components. Process: Analyze an instrument and understand how produces sound. Research how its sound is affected by its form, material and components. Site Plan: Grand Central Market is located in downtown Los Angeles, California between Hill and Broadway. Its one of few farmers markets in downtown Los Angeles and operates between 7am and 5pm.

Compression
Trumpet
The result of the subjection of a material to compressive stress, resulting in reduction of volume.
Reverberation A reverberation, or reverb, is created when a sound is produced in an enclosed space causing a large number of echoes to build up and then slowly decay as the sound is absorbed by the walls and air.
Elongation Something that elongates; an extansion
Amplification The act or result of amplifying, enlarging, or extending.
BODIES & SKINS/CURVES & SURFACE
CLASS:ARCH 12B INSTRUCTOR: NEIEL NORHEIM PROJECT: BODIES & SKINS/CURVES & SURFACE
BODIES & SKINS/CURVES AND SURFACE Description A curve developed with 7 equally distributed control points. The control points are aligned with the Curve in order to mold into different form. First, we manipulate the curve in 2D and forming the curves into 3D. The Curve is copied and ordinated. Both curves are then used to create a surface. The surfaces are duplicated to form to make a 3D form.
Objective: An understanding of NURB software though the use of CURVES. A basic command of manipulating curves with control points. Deriving from a noncomplex shape we develop a complex form with characteristic. Task comprise of design using Rhino using several commands that encompass rebuilding, lofting, offset and serial sections.

SEQUENTIAL SPACES
CLASS:ARCH 10B INSTRUCTOR: COLEMAN GRIFFITH SEMESTER: FALL 10B 2010
SEQUENTIAL SPACES Description: Spatial sequence develops the understanding of order in spaces through the use of circulation, interlocking and adjacent spaces.
Objective: Find a residence that houses private and public spaces to develop a physical model of sequential organization. It must embody interlocking spaces and a circulation. Derive a circulation diagram and spatial diagram around private spaces to develop a sequence of order. Circulation will release each interlocking space.
