The proposal is parasytic, with floorplans planted in the neighbouring skyscrapers to further emphasise the importance of a designated childcare space for working parents

In addition to the spiraling staircase and lifts, an internal floor-to-floor slide network is integrated into the building as a playful alternative for parents, staff, occupants or supervised children to use. The render demonstrates the humor and playful nature of the proposal through the diverse demographic of slide preferring occupants.

VIET MARKET & NOODLE BAR

Masters Project Year II

SITE STUDIES: AXONOMETRICS

Emphasizing the shared reception space between the market and restaurant - showing how colour is used to distinctify regions instead of walls and seperations. Moving parts like the front elevation, market ladder and dumbwaitors show that the space transforms and can exist in various contexts - one for a busy lively market, another for a sensory cultural dining experience - all while maintaining the privacy and quiet of a private living space upstairs.

Plans

Perspectives show the noodle bar in use as it interacts with the architecture through the moving dumbwaiter that takes the food upstairs quickly to maintain its hot temperature.

SHORT SECTION: NIGHT VIEW

This sectional perspective at a night view’s render displays how the building functions in the evening in its duplicitous nature of being an ambient and lively noodle bar and a quieter residential space above. The section captures different user experiences with the building including double height spaces and more private stair access routes.
