| Ferriss in LA
Mega Ferriss in LA Partner: Deepak Agrawal
Hugh Ferriss's moody, mysterious dream towers were always strangely more appropriate to the film noir landscape of Los Angeles than they were ever at home in the infinite grid of New York. This thesis starts with a collection of Ferriss-inspired forms and silhouettes and proceeds to mine their as-yet unrealized potentials through various transformations -- copy, scale, rotate, slice -- before setting them down in LA. It observes two issues shaping the development of metropolis. The increasingly crowded urban living environment with issues of access and justice has become difficult to ignore. Meanwhile, the power of FANG company has become considerably impactful to all aspects of urban living. This thesis addresses these concerns by combining hyperdensity with mega-scaled outdoor areas and multiplying the “grounds” we can occupy and share. The results become a series of architectural surprises: buildings nested within buildings rather than straight interiors divided from exteriors, mute exteriors without reference to the usual “human scale” of windows, doors, and balconies, and strange, playful relationships to the ground plane and the surrounding city. In this case, downtown LA becomes the ground to feature in the group of towers. Density is dramatically increased, the horizontal orientation of the existing context is challenged, and green spaces, plazas, and other areas for public life are multiplied above and below the single datum of the city’s existing pedestrian surface.

The Metropolis of Tomorrow Type: Headerquater Extension Instructor:Tom Wiscombe Partner: Deepak Agwaral The project started with the study of Hugh Ferriss’s drawings from his book ‘The Metropolis of Tomorrow’. Sketches from his book focus on his imagination of an ideal city of the future with skyscrapers placed well apart from each other, broad avenues, and a coherent organization of building typologies. The project aims to look at the interiors more than the exteriors. The interiors of the Mega Building are designed as a city within a city. The existing buildings in NYC are scaled up 5 times larger and capsuled with Hugh Ferris tower which creates a weird juxtaposition between two and also the interior and exterior. This proposal seeks to imagine this city of mega buildings as a toy where the building parts click and lock to assemble or disassemble. The “METROPOLIS OF TOMORROW V2 OBM Expansion” adopted the model kit to the site, to design an office complex creating a striking new silhouette in the city. The building components are complete in themselves but also parts jammed into the main body, and the entire building docked into the site. The play of SCALE, MOVE, COPY and ROTATE allow to add complex interior spaces in the Hugh Ferriss structure. It considers Hugh Ferriss’s mega building as a shell, and the interior is treated with inner liners to add a dual effect and a dynamic circulation in the office. They extract the exterior into the interior rather than a conventional open-floor plan. Unlike a conventionally designed layout, the project engages the functions with the geometry and creates an innovative design.

| Form of Knowledge
Library of Co-existing Forms of Knowledge Type: Library Instructor: Elena Manferdini Partner: Kaiying Lin Contemporary libraries, however, are complex structures that have defied cultural expectations and evolved to integrate an expanding array of media collections and spaces for civic and democratic exchange. But this shift in rhetoric is also manifested in a shift in architecture and its attendant aesthetics. The idea, of the library as a ‘living room in the city’, has continually gained traction since the watershed moment of OMA’s Seattle Public Library. A central proposition of this studio is that strong architectural projects, at the scale of the city, are not only of interest to other architects but are a necessary and currently missing catalyst for a new urban vitality. Our proposal tries to refine the Central Library of Atlanta into a co-existing information container where encourage not only economy exchange but also emphasis unique experience of acquiring knowledge. As the 4.0 world focuses more on the virtuality and immersive experience, new technology and new materials become the representation of architectural language.

- Material Strategy The proposal tries to express the transparency of knowledge and collaboration through twofold. Firstly, the stunning exterior contrasts with the surrounding environment, forming new monumentality through primitive geometry. At the same time, Lightweight perforated aluminum panels and iridescent glass show the lightness and transparency of the building.

- Virtual Reality RoomThe room provides free access to internet resources and immersive experience 24/7. The large display engine seats in the middle of the room, providing visual contents to the visitors. The aluminum facade panels are projected with virtual screens, showing the newest social events, movies and activities.

- Exhibition Area The lighting effect is emphasized through exhibition area; the geodesic form space with modular marble triangular panels plays an exuberant effect with the chromatic glass facade.

The primary part of the work is an animated drawing set in form of a multi segment video. The aim of the seminar is to re-think how we can envision and communicate design in innovative ways which exceed the design object itself.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS Summer High the July high is around 89 degrees Winter Low the January low is 32 Sperling’s Comfort Index for Atlanta is a 66 out of 100 A higher score indicates a more comfortable year-round climate. The US average for the comfort index is 54. Our index is based on the total number of days annually within the comfort range of 70-80 degrees, and we also applied a penalty for days of excessive humidity.

The site is a city block on the edge of Falkner Square, alongside Liverpool Womens’Hospital. It is recently announced that the Royal College of Physicians is to commission a center of excellence in Liverpool to serve the north of England. This will be their first newbuild since Lasduns’ tour-de-force, and they intend to build on the success of their recent past. In addition to the learned space, exhibition space is dominant as a reflection of the need to embrace new thinking and science in professional practice. From the outset, the intention was to encourage the general public to visit their premises and engage them through this exhibition rather than hideaway behind the closed doors of an elitist establishment. Hence, it would be essential to make the connection of traditions and modernity as well as consideration for medical learning output in the scheme.
