What can Motley become? The University’s incredible research and initiatives are largely disconnected from neighboring areas. The nascent innovation district at Towerside to the east struggles to connect with that area, separated by a “placeless” middle ground.

Public realm pays dividends.

vs.

Driving profits with generic ground floor retail can lead to a characterless district with low tenant demand and retail exposure. Curating the ground level program mix to become a destination for public engagement and a distinctive civic attraction boosts demand for all leaseholders—a highly desirable place to live, work, and visit.

The Tea Ceremony takes a central place in Japanese culture, followed by strong aesthetic characteristics. We chose to rely on traditional proportions and the basic two tatami layout as the base for the inner space of our tearoom. The linear layering of the tearoom is inspired by the textures and shapes of the tea bowl, with its expression of the beauty and imperfection of nature.

The tearoom is an envelope of the teaceremony, a space which relates to its surrounding yet at the same time separates and allows the quietness and tranquillity required for the interior activity. Usually the traditional tearoom offers limited openings to the outside â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in our interpretation the thickness of the wall becomes the barrier between the tea ceremony taking place inside and the surrounding nature, while the view is controlled by the bending angle of each layer and their densities.

Guggenheim Helsinki design team: Kengo Kuma, Ko Nakamura, Andrea Trajkovska, Cristina Hurtado Campaña, Jun Shimada size: 12.000 m2 location: Helsinki, Finland year: 2014 materials: wood, steel, glass my role: • Team coordinator • Design of the formal concept • Design of the plans • Facade, exterior and landscape design • Presentation design The design of the museum is based on openness and accessibility. The building is imagined as a forum for meeting and enjoying art, a place that has an organic relationship with the city and stands out not only for its visual qualities but also for its inviting nature and inclusiveness. The connection with the cityscape is achieved on 2 levels – scale and programmatic level. The building respects the elevation height of the immediate surroundings and the highest point is set at +26.24m, the same as Hotel Palace’s frontline. Other parts are lower, allowing views from Tohtitornin Vuori Park to go beyond the museum building. On a programmatic level, the roof top of the museum is imagined as an extension of the Tohtitornin Vuori Park, and the space under the roof a connection to the urban fabric.

roof plaza

The museum program is developed in 2 main levels â&#x20AC;&#x201C; ground and gallery floor. The ground floor is imagined as sequence of 3 plazas surrounded by the supporting museum functions. First is the Entrance Lobby, surrounded by the Visitor Services, Museum Shop and CafĂŠ. The main circulations are followed by the Multipurpose Space, and the series finishes at the Foyer in front of the Performance/ Conference Hall, Classroom, Restaurant and the meeting rooms of the administrative offices. The exhibition space is imagined as a sequence of 8 galleries with different sizes and heights. They can function as one continued exhibition space, or be subdivided for several exhibitions. The galleries are layered between the two public parts, the rooftop and the ground plazas.

Multifunctional Plaza

Roof Plaza

The public space in this project is divided between 2 layers: ground and rooftop. The surroundings of the building are designed as 3 consecutive plaza spaces â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Entrance Plaza in front of the museum, Multifunctional Plaza facing the harbour and framed by the museum, and Roof Plaza negotiating the space between the ground, roof and harbour. These spaces will be utilized during the warm season, and are mirrored in the interior of the lobby, multifunctional space and foyer, which in turn will serve as winter public space. The roof can be accessed from 3 points: Tohtitornin Vuori Park, Roof Plaza and the museum interior. It will serve as a public space for leisure, outdoor activities and enjoying the views over Helsinki.

Prototyping Architecture (studio design project) design team: Adriana Zurera, Ton Deulling size: different scales location: Tokyo, Japan year: 2010/11 my role: • Design • Physical models and prototypes • Generative design in Rhino Grasshopper and Rhino Script • Presentation diagrams, drawings, images Prototyping Architecture was a design studio structured in 3 workshops held at The University of Tokyo by Prof. Yusuke Obuchi. In a period of one semester we researched the concept of tensegrity model developed by Kenneth Snelson and Buckminster Fuller and used computational techniques to design new models and test their work with physical models. Workshop 1 goal - design of non-linear tensegrity canopy based on research of material properties. Workshop 2 goal - design of non-linear tensegrity canopy based on research of patterns. Workshop 3 goal - implementing the previous knowledge in designing a new ceiling for Tokyo Station.

Workshop 1: Non-linear tensegrity canopy - material research material: flexible PVC sheet and toothpicks

Workshop 2: Non-linear tensegrity canopy - pattern research / material: flexible PVC sheet and toothpicks

Workshop 3: Tokyo Station ceiling design material: wood/plastic
