Design Studio, SCI-Arc Graduate Studies 2GAX Fall Semester, Year 1, 2015 Group (3) Academic project Claudia Wainer, Hyosean Park, Nithya Subramaniam Design Guides// Florencia Pita // florencia@pita-bloom.com Keywords// striations linear pixelation pixel blending Proposed Site// Paris Scale// Media Archive Project Brief // Paris is structured in a clear organizational and formal delineation, and at certain moments can appear visually monochromatic and formally repetitive. This project explores novel methods of addressing context as well as the integration of found forms (like the candy jar profile) to design conditions such as the architectural corner, geometry and color. The building unites and at the same time, breaks away with the adjacent buildings, creating a new icon to the surrounding context that maintains a subtle familiarity to its neighbors. Frayed edges produce the effect of transparency while graphic and tectonic seams provide a visual continuity from the interior to the exterior. By doing so it creates a dialogue with the adjacent buildings and the street. These striations that are projected from the surrounding context also help negotiate the vertical nature of the design and maintains a symbiotic nature between them.

// Modeled and Rendered in Maya Mental Ray

// Using a similar process of manipulation, photographs of the surrounding context and color are used to create texture. It is used to further exaggerate the striations running through the mass and is enhanced by the deformation of these visual cues. Textures come from the process of image manipulation and pixel sampling. Grain and verticality are produced through the stretching of pixel and at times these pixels are maintained as clear graphic. The textures expose foreign and contextual data, and the combination provides a pattern the is subtle and stands out from the context. The pattern acquires a unique materiality that does not belong to traditional materials such as stone and glass, but exists as a graphic material mixer.

// The figure is derived from the combination of curvilinear profiles of a jar with the architectural features that are extrapolated from the context. Both techniques provide a loose connection with each other and therefore is perceived as being unrelated and yet integrated into local paradigms. // Modeled and Rendered in Maya Mental Ray

Advanced Tectonics, SCI-Arc- Graduate Studies 2GAX Fall Semester, Year 1, 2015 Group Academic project Claudia Wainer, Aman Sheth, Zeynep Cinar, Nithya Subramaniam Design Guides// Maxi Spina//maxispina@gmail.com Keywords// moire effect interactive facade double layered facade Scale// Chunk Model Project Brief // After running a critical analysis on Galleria Center City by UN Studio, we designed a chuck model using all the systems it included. Starting from materials like Concrete, Alluminium sections, Led lamps and Steel sections to creating a moire effect on the facade and creating a similar canopy along the curved end, this chunk mondel was designed. The primary mode of design and representation is the cut away axonometric drawing and sectional model and its analogue material incarnation. By reformulating its tectonic conjectures to adapt to a slightly altered design scenario, the design was carried forward.

Design Studio, SCI-Arc Graduate Studies 2GBX Fall Semester, Year 1, 2016 Group (2) Academic project Meenakshi Dravid, Nithya Subramaniam Design Guides// Elena Manfredini, AT- Shawn Rasekh // manferdini@ateliermanferdini.com Keywords// shift, distort, cut transparency louvers reflections Proposed Site// Los Angeles Scale// Court House (24 Court rooms) Project Brief // The courthouse has great significance as a public building, often shrouded in opaque monumental forms, that signify dominance. Our version of the courthouse intends to take away the opacity while retaining the monumental splendour. Law has always had a broad scope of understanding and prescribes to different sensibilities of different people. Architecture and architectural forms however consistently have some connotations that adhere to understanding of spaces and programs. Architecture through its form and shape can create various expected or unexpected moments, that are orchestrated, in this case with the employ of materials, tectonics and program. For justice to exist, as an architectural element of democratic society, the form could very well be the exaggeration of growth, solidity and progress. The city skyline, often dominated by tall solid figures of commercial milestones, the justice seems to be small stubby remnant of the Greek era, with not much to offer to the 21st century idea of armchair justice with trails that face the scrutiny of media.

//Massing on site. Rendered in Key Shot. Simple massing developed using shifts, distrotions and cuts, terms likely to be used in the judiciary system as well.

// With our play in material transparency we are trying to strip away the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;blackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; cloak of mystery that usually tends to be associated with the aesthetics of a courthouse.

// Primitive shapes develop into buildings taking cues from verbs. Shift, distort, cut, the verbs that one can associate with justice and its likes, have found their way into the massing.

// Our version of the courthouse tells its story, quite frankly, with colors, opacity, reflections, often distorted giving a fair idea of where the action takes place, while hiding the actual proceedings.

// The program is arranged such that it keeps considerable distance from the envelope, doing this enables the segregation of the skin and their program pronounced, helping in understanding the machinations of the courthouse. Shifting atriums allow visual connectivity, in an otherwise opaque program.

Library + References

The courthouse has rarely considered for the welfare of the civil officials working within. By creating open floor offices that are segregated from any other non personnel interference, helps the officials to have a better working environment. The courthouse, now, is a building for the people beyond it and the ones within.

Private libraries for judges and law clerks are located in the tallest building, without public access. It is served by a private elevator.

Judgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Suite Ancillary programs are re-oriented at the second level for multi-defendants court. These include judgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chambers, offices, holding cells, attorney offices amongst others.

Multi-defendent Courtroom Special proceeding courtroom housing multi-defendant trials have larger areas for public to watch proceedings. The public entries are segregated from law personnel entry.

En Banc Courtroom Courtrooms do not follow the typical plan at the multi-defendant courtroom level. Smaller En Banc courtrooms populate the floor in case of these levels.

Public Lobby Public lobbies are stacked on top of each other, and have limited access to programs within. To ensure that the space and access is perceived larger than given, the walls of courtrooms are mirrored and the offices have a high gloss finish.

Multiple Entries Different entries are provided for all kinds of program users. Judges and defendants enter directly through their designated parking, whereas the jury enters through a separate entrance from the street level.

// The building is framed within the site with the help of its context has brought about decisions of material finish, accesses, and even program orientation. The built form acts as an object and a public building. Our design process entailed controlling and balancing its object like features with actual mandatory requirements. This can be seen through the program planning, the choice of material finishes, the placement of tectonic elements.

Segregated Circulation

The public circulation is restricted to a singular tower. The access is limited to only a certain courts, that allows for audience during proceedings.

// The entries for the courthouse are separate for each user group, as required by the program, whereas the material finished for the same are derived through the logic of shadows that fall on the site. // Despite the apparent transparency, the secure programs stay within the core, giving just glimpses of what usually stays hidden. With the public at the periphery, the building screens itself with the people it serves. The courthouse interacts with the city, through its tectonic systems, indicating its hours of work. 16

The rules that these were based off were the idea of all the entries facing the Red Square, each building was designed such that they would be inclear sight of eachother, public and private programs are housed separately and the public ones encase the courtyard. Maintaining these qualities was essential, therefore we used these elements and wualities to cater to the needs of our project. Using the roof profiles from the seven sisters we generated a new roof- lining the old to the new. The grid adopted pays homage to the buildings htat were never realized. Boulevard acts as a spine of the bank, functioning as major circulation. Roof continues to change as you proceed down the boulevard. The programs are distributed to create an experience for every user of the building.

// The view below shows the rise and fall of the roof and how it peels off the ground appearing one with its surroundings. The striations seen are public spaces for people to meet. They continue on the roof to let in light and forn winter gardens within the building.

//The three peaks seen in the roof structure immitate the 3 buildings that were not realized during stalins reign. The primary ribs of the roof and the secondary structure between it running in two directions work together to create a framework and an overall finned structure below the roof.

// Architecture helps cope with formal irregularity in the site boundary. The grid lines are used as a guideline for the roof structure and the columns for the building. The rise and fall of the concrete roof structure is used to generate a senario similar to the one seen around the red square buildings.

// The elevation view of the chunk model shows the split levels and its relations with the roof profiles. The view below shows the relations of the hanging slab to the roof and how its open plan nature canbe occupied by users.

// This section above through the cross section shows the glass wall detail that lines the boulevard on either side.

// The material layering within the building is specifically seen in the roof and the slab elements. This open section is cut trhough the boulevard. It helps reveal the splitting slabs, hanging slabs from the roof, ramps and circulation and the curved walls used to divided spaces. The contoured roofs creates irregular peaks each from which the new or the old city can be viewed. It gives the same impression the seven sisters gives.

// This chunk model attempts to expose the kind of structure that is designed to hold up the roof and the hanging slabs from the roof within the building. 3D printed in parts in an attempt to expose this form. The Chunk is also picked to show maximum details adopted by the building to meet the conceptual and structural standards for this form.

// The program is arranged such that it keeps all its view into the boulevard or towards the outside at all times. Doing this enables the segregation of the skin and their program pronounced, helping in understanding the planning of a bank. Shifting ramps along the boulevard spine allows visual connectivity, in an otherwise opaque program.

By creating open floor offices that are segregated from any other non personnel interference, helps the officials working in a bank of this kind have a better working environment. The model pictures alongside show the main features in the chunk model of the entire building.

DROP CEILING TIE BACKS

The truss system is designed as a bridge and the core is supported through braced frame and the slabs are hung from this and supported by the steel beams, columns and edge beams around the slabs. The flat slab structure is a simple post and beam one with least load subjected to it. Lastly, the building with the concrete core supports the slabs and has a primary and secondary steel structure which includes edge beams deep enough to counter the load it is subjected to. The MEP for the building is also designed in three parts. The details are designed keeping in mind the custom extruded glass and the effect needed to be achieved. The mullions, glass, structure in portions and mesh wall detail is customized for this building. The facade portion clad in stone tiles and the mesh between glass detail is cutomized to create the required effect and at the same time be structurally sound to hold itself up against all the support below.

The research looked into the functioning and the evolution of a vending machine and how products were delivered, stacked and stored in each of them. These objects exist within our urban landscape, some of which work better than the others in different conditions. The conditions within the research game allow for simple re implementation and randomization which helps create different scenarios and machines, each of which can be reimplemented and revitalized. The urban landscapes can be created using war game strategies and implemented rules, outcomes can be developed to challenge and improve environments to make them far more workable.The extent of how efficient, safe, sound, rich or poor a place is can be concluded through this process. By setting up permutations of how the urban landscape of a street can transform just by a process of repurposing and rearranging, qualities of those urban objects will be affected by a simple randomization of inputted information, the perception of the built environment can then be challenged and changed. Motive of the game is to strive for best solutions while you have the opportunity to mix and match your existing and additional urban objects that you introduce based on the character you have adopted. It keeps in mind that urban plans in general allow for different kinds of inhabitants including people (characters depending on the kind of zones that get created along these streets. The project reconsiders urban planning in architecture inside, outside, between and beyond all monotonous rectangular building blocks seen in most city skylines and offers an urban landscape littered with surrealistic architecture in jarring environments while activating the Z Axis providing efficiency to urban sociology by gamifying the experience to urban plan. 34

Civilians- The aim is to envision a streetscape in a neighborhood, seek a sense of abundance, avoid decay and coexist to survive. Supervisors / Policing- The aim to to maintain public safety and pedestrian expenditure like comfort, health of local businesses, transportation habits such as traffic signals and signages, and local real estate value. Defiants - (homeless, thieves) The aim is to create wrecked environements while sabotaging the civilians and supervisors while they create dark alley ways, vandalise, dezone, destroy and disrupt the existing environment.

The infinity quality seen within the all elements of the building whether it is thorugh its sections or in views from the outside, the endless and infinite quality intrigued us. We took up the ramp detail and re proposed it to meet and exagerate this infinity concept where the end of edges are never seen. Lastly the detail is deisgned with re prosoded materials like Ash wood and mild steel tube sections and sheets welded and screwed together.

Our experience of the city, private or public, is no longer primarily influenced by physical built form but by various media, digital information and communication technologies we interact with and through on a daily basis. The image or identity of a space is based on the interaction between space and its users. This thesis also aspires to continue the legacy of the avant-gardes and to carry on the optimistic approach and explore new architectural opportunities in the future of the digital networked world.

This is because they are working towards a common objective ie. CATCHING PREY. Each glow worm coordinates its light intensity with three other glow worms. In this manner they all end up glowing with the same intensity after running 4 iterations each . There fore it takes 6 glow worms to coordinate and finish a cyle. GlowWorms//Book Shelves

It maintains some of the elements of the first composition like the geometric pattern and the profiles seen on the back of the chair, the mirror and some iconic ornamentation from baroque furniture. The composition moves from top to bottom. In between, the brush stroke pattern and other filters in the print provide a different threshold. We took inspiration from Laura Owens and used the technique in her paint-ings of bold graphic scribbling to interrupt the composition in the middle

A club that is prestigious, but does not wish to advertise itself in ways that could bring unwanted attention. That being said, the facade of a building is an image. In turn, this image becomes the branding of its inhabitants, a representation of that organization’s mission and characteristics. What will this image tell the world about the Jonathan club? The Jonathan club has transcended many generations, its roots run deep, it is layered with moments of history, in stories as well as in architecture. This is part of the reason we did notwant to conceal the historic facade of the jonathan club, but instead add another layer of history to it.

Vision// The terrain is molded to provide privacy to the three villas. The exterior and the interior space is merged, blurring the distinct edge between them. While everything appears connected on site, the entrances to each house is independent by design. // Section

Water Villa

Physical Model

// The volume of the house is designed as two entities- one big one small and both are connected by a staircase enclosed in glass so you can see the rocks and water below the slab. The steps and slab are made in glass and visually connects nature and water with the rocks outside. This allows you to see through the entire volume.

// The villa is designed as two diatinct objects. The living spaces and the meeting space is designed as open spaces while the other holds a more neutral and private karaoke room and a room for the assistant.

Tree Villa // The vision of living within the trees is a concept kept in mind while designing the tree villa. The three volumes in the tree villa are designed keeping privace in mind and at the same time open and one with nature. This is seen in the bedrooms in this villa where they are closed towards the interior but open towards the exteirior.

// Section

Hill Villa // The design of this villa is based on the thousand Turtle Mountains which bear huge cracks with the vegetation growing within them. The Villa itself emulates thisquality through four volumes where each volume bears cracks in the form of windows where vegetation is seen growing. In this way the villa imitates qualitiesof the mountain itself. The entrance to the villa itself is hidden and appears as though it is sinking into the landscape.
