MULTI PARKING
HOW CAN WE CREATE A NEW URBAN EVENT SPACE ON A 2X5 PARKING LOT?
2X5
TODAY This narrow 2x5 area is standarized for the use of the car. This allienation makes the space seem not very useful for the human scale. Traditionally it does not encourage human activity.

NEW PARKING LOT
we double the surface by adding a new one on top of the existing one. the new space is situated 5 metres over the street so the user experiences the city from a privileged position
new skin > now the parking lot has four facades, four new multi-layered faces for the city related to human scale that can be used in many different ways
the concept has changed for the use of an urban neglected space as a new public space where anything can happen with an appropriate schedule
