SEOUL STUDIO | SITUATION | The borough of Changsin, in Seoul, South Korea, is one of the oldest districts in the city. In the 1970’s garment factories began to take over after union activity in the original location, Pyeonghwa, caused the industry to disperse. This movement enveloped the neighborhood and created the manufacturing heart of Dongdaemun market, but with the rapid industrialization came the need for logistics systems and a disregard for the quality of living. The district’s street system is congested with heavy motorbike and small truck traffic that supplies the strata of factories. Due to the volume of traffic the district is experiencing a cap preventing further development, and it is not able to compete in the global market.
INTERVENTION | The proposal is a system of connecting the independent micro-factories to create a mega-factory that can compete with global mass-production facilities, while maintaining the specialization of the individual factory. Using a system of pneumatic pipes to fulfill the supply needs of the district may increase factory efficiency, reduce congestion, and catalyze industrial growth within the district. The physical separation of the supply network while maintaining its visual presence retains the productive character of the district and promotes a return of the resident’s social space.

FIELD MEASURE | Seoul, South Korea experienced a rapid period of growth following the end of the Korean War. The buildings constructed during this time had very little consideration of electricity, HVAC, and gas utilities. When the buildings needed to be retrofitted for these utilities there was no cost-effective way to conceal the systems within the finished walls. The solution was to attach them to the exterior of the building resulting in buildings wrapped with gas lines, ventilation systems, electrical, phone, and internet cables. Mapping these systems informs the viewer of the program of the district, and begins to visually demonstrate a hierarchy within the neighborhoods. This district, Bukcheon, is a primarily residential neighborhood and small commercial shops interlaced along the more heavily trafficked corridors. The density of utilities indicates this program, and should the building be removed the utilities define a more implicit space.

The district of Seochon is a similar mix of residential and commercial however, instead of the single-story density of Bukcheon, Seochon Village contains medium rise structures and multiple markets like Tongin Market. This mapping is of a small market near Gyeongbukgung Palace, and using the utility density as a reference, it demonstrates that this area contains a higher population density. Upon removal of the building masses the utility density begins to more explicitly form space around their building geists.

iti Util
Changsin, garment district, is a light industrial and residential district. In comparison to Seochon this district retains a similar density, but it has a different program. This program creates an inconsistent density per building. The more implicit the space created by isolated utilities the more likely that structure contains a factory. By isolating these utilities, one can nearly determine the program, and density of individual buildings, and floors within those buildings.

Changsin, Seoul, South Korea | 2017 |
SYSTEM MAPPING | The Changsin district is a light industrial (dark blue) garmet district mixed with high density residential (grey) providing the industry with a working population. Although the map indicates the zoning as a polar organization the reality is that within the blue structures the factories may only occupy half of the building and the other half residential or commercial. Mapping the district from above disguises the grade of the district, a steepness, even pictures fail to capture, exponentially increases as you travel away from the central artery of the district. Similaly, the map will not describe the mechanism of the industry throughout the district. In person the burough is in constant motion; motor bikes traveling in packs of 10 up and down the district as the traffic light at the gate of the district turns green, the machine gun sound of a million inescapeable sewing machines, and the steam and smells that bleach and irons exhaust. The map instead describes a thermodynamic law that the district is not excused from. The density of factories resides near the base of the valley, along level ground, and against the street that allows a relatively inexpensive and incredibly quick suppply line.

Existing Changsin Factories:

[ FACTORY ]
[ PRODUCT ]
[ MARKET ]
MICRO TO MEGA | The typical mass production process involves a single large order designated for a mega factory that specifically manufactures a single product at a time. The mega factory is very efficient, but lacks the diversity in products.
New Pipe System:
CHANGSIN SYSTEM |
12
In the existing Changsin Dong production process the micro factories act individually to produce unique products; each factory recieves a smaller order to be fulfilled, and in order to complete the order specialized work is sub-contracted out among several smaller facilities. The movement between facilities as well as material distribution requires motorbike transport through the connecting allys.
PROPOSED SYSTEM | By incorporating the pneumatic pipe system into the district, the area of manufacturers becomes a cohesive mega-factory. The new mega-factory still allows for a diversity in product design by maintaining the individuality of each factory, but the system creates an efficient transportation system that can compete with the current mass production facilities.

IH-25
1404 Wynkoop, Denver, Colorado is located near the heart of downtown only three blocks away from Union Station. The site is 125’ long by 62’ wide with a small outcropping, 20’x25’ on the East side. The existing program of the site is a pay to park asphalt black top, and the site is bordered by mixed-use apartment/commercial/offices. The neighboring building to the East has windows that look West towards the site. The site’s topography slopes from West to East (away from the creek), and North to South. The site abutts an alley that links the 16th street mall with the site, and acts as the primary drainage corridor for the Wynkoop and Wazee St. blocks. The site is directly between the Pepsi Center and Coors Field, and the site is only a few blocks away from the University of Colorado at Denver.

AUSTIN STUDIO | SITUATION | The city of Austin is divided by IH-35 which runs from the Northern edge of the United States to the Southern tip of Texas. An extreme connection like this interstate highway brings with it extreme volumes of traffic, only maginified by the urban density. Within this urban environment is the entertainment district, in downtown Austin, which includes 5th, 6th, 7th, and RedRiver street. The site is located on the edge of this district and brushes shoulders with the country long vein, and the devisive Waller Creek.
INTERVENTION | The proposal is a connective tissue to join the East and West sides of Waller creek while preparing for the future of IH-35. The tissue acts as a connector, but becomes a place.

DIAGRAMATIC MODEL | The extension and connect the East and West side of Waller Creek manifests itself as a gesture encouraging traffic into the building through an unconventional direction. The traditional ‘back’ of the property faces the creek, but in a program of performance the volume of the ‘front’ is practically unfavorable. By shifting the performance program to the creek side, the point of interest shifts. This new gesture not only creates an easy means of crossing the creek, but it creates an intriguing entrance through a performance space on the creek.

DiMeND | SITUATION | Gamification is the use of interactive displays to encourage social interaction. Our proposal is to visually display proximities systematically using the Java based Processing platform. Our code calls for a video capture that tracks pixel color (246 white), and establishes clusters of color or “blobs” that may be mapped and used as nodes. These nodes are then visually represented by an ellipse at which they may be connected by neighboring blobs. This collection of points and lines amorphosly defines the participant’s motion, and as two different individuals approach a specified threshold connections begin to connect each collection of nodes. The project creates an interactive incentive to breakdown the layers of social boundries our culture has, and through the game-like situation begins to spark conversation between strangers. The project may also act as a billboard for a less populated area in town at which the class exhibition was held. The Urban Tech location in downtown Lubbock counterintuitively is sparsly occupied after 5:00pm. The projection of a 46’ X 24’ display 15’ off the ground acted as an invitation to the unknown location. https://youtu.be/mJbQqAEzbMc
