Live, Work, Play is a programmatic dilemma that fascinates contemporary architects because of the potential to draw relationships between unique spatial obligations. however the fallacy that an architect will reinvent the way in which people live, work, and play is irrational. Instead of trying to reinvent the wheel, my agenda is to look at each typology as a separate object that is very distinct in terms of how the profession has represented the architectural motifs in which housing, offices, galleries, and theaters operate formally and functionally. My hope is that the conjunction of objectification and hybridization will produce a representation of the Live, Work, Play dilemma that borders irony and novelty.

the large modules are mostly located at street level acting as structural components versus the small modules that describe the overall formal quality

There is a constant struggle between the geometry acting as it wants compared to acting as it should. this notion can be best broken down into the inherent and the capable. the module began with only inherent characteristics that i used as a starting point to begin to explore how the geometry could produce a combinatorial aggregation. these primitive explorations were later extrapolated through scripting. however, this process soon became problematic when the combinatorial was asked to produce something architectural. at this point the capabilities of the module began to gain prominence over the inherent and it became apparent that the degree to which i allowed myself to dictate the module would become an integral part of the project. there is still the question as to what point does the architectural agenda trump the combinatorial without inadvertently undermining the inherent qualities of the module yielding the combinatorial process obsolete.
redeveloping the site geometrically
the project is centered around performance, starting with the performing arts school and extending out into the piazza. programmatically the two have different needs, but are linked through materiality and performance. this necessary synergy between the two creates a juxtaposition piazza of contemporary and classical.

A systematic approach was taken in order to determine the injecton of the main prgrammatic spaces as PARTS that generate a whole {sudios/classrooms/ meet up rooms} The unique urban context of brooklyn allowed for an interesting juxtaposition of materiality and form. the influence of technology and robotics through circiut boards is implemented into the form of the main programmatic spaces, while the urban context manifested itself onto the skin and facades of the lower program spaces

The hanging installation was made of over 800 panels. These were each custom laser cut, assembled, and clad with custom cut images. From underneath the gradual rotation of the panels towards the apex of each vault can be seen. This pattern helps produce a visually dynamic filter of the work that comes alive as you move around it, but also frames the work through the healthy turbulence that exists in the school and the work. It the experimental nature of the school that is the common influence and thread that connects everything in the curriculum. This turbulence can be seen as the force that exposes new conditions within the bounds of the program. -softlabnyc.com
