Visibility through each room and each floor Reframed Activity

The original building main space was taken by office and retail, the activity was only restricted to these programs. After re building, the new activity will embraced by resident commercial office retail and public park.

04 The Great Outdoor

Design steps

Site location: New York City 2020 Fall Group Work Instructor: Luc Wilson Architecture Typologies, Urban design, Computational design

Design goal

Building typologies

Set grid system options + urban density

Input social distance data per household

Network analysis in 3D circulation

In the wake of a global pandemic, communities desperately seek out public areas, particularly open space. Yet, the overall activity for the city lagged. Achieve the extreme urban comfort of outdoor public spaces and explore their relationship to the building typologies and urban fabric layout during Pandemic.
