A16_2: Schematic Design Process (Program + Parti + Massing)

The following studies shows the design details of the program.

A diagram of the feelings that I would like to evoke in the public, who explore my performance center. Also, I have highlighted the considerations for each space of the program.

The public spaces have different design references as a guideline.

A16_1: Schematic Design Process (Massing + Site + Program)

The following studies shows how the interaction between massing, site and program is imperative to make the design flow appropriately.

The re-defined sketches of floor plans and sections are shown below oriented correctly to the north.

A13: Massing Development & Model 3


The following massing study was a combination of design references, site shape and approach.



A13: Massing Development & Massing 2


The following massing study was a refined interpretation of hybrid model and zoning requirements considerations.


A13: Massing Development & Model 1

The following massing study was a direct interpretation from the concept models and collages. 


A12: Concept Development - Hybrid Model

The following hybrid model represents the red hook's artistic soul.


A14: Programmatic Study & Development

The following diagrams shows the how the massing interacts with the site as well as the south sky and routes of access.
The floor plan layouts are shown along with the spaces classification per floor. The section allows us to understand how important are the height of the spaces to make space appropriate.








A9: Furniture Layout and Space Dimensions

 The following diagrams shows the typical layout for theater, art gallery and bar along with the human dimensions.
Visual field, seating area and standing personal space is also shown.






A15: Midterm Presentation

The following post collects all my design progress.
