2008 Studio Project

This project was part of the comprehensive design studio program which aims to encourage creative architectural proposals with economic decisions based on appropriateness of construction, technology, context and expression.

The concept was simple, separation of public and private theater space with a thick concrete L. The site has an interesting juxtaposition of residential adjacency on one side and a busy public street on the other. The defining L was also used to keep quite, smaller scale building components toward the residential side and open, active spaces on the public street side.

Along with a full set of comprehensive documents, an 1/8 scale model and ½ scale slice model was built to further explore construction.
