LOCATION : DEIRA, DUBAI
The aim of this project was to map the understanding of the verb to interact along a 100m line. Located in Deira, Dubai along a building cut out creating an alley and across the road into a hotel lobby. This line explored outdoor courtyards, restaurants and hotels. Interaction is a very humanized sense and to map this verb a criteria of Space-Person and Person-Person interactions were studied through the site. In terms of person-space the existing site was mapped as is with the highlights overlapped as images to show how people started to interact with the spaces. For example the use of installations as a photo spots, the building cutout became a shaded alley that directed massive footfalls due to the hot climate and due to the busy restaurants as people waited in line the planter boxes become spaces with people sat and waited. For the people-people interaction the static and dynamic natures were mapped from the people on site the everyday (workers in black and white) and the customers (in colors - always changing). How people interacted with each other work also explode, solos were quite, duo’s had burst of conversation that broke down into silence and larger groups generated large noises and ample interaction. This was combined with the physical vs virtual nature of this relationship. The merging and overlays of smell were also mapped as there were a multitude of cuisines that blended together to entice people

DESIGNING THE UN/MEASURABLE || OFFICE DESIGN
In the process of designing the measurable and unmeasurable though the exploration of office spaces, Firstly the functions were set, these series of models explored how 2 function of opposing interaction needs could be designed together, from least interactive (Data analyst) to most interactive(Event management). A matrix was set up which helped in the analysis by studying the physical and visual interactions. Through the exploration there came an understanding that there could be visual interaction sans the physical, however in the instance of a physical, a visual connection was always present.
The office structures and requirements were also set within the 2 small offices and teams with a total of 21 people. Various office typologies were explored from pods to collaborative office and in-turn was adapted into the experimentation series to understand how they could effect interactions.

In the process of designing for visual connectivity the levels were really pushed to the boundaries to understand at what point did visual interactions halt. the idea of the play in levels also enforced the hierarchy within the office structure, hinder and opposing the idea of interaction. In the model there is no sense of physical interaction between the 2 function however the design within this spaces enhancing the idea of visual connectivity at ever level.
FUNCTIONAL ZONING
DESIGNING THE UN/MEASURABLE
DESIGNING FOR COMMON FUNCTION
For the design of common spaces, the 2 functions were physically separated through enclosures with a touch of visual interaction. The function at various levels were explored and the common spaces designed were the lounge, and meeting spaces to integrate the clients needs for the event firm. The notion of adaptability was explored through rotating panels, make spaces more private and public.
FUNCTIONAL ZONING
DESIGNING FOR VISUAL CONNECTIVITY
This series tested how the 2 function could be integrated into each-other through spatial and furniture design. The enclosures, levels, furniture all intertwined with each-other. While though functionality the office hierarchic was maintained , between the same level the arrangement of the staff were explored and how that would in turn impact their interactions.

MODEL 1: VISUAL CONNECTIVITY
- Mixed levels
- Single points of entry
- Maintain office hierarchy
- Individual enclosures
-Varied forms of vertical circulation
FURTHER MODEL DEVELOPMENTS
MODEL 2: COMMON FUNCTIONS
- Mixed levels
- Single points of entry
- Maintain office hierarchy
- Archways
- Louvers
- Functionally enclosed
- Slanted walls
- Adaptable zones
MODEL 3: INTEGRATED FUNCTION
- Mixed levels
- Single points of entry
- Maintain office hierarchy
- Archways
- Louvers
- Open office
- Blending furniture
MODEL A : 1 + 2
This model mixes the visual connectivity elements with the common function elements. Through the use of the individual pods for more private spaces and a common floor with the availability of rotating planes to offer the privacy option., the stepped effect allows for further visual connectivity across levels.
MODEL B : 1 + 3
This model mixed visual connectivity and the integrated function model. The notion of the individual pods remain in a more linear fashion with the idea of the merging planes working across the archways and becoming functional spaces as well as circulation spaces
MODEL C : 2 + 3
This model mixes the common with the integrated functions. The use of merging elements of the louvers blend into the slanting planes and floor plates. Archways define the circulations and the creative office typology is designed in. The single point of entry s still maintained.

SELECTION CRITERIA
CREEK METRO STATION
The matrix below was used to select the final site. Karama was selected as the final site as it really tested the verb. It would challenged compared to creek where whatever was implemented would bring interaction to the site and Baniyas which is surround by high-rise buildings which would hinder the idea of interacting with the surrounding. This site was heavily built up allowing the exploration of integrating the form with the existing surrounding. There is a rich urban context, making it accessible central and connected. The view of the site also fit in with the UN agency selected. The raised metro with the well know shell will provide a challenge, as the form with need to work to interact with it.

SITE, INVESTIGATION & BRIEF ||
The area of intervention is defined as seen in the diagram to the left. This area was selected as it stood to be the most isolated part in this highly dense and populated site. There exist the challenge and opportunity to connect the 2 segregated areas, Karama and Mankool as well as address the points of interaction or there lack off along the z-axis.
1. Running along the facade of the karama buildings. This plane responds to the visual connectivity of the residents with the streets.
2. Intersects the crosswalk, where two modes of movement interact.
3. Runs along the Mankool facades. There is the opportunity to gather people and connect the 2 districts.
4. There exists the possibility to map the areas which lack interaction but could benefit from it.

ANALYSIS
USER GROUPS
- The average wind speed in Dubai is 4-6 m/s.
- Prevailing winds come in from the N-W direction.
- Other slower winds come in predominantly from the south.
- Low rise nature of the site provides the opportunity for the form to be designed to integrate views.
- Average wind temperatures range from 30-40 C
- Hottest winds - summer winds are the prevailing winds
- Souther winds are cooler, hitting higher temperatures for shorter amounts of time
- If wind is to be used in the design, some cooling measures (water features- evaporative cooling) need to be implements to make full use of wind.
USER GROUPS
- Site has a NE-SW alignment
- During the day, shadows fall along the primary road pavements
- During the evening the shadows are cast along the secondary road pavements.
- The close proximity of the buildings create alleyways and cooler/shaded pedestrian walkways.
- All roof tops show high levels of radiation absorption
- Alleyway/sikkas and areas under the metro show lower levels of radiation as they are shaded.
- Curved forms like the metro show lower levels of radiations.

To begin the process of site mapping, interactive functions were mapped against non- interactive functions . These studies were done across all 3 levels that existing on the site - ground, platform & concourse. Barriers were observed with the subsequent movement (interactive) patterns at various times of the day. A place of transactions (interactive) caused people to pause in the spaces. At every turning points, the long range view was captured - how perspectives can change

SITE, INVESTIGATION & BRIEF
- Public bus station - lots of movement and becomes a place of pause
- Lack of isolation under the metro(central road median
- Roads create sharp edges that divide the site
- No views at ground level
- Periphery building- ground retail define movement paths.
- Views from tunnels - allow possibility of function to frame views
- Tunnels channel high volumes of people- public functions integrated to enhance functions
- Multiples transactions and barriers cause ample pause and movement within main body of metro
- Views to skyline seen from bridges
- High levels of movement occur in bursts.
- Highly private area - security must be maintained
- Views tie in with function
- Visual connectivity to site restrained to the ends of the metro platform

THE SOCIALITY OF ARCHITECTURE: DeSIgnIng for change
Imagine you were in a quite white padded room, alone with your thoughts. No one to talk to, discuss with, converse, or have fun with….
a never-ending ‘self-narrative.’
Interaction in every form is needed for humans to survive. We would perish with loneliness and not knowing what to do next.
Architecture in its essence is a SOCIAL ACTIVITY and social interactions are the cornerstone of all human activity.
Designs are able to have impacts on large quantities of people and effect their qualities of life.
A space MUST invite and encourage social dynamics and architecture has the ability change the ways we design places for community and gathering of the masses.
Over time people have constantly changed, from a physical to virtual interaction. But there is a sense of loss through the virtual world, with a lack of human touch.
However, architecture has the capacity to be timeless pieces which evoke dialogue with the users.
The nature of spaces is characterized by the functions within them, they have the power to attract and encourage interactions. With light, nature, adaptation, design we CAN change the quality of spaces to BREAK THE BOUNDARIES, and allow for seamless conversations with forms and people.
To design for interaction, we will need to create spaces that enhance visual and physical connections through planes, openings or enclosures that can be manipulated to create more open spaces where people can interact.
In these spaces people will come together, exchange, conflict, compete or cooperate all within a singular space.

An essential part of reducing energy consumption within a structure is using LEDs. This structure has a TRILUX LED lighting system built throughout it. Energy.gov claims that LEDs consume 90% less energy than standard incandescent light bulbs and last over 25 times longer, which means that investing in LED lighting can significantly reduce annual electricity consumption. In order to achieve optimum efficiency, TRILUX LEDs were employed, which offers a maintenance benefit since the lights would come from the same supplier as opposed to having various suppliers for each room. LED layout throughout the whole building. The auditorium receives the most amount of daylight with a glass dome, concluding that the auditorium requires the least amount of lighting throughout the day. The proximity sensors that are built into each room enable energy-efficient lighting since they prevent the usage of lighting when a room is vacant by turning the lights off automatically. A smart meter is placed in the service room located inside the building which annotates the energy consumption of the building monthly or annually. This would help in understanding the room for improvement or any flaws that may occur during the installation phase. It is located strategically as whenever maintenance is required; the smart meter can be repaired without causing any interruptions to the workflow within the building. On-site grey water irrigation system 100% greywater from the sinks is filtered and used for irrigation of the surrounding external farm an cleaning open courtyard. Sustainable benefits: Reduce the need for fresh water, cuts down on the amount of wastewater in our sewer systems Semi-transparent modules made of Amorphous crystalline silicon Efficiency ranges from 6% - 14% Reduce the area requirement, and they reduce the material and infrastructure costs of the building itself. Provides weather protection, noise protection, and daylight illumination Energy savings due to superior thermal insulation properties Heat source is outside air cheaper than GSHP and more practical to install Made from high quality purest silicon, require less space, highest power output, Efficiencies of 15-20%, Reasonably long lifetimes (~25 years), Expensive, Better performance than other materials for low light conditions Daily production capacity is up to 30 liters per day Can produce cold water, as well as hot drinking water. Up to 5 liters of fresh drinking water by water extraction using KWH Facilitates significant water production in climates with humidity as low as 20% AI-based smart waste bin for recycling waste Sorts and compresses the waste automatically Wireless ultrsonic sensors controls the fill level and processes data for convenient waste management. 80% decrease in waste disposal The unit has the ability to take in up to 6 liters per day of any food waste or up to 15 liters per day of animal manure and turn it biogas as well as organic fertilizer. Organic waste converter Smart Bins We decided to mesh Art Jameels landscaping with our own creating these very fluid patches whilst respecting the very linear nature of the build through the planted steps located towards the south of the site under the bridge we have allocated for local farming Rooms Area (m2) Lobby + multi-purpose space 200 Offices 150 Meeting room 50 Auditorium 400 Multiuse space Exhibition250 Café 150 Washrrom 1 45 Washroom 2 45 Climate change workshop 1 75 Climate change workshop 275 Climate change workshop 375 UN workshop1 75 UN workshop2 75 UN workshop3 75 Temporary exhibtion space200 Permenant Exhibition 200 Services 100 Total Area 2240 Area statement Rooms Area (m2) Lobby + multi-purpose space 200 Offices 150 Meeting room 50 Auditorium 400 Multiuse space - Exhibition250 Café 150 Washrrom 45 Washroom 2 45 Climate change workshop 75 Climate change workshop 275 Climate change workshop 375 UN workshop1 75 UN workshop2 75 UN workshop3 75 Temporary exhibtion space200 Permenant Exhibition 200 Services 100 Total Area 2240 Area statement Rooms Area (m2) Lobby + multi-purpose space 200 Offices 150 Meeting room 50 Auditorium 400 Multiuse space - Exhibition250 Café 150 Washrrom 45 Washroom 2 45 Climate change workshop 75 Climate change workshop 275 Climate change workshop 375 UN workshop1 75 UN workshop2 75 UN workshop3 75 Temporary exhibtion space200 Permenant Exhibition 200 Services 100 Total Area 2240 Area statement Dead loads pre-stressed concrete structures RoofingThickness – 0.2m Soil – 1m Average length – 7.5m Average width – 9.01 m Auditorium RoofingThickness – 0.1m Area – 887.4 m Services – 1kN/m Live loads: Lounge side – C11 – kN/m2 Workshops – C35 – kN/m Auditorium – C21 – 4 kN/ m Load asses mentPermanent Loads (G Volume Contributing (m Density (kg/m Mass (Kg) Load (kN) Roofing .2 x 7.5 9.01 2200 29773 292 Roofing (lounge) .2 x 887.4 2200 390461 3830 Roofing (Auditorium) 0.1 x 387 2600 100620 987.1 Soil 229.7 1300 298603 2929.3 STRUCTURE Calculations Elevation - Auditorium roof Materiality Courtyard View Trails View Exploded Diagram - Construction Aluminium cladding Structural drawing STRIP FOUNDATION INDIVIDUAL FOUNDATION **All the structural information in this poster strictly adheres to Eurocode: British Standard.
