Project Statement The task for project 1 was to look for “feral forms” around Los Angeles. Our form hunt was guided by Reyner Banham’s “Four Ecologies”.

The form chosen was a metal bridge located in Harbor City (Plains of Id). Its form celebrates the idea of hierarchy between components, in which a single form is reliant upon two forms.

Project Statement Post P1, P2 is an analysis and transformation of the chosen form. Reverting back to the hierarchial components of the three forms, the supporting forms (Form A and Form B) that supports the center form (Form C) now creates a consequence between all formal relations.

If Form A and Form B are transformed, how will Form C react autonomously?

Project 03

Project Statement The final project is to create a program and architecture within a site context given. (Plains of Id) located in Gardner St. and Sunset Blvd.

With consequence in mind, “Systems as placement” is an investigation between space for living, and utility spaces.

How can the placement of systems below dictate the volumes of habitation above while simultaneously informing its usage? The placement of objects such as: electrical system, water system, and vertical system creates the program of a “community-based” hydroponics garden.

Alluding back to Banham’s Plains of Id reading in which this project challenges: Noting that the endless grid created by the plains of Id have destroyed the community spirity. This project seeks to respect the original idea of plains of Id as an agricultural ecology, but with the revival of a community spirit in mind.
