Final application & conclusion
site/pavilion threshold Referring back to my original tectonic goals, the clamping occurs as the user is drawin in to the entry pavilion at the top of the hill. The pin is the vertical circulation that connects users from the entry down into the slope. The layering of the structure supports the separaration of public and private spaces. Layering also occurs in section as the user experiences each pavilion, giving way to the open space between the three pavilions.
I felt this was a successful translation of my original tectonic concepts from idea to site, then to program. I was able to learn that site and program should always be interconnected, and the threshold between them is important to create a successful user experience. Although the form is a somewhat literal translation, the concept behind the separation of spaces is what drove the project to fully interact with the site.
