MID-SEM

Mid-semester Critic Question: Is this design specifically for the people with the personality type INTJ? Maybe do not mention the personality type as it is misleading.

As a masterplan, it should speak to surrounding areas, this administration building should be respectful to its neighbour, it should incorporating what you are producing but not trying to separate its own identity. At the moment, you are almost are trying to counteract what’s happening next door. I think that is problematic, as you rejecting the past, you are promoting something new instead. I think it should be homogeneous and it should speak to each other as one language.

Response: The building incorporates both a program of immersive theatre and an administrative program. It serves as a creative engine for the surrounding entertainment industry, as it provides collective practice spaces for the adjacent theatre companies. So it’s like a warehouse of performance, complementary to the existing fabric of performing arts. However, simultaneously, the immersive theatre introduces theatrical experience that is missing from the current theatre performance industry, as it differentiates itself from traditional theatre by removing the stage and immersing audiences within the performance itself. Hence, this building takes a counteraction to the existing industry as it takes the opportunity of demonstration in front of the parliament house, sharpening its identity from the rest.

Question: At the very beginning, you talked about the CBD as the centre of work, as the prison, a series of negative connotation to the CBD and work in general. Why in your proposal you created essentially a maze and a confusing experience in this building both for the parties and guests.

Response: Just to make it a joke, a prison in a prison could be a heaven if you have been to one.

First of all, the experience in any traditional theatre should be separated from the outside street space and social network, so that the guests and performers can focus on the show. That means no phone calls, and no openings in the major performance space. This still applies to and becomes more critical to the immersive theatre. Audience have to lock their phones in a seal bag with them before entering the maze. Hence, without internet inside the immersive theatre space, audience would have to become a part of the performance and start their own exploration in the highly realistic spaces as if they are living in, observing, and interacting with the fiction.

Comment: I challenge you being so binary about that. Just sort of looking forward beyond this particular project, the role the architect plays, the position you might wanna take I think it is important to be more aspirational to your design objectives.

Response: I think the binary coexist in this building.

Question: Your building takes the language of international style and somewhat Russian constructivist. I wonder how you ended up making that kind of formal move and stylistic move, relating to your research.

Response: I think the circulation spaces, like the curvilinear ramps, walls with linear openings and arches of ascending heights, are postmodern, with reference to James Stirling and Tadao Ando. The folded ramps of the maze refer to Jo Coenen’s Dutch Institute of Architecture.

The gesture of the roof slightly tilting upwards is to optimise the viewing experience when the guest proceed to the rooftop sauna.

Also, its tilting slope mimics the lounge chair for lying on it toward the sun.

The column grids are universal as they are required to support the modular system of the immersive theatre, where intermediate floors can be added if required. As the performance company would present a different immersive show, requiring a totally different stage set, maybe in three or five years, the immersive theatre would be refurbished to accommodate another set of interior experience.

FAÇADE MATERIALITY PRECEDENTS

DEE AND CHARLES WYLY THEATER_OMA AND REX

The perforated aluminum lighting system for wyly theatre emulates the billowing fabric of a closed curtain.

Perforations in key areas allow for elegant lighting of the building’s signage.

The critial idea is to experiment with contemporary materials to mimic the atmospheric expression of the traditional curtain. This can signify the identity of the performing arts at the façade and building envolope.

FAÇADE MATERIALITY PRECEDENTS

KINDERGARTEN IN WÜRENLINGEN_ESTRADA REICHEN AND MALTE K ARCHITEKTEN

Necessity can be the mother of unconventional things: the unusual materials and supporting structure of the new kindergarten in Würenlingen are closely connected to what is concealed beneath the new structure. With mighty ceiling supports of prestressed concrete, Estrada Reichen and Malte K Architekten have ensured that no columns were needed for the interior of the building.

Exterior walls of exposed concrete transfer the vertical load. An undulant texture produced by a covering of semi-circular elastomere matrices takes on some of the weight as well.

The brutalist material, concrete, is used in a playful manner, creating niches to light and shadow.

SHED #19_ANDREA OLIVA ARCHITETTO

Renovating the city’s forgotten past, Andre Oliva Architetto completely revitalise a large industrial unit in to a contemporary, multi-functional space fit for any purpose.

Remaining loyal to the original structure, Shed 19 features an imposing large roof structure whose figurative features are expressed through the shape of the empty, confined space that resides below. As a consequence the available area and the public space below is improved through an abundance of natural materials alongside the stream of glass windows that flood natural light in to the large structure.

The industrial shed contributes to the identity.

Hi Peter,

Sorry I missed the catchup session today, as I got the time di erence in the opposite direction (I thought of 12:30 plus 2hr, but actually it should be 12:30 minus 2hr).

Just a quick update on the design:

I looked back to the midsem spatial arrangement - positioning the immersive theatre above GF. Comparing this with this week’s iteration of putting its main space underground, I re-evaluated the relationship between immersive theatre and the traditional theatre.

Here I nd three Paths of design / options:

fi

ff

1. In the last iteration, immersive theatre underground, SPA resort on the top…I tried to nd the best form of the top block as an inverted complementary form of the o ce block.

2. Taking the advice of restraining the SPA&sauna program and just focus on the immersive theatre. Considering the immersive theatre would need undergo several weeks of internal refurbishments and stage set installation, there would be around 1 - 3 months of gap where no immersive show is open to the public - this suggests the whole building would be largely disused for its main function, although rehearsal spaces and o ce operate as normal. This means the building could have two separate programs of immersive theatres that ensure the public always have at least one immersive show to experience. Based on this idea, there could be one underground and another upper-level immersive theatres. This spatial arrangement informs that there are two opposite types of immersive theatres - one silently hidden and concealed underground as if the experience inside is completely escaped from the outside reality, another oating above the surrounding roo ines and showcasing all the lighting colour changes through its translucent facade as the performance inside proceeds. This oating block behaves like an illuminating gem at night as its exterior colour re ects all the lighting changes of the inside show, while it is simply translucent white during the day. I realised that this design option is somewhat in uenced by my own personality types which explore architectural contradictions just like in the pervious work space artefact. I am not sure if this controversial relationship is good/broadening perspectives about the immersive theatre, or bad/weakening the concept.

3. Having thought about the Path 2, I started to struggle a bit on the alternative idea of forgoing the underground immersive theatre and just retaining the upper one. I question if the idea of having two immersive theatres that can eradicate disuse gaps is fundamentally necessary. It certainly has some merit to the overall program. But on the other hand in terms of explaining the overall scheme to the panel, it could add extra work load and time, and if not expressed appropriately, it could make the concept confusing (relating to the idea of what relationship / position do I take between the immersive theatre and traditional ones like the Princess Theatre). So maybe just retaining the upper one can increase the overall design clarity. Hence I increased the volume of the oating block, making it visually imposing and slightly cantilevering over the front facade and the princess theatre. Hence, the red block with curtainlike cladding which represents the traditional theatre is visually somewhat suppressed by the new type of theatre - expressing a relationship challenging the traditional type. Besides, the o ce side of the red block is re ned to make a void in the same shape of the steep-corner design workshop, as it with the sunken amphitheatre mimics the form of the traditional theatre - conveying the idea of the traditional theatre has become obsolete and converted to an urban plaza for civic use, activating the street corner in front of the parliament.

Based on the evaluation process above, I think the Path 3 is the most appropriate. But I am still not con dent on the following matters:

1. The re ned form of three white cubes imposing over the red blocks - maybe I am overly obsessed with perfect pure forms - the cubes are perfect squared with gridded ns of 4x4 perfect squares indicating the internal rooms on each face. I feel this is simplistic, sculpted and perfect but what do you think?

2. From the top view, the three squares are slighting overhanging over the street front and the right hand side princess theatre, meaning it is crossing the border by at most 1 meter. Is this allowed ? Even though it might not be practical and permitted in practice.

3. As for the structure and materiality of the white cubes, I think of using the structure of the Timmerhuis by OMA in Rotterdam - the steel structural mega-frames that suggest lightness in its open plan.

4. Considering the requirements of an immersive show installation and also its performance lighting requirements. During the show, some rooms need to become in complete darkness to create a seamless atmosphere for that moment of performance, also some rooms are fully enclosed by speci c installation and stage-set furnishing. This means some squares of the cubes’ facade will become in complete darkness, and all the rooms’ glass facade need to be able to turn into shield or blind in millisecond during certain moments of the show when required. This makes me to think of a speci c glass curtain wall that uses static electricity to instantaneously turn into a blind shield to stop the transfer of light - called electrochromic glass / window. But it is usually used internally for smart o ce, and I am not sure if it can be used on exterior facade. Then I found the SageGlass which has been applied on exterior windows to control natural light and energy intake…. But I am not sure if it is too expensive and demanding to be applied to large panels of the white cubes. https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=j9NtRuPbmV4 this is the link to the SageGlass. In particular, I nd this SageGlass less shielding than the ones used in smart o ce. Maybe there are better ones that can turn into complete blind when static electricity is applied to the layer of ceramic particles.

TIMMERHUIS_OMA

For the enclosure, the building’s triple glazed curtain wall façade uses hi-tech translucent insulation that allows for unprecedented energy efficiency. This surface strategy combines with the Timmerhuis massing to mediate between the surrounding existing buildings.

Through the modular system, units can adapt to either office space or residential parameters, and green terraces on higher levels of the envelope provide the possibility of an apartment with a garden in the heart of urban Rotterdam.

143 FÜNF HÖFE THEATINERSTRASSE 11 MUNICH_ HERZOG DE MEURON

Herzog & de Meuron studio is carefully exploring the possibilities of perforated sheet filters.

The whole façade of this building in Munich is covered with a layer of horizontal folding sliding metal panels.

The manipulation of these leaves can be done from the inside through a sophisticated mechanism, so as a pantograph.

Each leaf is formed from a drilled metal sheet, with circular perforations about a couple of centimetres diameter. The perforated sheet is then corrugated, giving the panel more rigidity and a more complex transparency.
