MUSEUM OF CONSPIRACY THEORY CONSPIRACY. The word that has sparked the wildest of ideas for events we have had in history.

To take grains of the truth and intruguing thoughts to feed into emotion for believers. Our world is fascinated by questioning what we know is reality. Was the moon landing real? Is the earth flat? What happened on 9/11?

Why not make a museum for It? In the heart of Dallas’art District, this museum holds attraction to journey through these theories and create your own narrative.

conspiracy theory : architectural interpretation

“Create an experience that embodies a mystery.” Conspiracy theories invoke fear, mystery, confusio to mind to objectively display information about known theories as more of a journey of investigation

the “maze”

incline & decline

The experience is to explore the conspiracy theories with open ended beliefs. A maze of pathways leads the visitors through a journey to narrative their own beliefs of the theories.

The up & down movement of the gallery spaces emmulate the journey that sceptics go on when researching a theory.

on, and intrigue among the public. Five different elements came n and curiousity.

claustrophobia

isolated space

High walls to create this enclosed, tight space to mimic the feeling of falling down a rabbit hole of hypotheticals.

Enclosed by a pyramid-like glass structure, the “maze” strengthens this feeling of being trapped, too invested in the realities of these conspiracies.

Reimaging our creative spaces

What motivates our creativity?

WIthin studio culture, we spend long hours designing and communicating the visions of our built environment but have we taken a step to understand the place that supports us is also in need of reimagining? An investigation to improve our workspaces that balances our need for collaboration & individual creative outlets.

The initial strategies to creating an ideal creative space started with these words:

support, trust, commitment, open debate, conflict, autonomy, studio culture, and sense of belonging Through our research this semester, we narrowed down specific tactics and components that dramatically affect one’s creativity in a workspace.

comfortability

Thermal, Lighting, Ventilation, Ergonomics

Collaboration vs.

Individual Work

Hard to provide the ability of choice to overall temperature and lighting situation of the space but design for ideal scenerio.

More spaces to separate workflow - area for desk crits - lounge space - presentation space - individual study pods - collaborative island

Mix of natural and artifical lighting, higher ceilings for ventilation and illusion of more space.

Furniture choice can make a difference in the space so good to consider.

26

activity

identity

functionality

Identity of the studio space is an environment that invites students to share ideas and open to feedback.

Is studio a place that you can actually get your work done in?

Bright colors into studios can change the dynamic of the space, encouraging life and joy.

More pin-up space can provide more opportunities to display ideas and prevent clutter.

Creating more functionality and effectiveness to the environment.

Amenities, colors, better suited furniture.

study pods: 2 quiet rooms for individual-focus work, a change of scenery, etc. material library / collab space: drafting table for hands-on partner work, collection of assets for physical visualization

presentation area presentation / lounge: flex space with moveable furniture for different configurations for usage.

center divider with different uses: meeting area, cabinetry for amentities, separation of space.

workspace: flexibility to bring tech. of choice, standing desks, pin-up space and natural lighting

upon entry

semi-open plan: space isn’t completely closed off with workspaces on open floor plan with divider in the center, separated spaces within one room

PERSONAL WORKS

The foundation of my work comes from the freedom and ability to illustrate my surroundings. From my professors, the importance of a simple sketch can convey the experience you encounter with what you are designing. I desire to capture and experience the world through my art.
