Human scale is an important consideration in architecture because it has a significant impact on the way people experience and interact with buildings and the surrounding environment.
Human scale can create a connection between people and their surroundings. Buildings that are designed to be in proportion with human beings can create a sense of harmony and balance, which can promote a feeling of well-being and connection to the space.

KIT OF PARTS DRAFTS
As I enter, I am drawn down a hallway enclosed on the right side by the staicase. The stair support system creates a linear repitition that draws me in.
The staged enclosure invites me upward. The windows create a well lit space and offer a glimpse of the outdoors. The stage can be used for concerts or any outdoor performace.

Once I decend from the stage, I am drawn into the art gallery space where I am brought to the seating area to view the stage. The linear stair supports offer an intimate space.
I accend the main staircase to the central rooftop. The floating staircase creates a panoramic experience for the viewer. From this perspective, I can see through the main window.
I am presented with a whole view of the space left of the main staircase. The window connects the central space to the Side A Wing. Along the side, there is a pinnup and gallery space.
The rooftop balcony’s view connects the lower level, stage, and rooftop area. From this space, I can see the stage and admire the art in the gallery.

SITE ANALYSIS
For our design, we deemed that the gallery needed to be connected to the outdoor sketching area. Our sketching space is directly connected to The Grove because it is important to be one with nature. The sketching space is facing north with provides natural light without harsh UV rays.
