THE FUTURE OF WORK PAT R I K S C H U M AC H E R 'S S T U D I O MADHURI MACHCHHI, MIOSLAV NASKOV, QI LIU, XIANGFAN CHAN AADRL / ARCHITECTURE AND URBANISM SELECTED FOR CLOSING THE SHOW FOR AADRL FINAL JURY

The Patrik Schumacher’s studio at DRL aims to

examine the future of work as design research that examines the means to enable this experimentation. The project requires to find and explore new ways to build interaction between human agents and mobile. The gestalt theory, phenomenology, and kinetic components become of the tools to design this parametric work-sphere.

Everything in nature uncontrollably changes with time. The way architecture responds/ behaves to this change could be however controlled. Our architecture respects the uncontrolled change with hour, day, week and season. Vortexture puts forward an architecture that is agile, activity based and challenges our ideas of organization and static typologies.

Materializing permanent physical form – it is a space that is constant fluctuation. There is no final typicality; it’s an architecture in a process that regenerates and adapts with the change in space and time.

URBAN AFFILIATION

As part of the Stoke Newington Cam-

pus, we are trying to create a continuous urban fabric across individual buildings.

As well as we are adapting our design proposal to the surrounding neighbourhood. We are using maurvature as means of design to communicate stronger with the surrounding environment. The new building incorporates and thereby transforms existing buildings and spaces into a new cluster of spaces. Our in-site landscape is open to the school and its sport and playground facilities.

“A

mandala is a spiritual and ritual symbol in Hinduism and Buddhism, representing the universe. In common use, “mandala” has become a generic term for any diagram, chart or geometric pattern that represents the cosmos metaphysically or symbolically; a microcosm of the universe.”

Based on the plain geometry of square that rotates to form Octagon. Signature project is the luxurious residential tower designed by Design Architect Scott Peter of Sobha Developers. The plan follows the symmetry throughout the project.

MUSEUM OF DREAMS, FRAGMENTED REALITIES THESIS PROJECT- B ARCH ARCHITECTURE AND DESIGN AWARDED AS THE BEST PROJECT FROM THE CLASS - SENIOR SHOW CASE

Our mind is capable of creating intangible archi-

tecture through dreams. Can architecture recreate this intangibility into reality? Everything we experience in this dream space is never created out of pure imagination. It’s formed out of the experiences and memories of reality.

There is no much difference in realities and dreams. They both happen to us in the ephemeral moment then fade away and remain only in our memories as fragments.

This project aims to discover and travel through fragments of space and discover the unreality in reality and realizing perhaps there is no membrane in between reality and dreams. The aim is to find the agitated, trance space that lies within- done through the fragmentation of layers in between. It wishes to “bridge” the journey to the alternative world displaced from reality. The overall form floats like a cloud with the embracing architecture that invokes dreamers to cross the threshold.

The architecture of night is a collective for all mankind to experience the most humane of dreaming.

CAPTURING FRAGMENTED URBAN VIEWS

When one travel in this dream-

scape, they see reality sweeping in trough the fragmented urban views.

The randomness of those experience of this fragmented realities is what makes it more like our dream.

GROUND FLOOR PLAN There are two ways to enter, one is from the creek - a journey taken by boat and the other one is on the pedestrian level. Here, one finds themselves attained by the spiritualness of dreams. They take a spiritual journey to reach the temple of dreams followed by the mediation space. Space is submerged inside the water, allowing them to feel the depth of their subconsciousness.

TEMPLE OF DREAMS

O ne reaches the temple at the start of their journey, The maze of mirror cause self-reflection from one find their lost and found at different fragments.

According to Buddhist Philosophy, it believed that a creative environment can lead to creative dreaming.

Dreamers here can go sleep and continue their journey in the hemisphere of dreams.

Spaces like sleeping cells, embedded in walls and floor, swings and cantilevered sleeping beds are provided for the isolation of the dreamer.

REPERTOIRE OF DREAMS

THESIS BOOK DESIGN SELECTED BOOK FOR THE AUD BOOK EXHIBITION

Dreams are rarely experienced as random

sequences of associated images;instead, dreams are experienced fragmented. They exhibit varying degrees of narrative and thematic coherence (Foulkes 1999). Its been argued that when the waking brain is confronted with fragmented information, it attempts to synthesize these fragments into narrative themes, even if the themes makes a little sense on the surface, when you look deeper,it provides insight of the mind perceiving it (Holden and French 2002). It is believed that dreams act like a magic mirror and Reflect the state of the inner soul. This book provokes the ability to see relationships between the Fragments of our dreams, perhaps providing the readers a glimpse of their Insight. Read this book like how you would try to read your own dreams.

MANSION / PNC ARCHITECTS

Located on the island of UAQ the proposal is to

create a vacation mansion houses for the luxury lifestyle which is more dynamic and modern.

The client desires a house that is iconic and modern. The overall plot is 750 by 300 meters. The house must contain two living rooms-family and guest, two kitchen- greasy and a bar, two dining rooms- family and guest, one study, one guest bedroom, three bedrooms, one master bedroomall having a view of its own.

SHELTER HOUSE The design idea originated after studying the Philippines victims and their sufferings The main idea is to provide them with shelter, which they can call home and where they can build a community and still feel connected. The purpose is to achieve diverse spaces by the simple modular construction. To achieve that, prefabricated mass is provided so that the habitant can self-build it and expand it in anyway.

Offset prefabricated corrugated roofing provides shade from the Philippines sun and protects the evacuees from intense rain and winds. Inside the universally programmed buildings, units inset into each other to provide organized interior/ outdoor spaces. The walls and doors use scrap-shipping palate and corrugated material.

Metal corrugated material repeatedly becomes floor, roof, and wall.

LIGHT BOX

The Light Box was visioned to be a walking kaleidoscope. The idea was to emphasize on the way sunlight or natural light creates the effects of shadows and light, darkness, and brightness and the kind of experience creates for the people walking through such a space. The project consisted of dynamic spaces such as ramps and stairs.

While traveling in this dynamic space, the different colors create different patterns and shades. To see different patterns within a kaleidoscope, one has to rotate the kaleidoscope either clockwise or anti-clockwise. The spiral staircases give visitors the change in the angle of view and experiences as if he is turning within a kaleidoscope. The ramps are designed and placed in such a way that each ramp is overlooking the other, casting different colored and patterned shadows throughout the journey.

The excitement, adventure and antics of Top

Gear converge in this multi-attraction environment. Where families can explore and experience a variety of activities that capture Top Gear’s famous “petrol-head” culture. Rotating exhibition, fantasy RC car tracks, gaming stations, go kart’s and other features assure that there is always a reason to visit everything you are at Dubai. A tuner’s Grande-meets-gastropub will be everyone’s favourite pit-stop to have a pint, fish & chips and catch Formula One on race days. It should: • Capitalizes on the strong car culture in Dubai.

• Skews male, but activities are programmed to appeal to the whole family; • An all-ages experience, but can attract slightly older children and teens.
