SMART BOX

The shape of the site gives me total freedom to design. I push the whole site to a height of 45 meters to play with the maximum volume. I decided to design 2 building . The shape of the site tells me how to split the volume and where we should put them both. To have the maximum direction of views i decided to use a square shape for the base of the towers, taking advantage of the great views around sheikh zayed road. Taking the mass that doesn’t belong to the square shap , by overlap them to grow up the building height. Surroundings’ characteristics and future streets alignments gives us the geometry optimization.

DUBAI PUBLIC LIBRARY

The Library building concepts combines a static learning center for libraries, offices, lecture halls, and an auditorium, with flying workspaces and off-site to allow for more dynamic collaboration and exchange. This concept might sound crazy, but it is certainly a great example of a minimal footprint.

The studio spaces will be split between an off-site “floating building” with “plug-and-play” flying classrooms for minimal environmental impact. The complex is to operate as an educational machine, providing the structure to support multiple programs, and a dynamic, kinetic architecture that inspires awareness and innovation for young environmental designers, “Learning through motion and arising the activist part of the student.

LIVE WORK PLAY

Free forms constitute one of the major trends within contemporary architecture.

In its earlier days a particularly important figure was the design approach based on digital reconstruction of physical models, resulting in shapes which are not too far away from developable surfaces and thus ideally suited for his preferred characteristic metal cladding. Nowadays we see an increasing number of landmark buildings involving geometrically complex freeform skins and structures.
