IN A WORLD INCREASINGLY STRAINED BY OVERPOPULATION , THIS PROJECT ENVISIONS A FUTURE WHERE HUMANITY EXPANDS INTO THE OCEAN. IT EXPLORES THE IDEA OF CONTINUOUS GROWTH AND CHALLENGES TRADTIIONAL PERCEPTIONS OF LIVING SPACE BY PROPOSING ADAPTABLE, WATER-BASED SETTLEMENTS . POWERED BY RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES AND UTILIZING MODULAR CONSTRUCTION SYSTEMS, THE COMMUNITY CAN EXPAND ORGANICALLY WHILE RESPONDING TO THE CHANGING NEEDS OF ITS HABITANTS.

CAYCE, SC, ART CENTER DESIGN

THIS PROJECT AIMS TO ENHANCE THE CULTURAL SCENE IN THE CAYCE SOUTH CAROLINA ARTS DISTRICT, INSPIRED BY THE AIR AND SPACE MUSEUM IN WASHINGTON, D.C. THE ARTS CENTER WILL SERVE AS A LIVELY HUB WITH ROTATING EXHIBITS, PERFORMANCE AREAS, INTERACTIVE CLASSROOMS, CREATIVE STUDIOS, AND AN OUTDOOR AMPHITHEATER. USING WOOD FOR CONSTRUCTION AND A STRIKING GABION WALL MADE OF LOCAL GRANITE , THE DESIGN FOCUSES ON THE ENVIRONMENTAL HARMONY AND VISUAL APPEAL. THE CAREFUL ATTENTION TO SPACE, LIGHT, AND SHADOWS CREATES AN INVITING ATMOSPHERE THAT ENCOURAGES ARTISTIC EXPLORATION. OVERALL, THIS PROJECT SEEKS TO BUILD A WELCOMING PLACE FOR COMMUNITY CONNECTION AND CULTURAL ACTIVITIES , LEAVING A LASTING IMPACT ON THE CAYCE ARTS DISTRICT.

When finding inspiration for my concep. I looked back to the site relationship diagram of the Air and Space Museum in Washington D.C From there, I flattened the image and extruded two distinct shape types, followed by repositioning the massing blocks to develop a cohesive final design.

MID-RISE NEW YORK OFFICE BUILDING DESIGN

PARTNERS WITH CATALINA GARCIA

FOR OUR MID-RISE BUILDING, WE INCORPORATED SUSTAINABILITY AND FLUID DESIGN WATER IS A KEY SUSTAINABLE FEATURE, ENHANCING THE SENSORY EXPERIENCE FOR OCCUPANTS. BY INCLUDING WATER FEATURES, WE AIM TO REDUCE STRESS AND IMPROVE WELL-BEING, CREATING A SPACE THAT FEELS LESS LIKE A TRADITIONAL WORKPLACE . OUR WATER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM CAPTURES, FILTERS, STORES, AND DISTRIBUTES WATER FOR FEATURES LIKE THE WATER WALL FACING THE HIGH LINE, SHOWERS, SINKS, AND TOILETS . ADDITIONALLY, THE BUILDING’S DESIGN REFLECTS WATER’S FLUIDITY THROUGH CURVED SHAPES, AVOIDING STRAIGHT LINES TO SYMBOLIZE MOVEMENT. THIS APPROACH ENHANCES BOTH THE VISUAL AND SENSORY EXPERIENCE WHILE PROMOTING SUSTAINABILITY.
