Mecca Gate Design 4 - Mixed Use

Location : Mecca ST, Amman

Supervised by Dr Wael

Designing a mixed-use building in Mecca Street, one of the busiest streets for people to go shopping, all the commercial buildings there are typical, what I am trying to do in this project is to attract people to the building to make it uniqe among all other commercial buildings. This building contains subtractions which make a sense of light in Day and open to the sky in the night, and natural lighting, in addition offering open places for youth and shoppers in the third level with view on Mecca Street to set in and a path that goes through our building that connects the residential area with the commercial area.

This building is going from public to private going from down to up, which there are offices on the last floor.

Concept

commercial building that contains different functions and open spaces on a high level to attract youth people and locals, making void through our building to make it more ventilated and provided with natural light and interior vegetation.

Morphology

Splitting the Main Mass into Platforms which we can do Subtraction in each one Alone.

Subtraction For Ventilation and to let sun in and to keep the Opening Ratio Fixed Ratio.

It is integrating as much greenery into the building to attract people. design in a way that could make the uses of the building Integrated with the community and introverted inside the building to Make open Community Spaces Using steps, ramps, and seating areas that could function in multiple ways. designing the entrances to have Mystery and playing with light for developing feelings while moving in the building.

Full exploitation of the land area

Make The Platforms Connected at some Point in the Upper Levels To Keep the Circulation Net And Clean without Bridges.
