Design Development - Hybrid into Concept Drawings After creating a hybrid model, how can I come up with a concept that develops from my hybrid model? After doing my hybrid models, I went into sketching a few design ideas for my buildings. I've decided that the best approach would be to combine the restaurant with my culinary school so that the restaurant and culinary school blends together as the market comes and introduces that two other buildings in one continuous program. My first iteration sketch, I was trying to figure out landscape as well as program spaces. I felt that things can be switches a big and made to blend better than it originally was in my sketch. I realized that I didn't stay with the organic and rigidness of my concept so I went back and created another set of drawings to try and represent my idea even better. Iteration One After looking at different culinary pieces that make a restaurant and a culinary school complete; I made this sket...

Concept Development - Hybrid Model Combining the original nine models and taking just three to make a hybrid model. After taking the nine models, three each based on a collage; I've decided that through those nine I chose the following three for a reason. Let me explain. Site Impression: I chose the second one out of the three due to the reason that I wanted to represent the rigidness of the three different points of site. From landscape to building, and past to new. I felt that the second one could potentially help with creating something organic but still maintaining the rigidness of a potential structure. Strand: The first concept model out of the three was best fitting because it represents trying to enclose something important but in order to unravel that information one must go through one of the ends to reach the next and find yourself better than you were at point B from point A. Program: Program was represented by information being kept inside and...

Concept Development - Concept Models Based on collages how can I design concept models to represent each collage in its own way. Diving into concept models were a big of a struggle. Originally starting out and doing figuring out what can represent my collages through creative expression and getting the idea of structure based on my site. Collage 1 - Site Impression my site gives off an impression of constant amounts of people walking and soaking in information about their surroundings. The culture in my site is extremely seen, from different races, to different tastes of food, the site is united by everyone which makes my site a thriving location for more of its culture to be brought more to life and be more known to accommodate other cultures. Through that mindset these models represent connection between three points. Collage 2 - Strand Strand has a lot of different interpretations to define what it actually means. In my mind, I view strand as entering one...

Design Development - Collages  (Impression, Strand, & Program) How can I develop collages that have images that inspire, show different outlines, scales, details and materials, and blend all into one composition?    What is a collage?  A collage is a piece of art made by sticking various different materials such as photographs and pieces of paper or fabric onto a backing. That is what drives a design in my opinion. To think and artistically create something based on different words to help gather both information and design ideas for something much bigger. With that being said, we were asked to create three different collages that will ultimately help our design development. For each collage it had a specific theme to it. The first being "Site Impression", the second being "Strand" and lastly the third being "Program." Site Impression The first, Site impression was a collage where I placed images that made me think of how the site...

Bubble and Matrix Adjacency Diagrams After gathering information, how does that develop into the programs necessary for my typologies? Now that we've dove into our analysis, and what typologies would be best suited for my site; now it's time to think of all the spaces and programs and how it correlates together. Our first diagram illustrates the importance of having all three typologies together and how well they can be used together. In terms on where it would be located is still to be determined but with analyzing important spaces and non important spaces will better give an understanding to the overall project. Now I start to separate the typologies as individuals to really go in depth with the diagrams. For my first one I have the Market typology. With this I figure out what is adjacent, nearby, not related and not adjacent at all with all the proposed programs. With that being said I can get a sense on the possibilities for design as well. For the...

Building Typologies - Space Organization After analyzing the three different typologies, can we take it a step further and go more in depth with the projects? Taking all three projects and breaking down the typologies, and their functions; how can I show you how the spaces are organized? with these diagrams I hope to give you an insight to understand the project even further and give you an idea at how spaces are laid out to make the most sense.   Mercado Roma - Market      Institute for the Culinary Arts - Culinary School      Cheering Restaurant - Hospitality  

Building Typologies Analysis How do we further analyze projects to help achieve a better understanding to what is necessary for my project. Now that we have an understanding to what I want to design on Anchorage Plaza, the next phase of analysis is learning more information about other sites and projects. In this case I decided to pick out three different projects. Each one of them signifies one specific building typology so that it can give a better insight at how I can incorporate all three typologies into my design further along the way. With that, let me show you what I've analyzed and help you understand as well how I broke down these projects. First Project - Typology (Outdoor/Hospitality) - Mercado Roma Second Project - Typology (Educational) - Institute for the Culinary Arts Third Project - Typology (Hospitality) - Cheering Restaurant
