SITE ANALYSIS FACADE ANALYSIS PROGRAMMING

Comments:

Ignacio:
How do we move from this to a more interesting and conceptual form?
Ralph Knowles: Light an conceptual forms
Katie:
Massing needs more influence from research and into diagrammatic forms.
How to bring our client along and show what steps we made to get to where you are?
Ignacio:
Analysis is too complex and needs to show in the animations.
How do we move from the extrusion to more interest
Show hypothesis and requirements, show iterations and where we’ve come from.
Show parameters and hypotheses and don’t get too into the engineering if you lose the architectural qualities
Katie:
Perspective and gestures need to show in scales and human form. Don’t get caught in a bird’s eye view. Use the human scale.
Please collaborate both online and with personal aspects.
Ignacio:
How do incorporate individual expertise in the working project, who gets a say in what and how do we collaborate between ideas?
Katie:
Being able to focus and show how we are applying knowledge is important, but also building off of each other.
Consider what we have learned, and what we think is important

Philip:
How do we show these goals throughout the presentation?
Katie:
Don’t be afraid to just come out and say it, even if it’s literal bullet points throughout the show.
Make purpose less rigid, have fun with it.

Other Notes:

Spaces in the post-covid world have new meanings and are required to perform differently than before. How do they make you feel? What can they do to improve.

The atrium and central space of the new wing has the option to be better than the abilities of the original space. How can we create a new front door that is even more interesting than now, and make it as much of a landmark / signature of the university as possible.

Show intermediate steps between diagrammatic expression and the massing form. Engage with audience to bridge the cap and show diagrammatic expression of shapes in the built environment.

Allen to central campus
Incorporating the different styles of light and how we are utilizing the underused parking spaces.
Social interaction and how Allen hopes to reconnect to students after the Pandemic.
Not alienating friendly, historic and beautiful, but shouldn’t be discounted for infrastructural challenges.
Expanding into Friendly would be as costly as creating a new building adjacent.
