PROJECT+DESCRIPTION

ART PLACE
===THE GOAL OF ART PLACE COMPLEX IS TO SUGGEST GREATER AWARENESS IN DEVELOPING URBAN DESIGN AMENITIES AND A SPACE BETTER SUITED TO PUBLIC USE. IT IS TO FURTHER THE POTENTIAL FOR A PUBLIC REALM, BY ESTABLISHING A PLACE WITH PROGRAMMATIC DIVERSITY, ENSURING ACTIVITY, AND A PLACE OF DESTINATION FOR MANY USERS.===

TO MANEUVER AN ESSENTIAL LIFE ELEMENT IN A SCULPTURAL FORM THAT BECOMES AN EXTRUSION FROM THE GROUND.
-MARKET SQUARE, AND ITS SURROUNDINGS, HAVE MINIMAL WATER FEATURES. I WANTED TO ENHANCE THESE WATER FEATURES AND MAKE IT ART PLACE. THE PROGRAM WILL SIT INSIDE THREE WATER WALLS AND PROTRUDE OUTWARD TO CREATE AN ORTHOGONAL ELEVATION, WHILE CONTAINING SOME AREAS THAT BECOME A FORM OF SCULPTURE FROM INSIDE THE WALLS OF WATER. WATER IS OF EXTREME IMPORTANCE TO SOCIETY. BY SHOWCASING WATER, IN AN URBAN DESIGN IDEOLOGY, IT WILL ENHANCE THE IMPORTANCE OF THIS ESSENTIAL LIFE ELEMENT.

ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN
===WATER WILL NOT ONLY BECOME A SCULPTURAL ELEMENT, BUT WILL ALSO ALLOW FOR COOLER TEMPERATURES IN THE EXTERIOR ZONES OF ART PLACE. WATER WILL ALSO SERVE AS A METHOD OF DIFFUSING LIGHT INTO IMMEDIATE AREAS THAT ARE AGAINST GLASS.===
