(M.O.V.E)MENT

The title of this project stands for “Modes of Operation for a Ventilated Environment”. It focuses on a land and sea relationship that would allow the building to interact with the site through extending the already existing 22-mile bike path into the inside of the building. A series of intersecting masses that formed vertical circulation were used in order to explore the relationship between mass and void. The voids and apertures going into the project play the role of not disrupting the wind that is coming from the North and West into the Marina, and furthermore providing ventilation for the inside of the building. Through this, different forms of movement are created. The movement of the wind and bike path focuses primarily on a horizontal orientation, while the movement of the bike path and the bridges within the building are distributed vertically. Then the people moving inside the building move both horizontally and vertically. The wind apertures are placed in more of the public areas so that they provide a bigger distribution of air in correspondence to the number of people populating the area and making sure it adapts to the new norms in today’s society in regards to COVID-19.
DIRTY MAP
(M.O.V.E)MENT initially derived from the creation of this dirty map and section. The dirty map served as site research and focused on surrounding cities, but most importantly on the 22-mile bike path that connects the neighboring cities to the site. The dirty map and section begin to form ideas of how the project can become incorporated into the site and the site into the building, rather than just plopping a building onto the site. The map enhances a series of axis with the center point being the site. Each axis represents a specific set of information that was researched and analyzed, and that affects the site both now and in the future.
