WITHDRAWN Mix Use Building

Windows and Texture:The window used as a benchmark to inform the production of contemporary architectural form in relationship to context. Over the last 30 years architecture has elaborated few modes of pro-ducing contextualism that were profoundly ef-fective and had never been seen in the history of architecture before. One that we can call global contextualism,how to relate to other buildings without relyingon proximity and similarity. Such operation can be considered the first step to-wards nowadays iconicity (iconic forms that are geographically distant from each other become readable as self-similar because of globalization,-media and economy). Our architectural tabloids are full of examples of this kind of formal opera-tions that are eventuallypart of a contemporary way to disseminate culture through images.

Mixed-Use Program: The building is located in downtown Santa Mon-ica at 4th Street and Arizona Avenue. The mixed use program consists of retail, residential, hotel, cultural, office space and parking. Santa Monica is a small,densely populated city with a high level of pedestrian traffic. Therefore, the main moti-vation behind ourdesign was to create a building that would allow pedestrians easy access onto and throughout the site.Along the street level, pedestrians have access to retail and office structures. On top of the retail plinthare sever-al masses each containing a different piece of the mixed use program. In order to differentiate among the masses, each contains its own textur-ing, coloration and aperture system.

Windows Projection.

Material textures play a significant role in the privileging of the legibility of mass versus surface. The residential mass has a simple patterning and ordered layout of rectangular win-dows that allows for maximum interior space for apartments. Additionally, the windows extrude through the massing in two directions: the front and side. In contrast, the office textu ring. The program of an office allows for more flexibility in the layout of the interior space. On the exterior of the building, there is a combination of a mesh and square windows which allow for ample light to be emitted into the space. Sev-eral of the square windows along the sides and top of the massing were extruded through the building to create walls

for dynamic interior spaces. The hotel has the most compli-cated apertures and texturing. While the overall geometry of the mass is quite simple, the undulating window patterning visually abstracts the faade of the building. Smaller windows indicate where hotel rooms exist and the larger windows generated from the window extrusion indicate, public lob-bies and interior spaces. Additionally, the overlaid blue mesh covering one of the corners of the building not only func-tions as an artistic element, but acts as a shading element for the windows underneath. As the blue mesh creeps down the side of the hotel building, visually merging the cultural space with the hotel. The windows get larger towards the bottom of the mass to indicate the public cultural space.

Involuted Figures and Black Holes

One of the fundamental things architecture does is characterize the threshold between exterior and interior. In this, it must take an ontological position with regards to the state of existence of outside and inside, and the degree to which they might be illusions. A key part of this work is the explo-ration of fake and real shadows, reflections, and halos, in terms of how they may ema-nate from obejcts and deep involutions and then be reifi ed into physical features. These features may exist as surface effects, such as changes of material or sheen, or they may be used to transform the three-dimensonal mass more aggressively.

The goal will be to create flattening, depth, or obscuring effects that heighten the mys-tery and irresolution of the building object. Rendering is not used to represend fi nished designs or produce special effects or orther phenomena,but rather as a tool to study possible confi gurations and patterns of lightness and darkness in service of noume-na, or the thing-in-itself. At stake, ultimately, is the status of objects, their qualities, and our lack of access to them as they qithdraw

into their dark interiors. Qualities, for us, will begin to slip off objects, making them more abstract and ineffable.

This marks a turn away from universally ar-ticulating object and surfaces in ultra-high fi delity, a disciplinary interest of the 2010s (sometimes referred to as the neo-Baroque) which now seems exhausted. While con-temporary object-oriented philosophy may offer us windows into this problem, it will be important for us to operate within the discipline of architecture. We must gener-ate our own lexicon and basis for success and failure, and no doubt invent new forms of subjectivity, without which architecture cannot exist.

( Design, Development, and Documentation)

s um a i Focusing on construction systems, building technol-ogy, the use of materials, and system integration. The course comprises a review of basic construction methods, analysis of building codes including occupancy and life-safety issues, the design of structural and mechanical systems, and the basic prin-ciples of sustainable design. Studio projects from the previous semester are devel-oped, focusing on the detailed design of a zone of the build-

ing in terms of the resolution of its structural system and of a building envelope using three-dimensional modeling as well as drafting. Drawings at various scales are produced to introduce the language and standards of details, wall sections, and overall building representations, culminating in a comprehensive package of drawings.

Surfaces to Nested Volumes(Advanced modeling, Animations and Skeletons)

Introducing the tools of necessary to generate masses from surfaces. asking to translate surfaces into volumes, which interlock among themselves creating a system of nested objects with the aim to generate interior spaces among the mass-es. In this experiment is focusing into the relationship between hard and smooth edge and the negotiation between the two, as they attempt to integrate both of these qualities into one system.The fi-

nal result resemble a 3d nested puzzle in which each independent mass shares faces with at least two others. The objects should be then coded using the texturing material to create a clear differentiation among the parts.

The Wave Faced Design Project is a translation of aesthetics of an architectural design into engineering .The envelope of the building is generated by repetition of 12 by 12 feet panels .Each panel consists of a punched window, located in the bot-tom right corner. There are multiple type of modular panels embedded in the fa-cade system. The presence of multiple types of panels is an approach to the issue of corner condition.The absence of a window within the corner panel covers up the struc-

tural columns supporting the buildings floor plates. Metal is a primary material used in construction of all the panels. Elements used in the assem-bly of the panels, are either welded or screwed. The gap between skin of the building and actual building structure emphasizes an importance of both parts, as well as the function of each.

The Nest Pedestrian Bridge

Project is located in Jed-dah, Saudi Arabia. The site of the project is a pedes-trian bridge. Project is an exploration of the network of existing structure and canopy addition. New struc-tural system supporting the canopy plugs into existing column system holding up the bridge.The shape of the canopy is generated by manipulation of flat surface. The final design outcome is a curvature platform making

the top of the new structur-al scheme. The roof surface is panelized by flat square panels, which vary in size based on its location. Each panel has a lifted up corner to create depth within the roof architecture. The project emphasizes the interaction between the design, engi-neering and the user.

BULgINg AND gROOvY

Columns are pre-eminent architectural elements that demonstrate the tension between the symbol-ic and indexical: looking like a structural support vs. performing as one. This tension can be tracked by how a column meets the ground and how it meets a roof or floor above. The classical orders articulates this into a tripartite diagram: base, col-umn, capital. Moreover, the image of this column is one that addresses issues of strength and stability, reinforced by the secondary effects of entasis and fluting. Entasis is used for either optical correc-tion or enhancing the illusion of weight and mass. Typically, we find entasis as a subtle bulging of the column at the base or somewhere in the mid-dle. Similarly, fluting provides a grain of grooves thatvisually reinforces the direction of support. An atypical case of entasis can be seen in the col-umns at the First Hera Temple at Paestum where the bulging effect is exaggerated at the base. In the Great Colonnade at Apamea in Syria, the fluting is spiraled thus producing an effect of a twisted column. Regardless of their origins or intentions, they are all aesthetic effects related to the mass-ing appearance of the column as a single unified element.How might fluting and entasis be re-imag-ined in the status of the column as a participant in a spatial field? This thesis elevates the secondary statusof entasis and fluting to a primary positionin the production of a spatial field.

A family of columns are produced that addresses three related issues: mass, parts, and interiority. The massing of the column is liberated from sym-bolizing stability, visual correctness (which privi-leges the human), and the illusory effects of force dependent on what is above. The parts of base,
