MORE PROGRESS COMPUTER MODEL

This is a another progress model. There is still struggle on how to incorporate the cubes and the building in the same language. i kinda gave it a shot on letting both of the elements flow freely using each other. The cubes are all of different size and each of them either let the rib pierce through it or doesn't, where its does pierce there is a void cut to indicate that.

MORE PROGRESS!

This is a different attempt on how i integrate my building with the site and how the ribs of the building make little space for people to walk under/around and a part of the building is stretched out and folded many times to become seating and a outdoor movie theater. Since i wanted to stay true to the neighborhood i decided to shape the hotel as a box like all the other neighboring building around Red Hook Brooklyn.

PROGRESS MODEL

 This is a rendering showing how one would see the entrance of the building from bread street. The intention of this rendering is to attract and invite people to come see what this building is.

 I attempted to make a landscape in which my hotel rooms are wedged in. They are somewhat exposed to get natural light. the landscape also has pathways through my guest will get to their rooms.

This is a top view of my site and the red dashed lines show the circulation through the building and to the hotel rooms. The are still some aspects i still have to consider, the building still needs improvement.

The red color shows what i have added to my building and the reason for me adding the piece on the top is to give my audience a direction of which way to go. Towards the bottom i have put a outdoor screen where people can sit on the landscape at anytime and enjoy a movie.

REVISITED FLOOR PLAN DIAGRAM

 

The lobby is shift to the center. i did that because i wanted to have a focal point where all my guest could circulate the spaces without having to go through any other ones.

HYBRID MODEL

This is a hybrid model derived from my process. There is still debate on how the cubes(studios) would work on the site. Either its in the water or on the site and it has a double use like interior used for studio and outside used for theater.

RESUBMISSION OF PLAN AND SECTION DIAGRAM TO SCALE

SECTION DIAGRAM AND PLAN DIAGRAM

 

This is a section diagram of how i want my spaces to work. Each of them are specified by the floors and how much the height of each floor with be.

This is a floor plan diagram. I color coded them so its easier to tell the difference between the space and also by the sizes of the rectangles. the white spaces represent that they have a connection, also whats connected with what.

HYBRID MODEL WITH SITE 2 (NTS)

 

This is a process hybrid model not to scale. The bending of the material represents the flexibility of film and that part will somehow become a massing of my hotel/film studios. The cubes are isolated because i want all the film based program to be apart from the hotel but still have relevance. I will also incorporate green space and an outdoor movie theater somehow by wrapping or wedging over the cubes.

PROCESS MODELS

I am struggling to get models out of my emotions collage. But so far i have this model, which shows pealing and breaking of something.

These models above are derived from my programs collage. All of these models have a free and flexible flow to it. I related this flow to the film.

 

These models are derived from the "Edge" collage. All of these models stand on three point, which to me represent edges that hold up a structure.
