Programmatic STRUCTURE _ CALA

2015 Fall   Los Angeles, CA

Instructor: Jennifer Siegal

One main concept of this project is to explore the diagrid structure and shading facade system. The structure of this project has two systems--the outside system is exclusive and rational whereas the inside system is inclusive and organic, providing semi-public space. The core also works as public circulation core that connects differents the programs together. The skin system is modular shading panels--aluminum on the outside yet has a gradient of yellow in the inside. The shading degree and color distribution of the skin system is depend on the program distribution.
