When it comes to parasitic architecture, it is composed with two major structures; Host and a parasite. Lebbeus Woods say, “Architecture is stable and static to give the impression that things are under control.” (Lebbeus Wood “Storm and the Fall”) B structure functions as hard, static structure that’s controlled, on the other hand, The parasitic structure functions as soft and active structure containing unpredictable nature; Trajectory. In addition, O. M Unger says Formal architecture and the unpredictable adaptation cannot live without each other. In fact, their coexistence is a mutualism. From “Crossbowmen in Wohnungsbau” (Shapes in housing).

Hybrid model slide to access and break, shear to track light and time. As we walk into the narrow threshold opening, we experience spatial contrast. The “mass” above us emphasizes the experience in space. Mass gets filled with light when light hits the mass in a certain angle through it’s opening. Then the light pours down to our body. As our body moves through the dominant model, we see breaking of light, due to the parasite. Shadow and light hit our body as we move through the space; Each hour each day the light and shadow are projected differently. Spaces above contain volumetric characteristics, in that it encloses light to provide us with spatial experience under the volumetric mass. Light is collected from the mass projects through the threshold and projected down into our body. As we continue to travel into the space; we see a parasite protecting us and breaking our view. Parasite seems to act as a veil. When we turn as we approach the exit, the threshold created by the static structure and the parasite, bring in broken shadows.

Model is embedded as it slides down into the ground according to subdivision and aggregatoin of components.

B model is subdivided to slide out components, creating accessable space between components. A model is to break light and track time.

Shadows casted by A model track light. As our body experience the controling of light, we feel more protected.

Statement This Project involves in analyzing the contextual geometry. Specifically, the site was one of Pratt Town houses. Unlike previous design project which did not deal with the idea of context, this project introduces the idea of context but still heavly focuses on geometrical apspects in design. Thus creating space was more regulated through displacement of geometry and relationship. In this project I specifically investigate in negative space or space that is displaced.

Through the abstraction of the facade of the town house, I’ve discovered a specific space that attracted me; the negative space. Through this abstraction, I’ve found displaced space facinating. In design Approach A abstraction drawing of the facade became my Design approach A. I picked one specific Section and analyzed its geometry and applied three dimensionality to it. In design Approach B, I’ve took the drawing and extracted the rules I used which was rotate, break, shear. Accordinly for the Hybird, I took the geometry and the organization of components from Design Approach A and applied the rules I’ve extracted from design approach.

Approach A

Vertical lines are extracted from the facade of the town house and extended towards the end of the bounding box.

Grid extracted from the facade is divided according to the elements of the facade. For exaple top large section indicates the area of the roof.

Horizontal lines are extracted from the facade of the town house and extended towards the end of the bounding box.

Grid breaks individually and shears towards alternating directions. The range of displacement is defined through constantlt alternating numerical value.

22

From the facade of the Townhouse, Geometry of the window is abstracted to create a continuous grid. From a formal grid, constant four point geometris are broken, rotated and sheared across the grid.

Field of different geometies create a diverse set of spaces and thus can be sorted in to different categories of spaces. Differnt shades represent different spaces, such positive and negative.

Approach B

Section of a grid from the facade extraction drawing is selected. From one specific cell, geometric aggregation is applied throughout the model. Cell breaks, opens up and down to form a space inside of the two diverginh planes. This process is then repeated inside of the context reacting to the boundaries. Altough horizontal distribution of the geometries was fluid,vertical extention was limiting.

The structure is seperated according to the use of occupants. Section represents three major space; Occupant A, B and the shared space. Diagrams on the bottom of the page represents the design process of the structure.

This project investigates in misregistration and it’s spatial characteristics. Main focus was to experiment with new spaces created from misregistration; Spatial exploration from a singular component to multiple components. Excitment came along when regular rule set led to creation of spatial misfit, which opened up diverse possibilities of space.

Adolf Loos’s Villa muller is an extraordinary architecture designed through studies of volumes. The architecture is difficult to study through plans and elevations due to it’s dynamic spatial conditions. This Final drawing explores the idea of perception, volumentric deisign method, geometry and intrepretation through it’s own extensive language.

Film, art, architecture often engages in advancing technologies. As a participant and a proponent of modern world, it seems inevitable to start a conversation over diverse human artifacts. Among them, application and social content is selected and challanged. This project explores the possibilities of future world; Often grotesque and horrifying, it’s a representation that disparages the vastly expanding social network.

Experiment

77

Geometry is a language when it comes to design; a gesture. This experiment focuses on creating an object that directly engages with the subject. From a rectangular box, point is selected and pulled linearly along the surface, creating a threshold. Then the interior surfaces inflate towards the exterior surfaces and form a sinuous geometry pulling one in to the object.
