Conceptual Sketches Flow
Conceptual Development
During the conception of project Creation of committees,associations,meetings between the various participations like local peoples students,kids,housewifes,architects designer etc. -Workshops -Group of volunteer poeples. Dialogue and collective participations.
I was looking for a complex but yet interrelated relationship for my project.
This idea came from "cave form" which gives me narrow private spaces that we can create easily open studios and activity areas.
Structural Process
1-Inner Wood Cover
2-Steel Frame
3-Self Healing Concrete
4-Insulation
5-EarthGrass
Plans and Sections 1/200 Teaching&Learning Studios
By combining the corners of the wall and floor joints with the lowest usage rate as structures, I obtained seating areas.
I considered the ceiling glass application in terms of getting sunlight. I determined the surfaces hit by the light as reflective and light colored in reaching different parts of the room.
Added ramp in and out to all studios in order to be accessible for people with disabilities. I created shelves and cabinet spaces inside the curved woods on the walls.
I set all the materials I can provide as structures that can move. Thanks to their wheels, they will be able to be taken anywhere, if necessary.
Temporary Exhibition Area and Underground Amphi for varius activities
Music and Art Studios also avaliable with washrooms and storage.
Access to groundwater source
Common Kitchen for to share cooking experiance and share of food.
Interior Planting- Atrium
TL Studios
This studio where the peoples will learn how to built these units like a technical rooms.
I had chosen the library place in front of the lake which lake provide silence. Is a best choice for placing the library.
While cretaitng such a cave shaped units I have the connections which behave like bridge, Tunnel, Canopy, sitting places etc.
