DESIGN STUDY 3
People rarely even attempt to reimagine spatial usage. To do so would mean conflict—conflict with others, with authority, or with the hierarchy. This conflict is not necessarily violent (though it could be—additional reason why people avoid reimagining spatial use). Perhaps a traditionally stationary program spills into a corridor, which is traditionally animated.
This exploration of heterarchical space superimposes three heterarchical systems over a hypothetical existing hierarchical system (i.e. a city block). Inspired by Bernard Tschumi’s Le Fresnoy Art Center, DESIGN STUDY 3 also seeks to decompose human expectations of exterior, interior, and circulation.
