The idea begins from collage of greenness and working space. In order to create a leisure atmosphere, my first collage looks into the mixing views while people stepping outside and inside one office. Traditional boundary between greenness and working space are blurred by reaching out to each other. Flowers and trees can be touched inside the office, meanwhile, some pieces of office furniture reach out to the yard. Then the expanded idea looks into the feeling of walking through series of such spaces in larger scale – between rooms and yards. The greeness and the working areas are blurred together in a pleasure space sequence, which can also satisfy the program.
Thus the question is, what method can we use to create such an order in architectural language? The distribution of green and gray space, the boundary between them became my research theme.
Typically, different programs have their different capability and volume. The density of walls and people can describe such characteristics. By introducing the concept of “the density of greenness”, the ideal mixing of office and park can be evaluated in various programs. Meanwhile, the property of each program also means the shape of the building. Those private offices and meeting rooms are arranged together into the slim, long space like a bar. Those public office, or labs with condensed working cells, are flat and fat like a pie in shape.
If the bar and pie spaces combined together, they can divide the space in flexible ways. Their intersection might create chances for the ideal mixing of greenness and indoor working space. In this case, the collages in the beginning can be realized in those intersections.
The third collage became the concept. The shape, the density of greenness and partition walls, as well as the division of office and park are illustrated in an order, which can create idea scenes with mixture of working space and park in first two collages. And the design follows the aim to find architectural language for this concept.
Those programs are piled up in a way to create ideal space effects between floors in terms of void, view and function. By using physical models to test the effects, I recorded each choice from 2nd floor to the top in this diagram.
The outcome show two features naturally.
1) the circulation of the whole building. The orange line is regular fast escalator from bottom to top. The red curve is the leisure transportation by open stairs. And the red areas are those “intersection yards” between floors.
2) the greenness distribution of the building. Generally, the greenness density is higher in those upper layers, which is for private- based company. What’s more, in each layers between the bars and their outside box, the boundary between green and grey extends out / permeate into the wall, creating interesting feelings for each users.
