EXPERIMENT TWO: TRAM STOP

WEEK 1:KOOLHAS X AALTO
5 PRISM AMALGAMATIONS




1.

"The stronger the identity, the more it imprisons, the more it resits expansion, intrepretation, renewal, contradiction."-Rem Koolhaas

2.
"Fragmentation used to reduce impact- divide the building into smaller pieces and arrange them so the building cannot be seen as a whole from any point of view" Rem Koolhaas



3.

"Where space was considered permanent it now feels transitory- on its way to becoming." Rem Koolhaas



AALTO


1.



"Create a dynamic between the building and it's natural surroundings." Alvaar Alto 

2. 



"Create a sense of warmth and humanity as opposed to sheer function." Alvaar Alto



3.

"Nothing is as dangerous in architecture as dealing with separate problems. If we split life into separate problems, we split the possibilities to make good building art." Alvaar Alto









Week 2- "Electroliquid Aggregation" 
PARALLEL PROJECTIONS

WEEK 3 


36 CUSTOM TEXTURES 



LIGHT------> DARK 








Light: This was used to signify the structures inplanted on the ground, for example the seating platform infront of the train. My intention was to make sure that the focus wasn't just on the waiting (seating) area of the station but the other technological/aspects of my design. 


Medium: My medium texture was incorporated into the middle structure of my design, I had chosen to do this in order to neutralize the juxtaposition of light and dark textures. 


Dark: I had used the dark texture for the exterior structure to highlight the main structure and frame. The texture gives the Aalto prism's an almost monolithic/stone feel.

CONCEPTUAL DIAGRAMMING: SUSTAINABILITY

(SUN AND WIND PROTECTION)

SUNLIGHT/WEATHER


     


-My light rail design may not receive optimal lighting throughout certain times of the day, however the exterior structure of the building is hollow and therefore the building's interior and bottom is illuminated by the sunlight.





Winter Insulation
"Create a dynamic between the building and it's natural surroundings." Alvaar Alto 
Through analysis and research , weather protection is frequently cited as a high priority. Protection from sun, rain and wind is essential. In terms of winter my tram stop may receive small amounts of light, passive and active solar heating were not options to keep the surrounding enviormnent comfortable. Therefore the building relies on a conventional heating system (based on the insulating roof)
