LANDSCAPE - a [ubiquitous] physical manifestation of temporal conditions that forms a dense interwoven fabric of connections & associations between perceptible “native” objects [fauna, flora, climate, etc] and mental projections [related to human activity / human based-dimension]

project descriptioninterdisciplinary studio // worked in collaboration with an architecture

student to create a “urban monastery” - a space that serves as a resource to the surrounding community, providing users full access to a catalog of books,

music, and movies, and fosters the continued production of new artwork.

SITE SECTION

Commercial use occupies half the site and continues along Sunset Blvd., connecting with the major commercial center one block further east. Residential use occupies the south-west corner of the site and encompasses the neighboring blocks. Situated at the intersection of these two uses, the site serves as a transitional space between the residential use sitting below Sunset and the commercial use elevated above.

MYRA ave. “SOUND SPECTRUM”

The existing topography and building locations on the site create a embedded “sound spectrum” that produces an unusual tension within the space with the high volume traffic activity on Sunset and Manzanita clashing against the relative calm found in the lower half of the site.

fi gure-ground analysis:This map demonstrates the existing “green” spaces that permeate through the properties on site clearly highlighting where the highest concen-tration of “green” space exists stressing the im-portance of the school property as the main open “green” space for the surrounding community.

This map is used to identify major intersections of interest as well as the major streets, creating a visual heirarchy by assigning each street a thicker lineweight to represent traffi c amount.

This map looked to highlight the relationships be-tween the varying land uses located on either side of the street [educational, commercial, residential]. The drawing was created by tracing over a satellite image of the site and clearly shows a disproporti-nate distribution of land use, splitting the site into 2 distinct “characters” (each character defi ned by the its major corresponding land use).
