Panel Contribution - Architectural Opportunities

As four architectural opportunities (minimum) were required to create a foundation for our full design development throughout the remaining of the semester, each group member provided one major opportunity that was determined through individual interests. My opportunity was that of vertical circulation. As it was to remain at a very conceptual level, I did not provide a full design but instead produced an explanatory diagram with a sketch to create visual support.



Description on panel: Vertical pedestrian circulation is developed to allow for easy transition between buildings at different floor levels. This is necessary due to singular function buildings resulting in public spaces at higher levels. Multi-level circulation also creates opportunities to demonstrate sustainability  on a social level by accommodating a larger pedestrian population with a multitude of areas for varying activities and functions.
