ARTS ACADEMY<br />

THE CONCEPT<br />

On the east and west side of the site,there was two streets, the one on the west had yearly events which made it a known<br />

street, on the other side, the eastern street was abandoned and dead, I wanted to both streets through my project which<br />

might create an opportunity to<br />

bring back the life to the street.<br />

Also, I wanted to optimize the use<br />

of the view and minimize the cut<br />

and fill chances, by building on<br />

mulitiple levels and creating an<br />

courtyard.<br />

create a enclosure by building walls<br />

around the site.<br />

accomodate the targeted<br />

audience.<br />

optimize the inner space as<br />

a public park.<br />

create entrances at multiple<br />

vivid nodes in the area.<br />

cut the walls to create significant<br />

entrances.<br />

adapt to the context by lowering the northern side to maximize view and lefting the<br />

southern side to create shade<br />
