Studio 1B

Woodbury School of Architecture I Instructor: Natsuma Imai I Spring 2017

With a program generated out of a bar with dimension of 12-1/2” x 2-1/2” x 1-7/8”, a continuous system throughout various physical models was created and built with a gradient. Out of the different models, one was selected and copied several times in Rhino 5 software. and used in a stacking method to create a structure. Furthermore, the structure was digitally placed in an empty lot in Mariachi Plaza which is located in Boyle Heights. The structure is a library for the community surrounding Mariachi Plaza and has different levels which include a performance area, coffee shop, public areas for people to move thoughout the library, and private areas to read or study.
