Site Analysis
Design Intent
The intent of my design is to create small pockets for people and not limiting them to specific program but letting people adapt it according to their convenience and experience of trees. The idea is to make semi-open spaces for small groups of people to gather around and the curved walls making it more inviting. The design looks like a corroding space where the pockets are formed. The form uses curved wall with distinct heights.
Design Development & Detailing
The idea of 'line meeting a curve' and creating small pockets. Pockets can be adapted by the people according to their needs like, small meetings can be held, temporary food stalls can be installed, children can have group study. The pockets are created around the trees existing on site which provides natural shade, making it comfortable to spend more time there, so tired people can also take rest there in the shade. These pockets are created along a pathway which connects two parallel lanes making it convenient for the people passing by.
