Academic Project, UC Berkeley
In this project, I designed an 8-story tall Performing Arts Auditorium for Contemporary Dance on a single lot in Oakland, CA (on the intersection of Telegraph Ave and 22nd S).
The building included concepts from the two earlier projects related to “shaping” site, “structuring” program and “forming” circulation. The auditorium shape is obtained through a "Boolean Intersection" operation of two shapes nested in the buildable envelope.
The remaining spaces is used for circulation and various programs (offices, a restaurant and dance studios for performance/rehearsals purposes).
