Alumni Commons Surface Manipulation

Below is some of what was my midterm project for second year studio. It was a surface project of sorts at the Alumni Commons area of Pasadena City College. I studied the undulating flight modes of Starling flocks as an external frame of reference from which to pull characteristics that could be translated architecturally. This project took many different shapes over the course of the eight weeks that I worked it, and is still in a developmental phase here. The manipulation maximizes the programmatic spacial potential both on and underneath the surface as well as on the vertical aftermath, while maintaining the existing circulation.
