TEAMWORK MAKES THE DREAM WORK

How to Iterate

All,

Since I know that coming up with iterations is challenging, here’s a suggestion:

  1. Choose an architectural problem that your building needs to solve, such as:
    • How does the building negotiate the slope?
    • How can I make the building a link for the public between the sidewalk inland and the walk along the water?
    • How do I maximize the view to the water, while minimize the view of the power plant on the other shore?
    • How can I make this building as flexible as possible, both day-to-day but also for the future?
    • How do I reconcile public space, community space, and service spaces?
  2. Make a form iteration that solves this problem, and then think about how the program might be arranged within it.
  3. Repeat.

Remember, you have a lot fewer size restrictions this time, so be bold.

I would rather that you come up with a proposal that doesn’t quite meet the restrictions than a physical embodiment of the restrictions – we can work together and make a good proposal fit.
