What if college student residences where erected on top of Volos’s public spaces ? This is what I tried to do in my Architecture Thesis ! I designed three types of buildings. The POINT, which is a tower, that is erected on top of a roundabout. The LINE, which is a building that covers a pedestrian route. And the PLANE, which is a building that hovers above a plaza with a street market. The idea is that public space should invade into the buildings, surrounding the student residences. This way, building on top of a public space, becomes the means for the vertical multiplication of this public space. Every building, consists of three types of spaces. The private rooms, that belong to the college students. The communal rooms, that include, a kitchen, a living room and a dinning area and also belong to the students. There is one such room for every eight private rooms. And the public space that surrounds the building’s closed spaces and is equipped with concrete benches and tables. Every citizen can sit, talk, grill, order food and eat here. I relied on my illustrations, both for the analysis of each public space’s characteristics and for the presentation of the designed buildings.
- This was my proposal for the MUSEUM OF EMOTIONS #4 architecture competition. - It is a cube that consists of two spaces, which are divided by a huge inclined wall. One of the spaces, evokes happy feelings through colorful semitransparent surfaces, while the other space, evokes bad feelings through dark and semitransparent surfaces. - Visitors may move between the two spaces, vertically and horizontally on inclined ramps, choosing whichever path and transition between feelings they want. - The context of this building is the city of Athens. - I did 2d and 3d drawings in Rhino and the illustration in Sketchbook pro. - I drew and illustrated everything myself as always.
