1. David Adjaye - Buildings are deeply emotive structures which form our psyche. 2. David Adjaye - The physical craft of construction and the narrative behind the craft of making buildings 3. David Adjaye - Instead of seeing a work as a string of projects, we must assemble it as a single body, a sphere. 4. Teodoro González de León - The purpose of the work is imperative opposed to a void design, waiting to be contemplated. 5. Teodoro González de León - The number one goal of architecture is to create useful objects. These objects must be experienced but must also move us at the same time. 6. Teodoro González de León - The contrast between forms that give permanence and solidity and lightness and novelty.

Final Rendered Light Rail Stop and Concepts

Concept 1: My first concept is inspired by architect Teodoro González de León, who was interested in the contrast between solidity and permanence against lightness and novelty. Within my light rail stop I explore both the juxtaposition and interrelation of these aspects. The prevalent incorporation of horizontal beams throughout the stop run parallel to the light rail carriages, supporting them and giving them strength as they emulate their movement. As this aspect gives the forms of my structure strength, it also has a sleek and light character coupled with the consistent use of metal textures. Concept 2: My second concept is inspired by David Adjaye, as he stresses the importance of building a structure as a single form, as opposed to individual aspects thrown together. My spaces flow onto each other as they move up and around both the roads and light rail tracks. As seen in the two following images, the light rail stop descends under ground, below the first ro...

Hence, I want to make this aspect the theme of my building and explore how it can be the basis of a form. Thesis created: The essence of innovative architecture is to cohesively integrate forms with themselves and the environment around it. Concepts of the Building My building flows seamlessly around the space in which it sits in a way that lets it encapsulate the square house. Its design is highly organic with odd and random shapes. In this sense the building appears as an object from outer space. Despite this, I have taken inspiration from Frank Gehry's UTS building and other architecture with his windows. The windows that I have placed manage to ground the structure back to reality, encapsulating what I beli...
