Project 2: 200 word introduction

Jigsaw Puzzle and the Urban carpet. These are the 2 concepts that are conveyed through this model of an office building. The idea of incorporating these ideas into my building having 1 idea being emphasised on the exterior while the other one on the interior. The concept jigsaw puzzle is expressed through the many series of square blocks shown from the exterior of the building. These blocks are grouped up with pairs of iterations which is defined by their different materials. Each iteration has a different purpose with the building; e.g. retail, office, residential spaces. But it is how these pairs of iterations lock to one another thus creating a jigsaw. This creates new spaces and views when connected or separated. As for the urban carpet concept, its focus was on the interior and its placement of its stairs. I tried to place the stairs in a style where it will force an individual to travel in a upwards circular fashion of the building, creating a better experience of discovering the building.
