This is looking better. For what it's worth, the shark tank arm still more than ever, wants to be up in the air. Take an opportunity to call it a HUGE cantilever or come up with an elegant support system, but get people under there. Think about an interior/exterior viewing opportunity for the tank at the end. Look at the Sea World Shark Encounter where one walks through a lexan tube for the experience after observing the animals as a regular "outside of the tank spectator."
ReplyDeleteThere is something bothersome about your sections. The spaces inside are too regimented and orthogonal. with the sensuous, organic forms on the outside, your interior needs to follow the same language. imagine the juxtaposition of fomral languages if you were to enter the space yourself...
It is hard to "read" your sections. A few fast things you should do: Give reference axis in the plan of where the sections take place. Add small labels with the program for each space or create a color coded sectional diagram with the program for each area. Add silhouettes for scale ! This is very important so we understand double height spaces and relationships.
ReplyDeleteIt would be helpful if you start also creating perspective sectional cuts.
Yes, you should think about cantilevering the "tail" so you create a equally important experience for the visitor outside the building. Jump right away to the design of the landscape. The design of your interior experience should connect smoothly and be a continuation of exterior paths. An overall site plan with circulation paths and key stasis points that relate to your building, the particular site views and the city should be elaborated at the same time you resolve the building plans.
You are in a good direction, looking forward to the next steps!
