House in the plum groove
Seperate Reduce Unfold
1) Analysis SANAA’s work in drawing.2) Design a Suitcase demonstrating design intent of SANAA.
TASK:
APPROACH: 1) Drawing as transformational act: reduce, translate, discover and isolate information. 2) Versatility of space created by countless paths of folding the suitcase’s wall into interior.

GLASS FOR ARTIST
TASK: Remix an artist’s cooperative and integrate the building’s urban site -- Boston city hall plaza.
APPROACH: Explore various combiantions of transparent and reflective glass, that allows viewing simultaneously in(the building) and around (the site). Visually extends public outdoor space as part of the architecture. Building as a metaphor that artists are to see at different angles, reflect on it and to engage the public.
