The Design
About Aero Grove Fonksyon Prensipal: Sant Kiltirèl Kominotè
Tèks Liv: Aero Grove se yon bilding kiltirèl ki chita nan yon espas vèt piblik nan Boston. Li eksplore kijan yon gwo achitekti ka entegre tèt li avèk imilite nan vil la, pandan l ap prezante fonksyon kiltirèl ak edikatif epi konsève libète ak flidite sit la. Espas ekspozisyon yo melanje ak eksperyans ki plonje ou nèt, epi yon platfòm nan dezyèm nivo an ankouraje dyalòg ak pratik. Fòm sikilè k ap koule li a ak ranp ki gen mouvman monte desann yo konekte moun, achitekti, lanati, ak vil la yon fason natirèl. Fasad bilding lan vin tounen yon twal pou limyè lajounen ak lonbraj. Li ofri eksperyans depi vi sou vil la jiska lakou entim yo.

- How to make the open space more active to provide diverse spaces to attract people to enjoy the design.
- Research
- Observe and interview users of the existing public space to understand how it is currently used. Analyze their activities not only to incorporate them into the design, but also to enhance the environment and introduce a wider variety of spaces.
- Inspiration
- When a building is introduced to a site, the architect has a responsibility to consider the original function of the space and its significance to users, the community, and the city. Designing in a highly frequented public green space calls for the building to enter the site with a humble presence, preserving as much of the original function as possible while creating new moments of interaction for both people and the urban environment.
- Project Duration
- Boston, United States
The design phase lasted 4 months. It is a concept design. - Operation Flow
- The design with its open green area provides different environments for the community to enjoy the public space: enjoying sunshine, staying under the shade of trees, and resting under the roof.
