In the precedent parti model, there was simply a triangular structure. From this simple triangle, the architects chose to slope the form upwards. Essentially the structure is a sloped triangular viewing platform that is integrated with the environment. In my own parti, I decided to implement a few of the same concepts into my design process. I decided to keep the theme of the tilted triangle, but at the same time I wanted to make it my own design rather than copying the precedent I chose.
My precedent was the Brooklyn Bridge Park Pier 6 Viewing Platform from Bjarke Ingels Group Architects. The firm did a great job at making sure the viewing platform had many different programs or uses. The structure is connected to the landscape, provides lots of usable space, and provides space for small or large events. These are just a few ideas that I want to incorporate into my design. Overall, this parti really stuck out to me because of its simple shape and concept yet bold look.
In my own parti I wanted to take several elements from BIG architects viewing platform, while introducing my own twist on the project. I wanted my project to be simple, while giving off a bold statement from the streets and nearby neighborhoods. It was somewhat difficult to integrate this precedent into the site because I had to incorporate the passageway. I think I connected the structure of my building into the landscape just like BIG did, which is something I really wanted to achieve. I also wanted to keep the same sloping triangular form they had in their project. This sloping triangular figure doesn’t always exactly translate into my design, but the concept is always present. Overall, my design has space for a community center, amphitheater, and many other programs.
