Concept Design

Impression of The Site

This collage represents my initial thoughts on the site that I will be designing on. I see my Manhattan site as being very linear and similar to a corridor due to its narrow dimensions. I also see the waterfront aspect of this project as one of the driving forces for the design. The location of the site creates many different possibilities for dynamic design.


     
Describe The Word "Edge"  
This collage represents my initial thoughts on the word "edge". I view the word edge as a dividing boundary as well as a contrast of color and geometry. This word can also be interpreted literally as an actual edge as well.

   

Describe The Program
This collage represents my visual interpretation of the program I will have in my design. The goal is to appeal to the general need of improvement to the masses and offer a unique take on wellness that they cannot achieve anywhere else. By blending different programs together I will create a unique environment for workouts of the body, mind, and spirit.  


Visualization of Program
This is a revision of my third collage capturing the program of my center. This center is focused on promoting physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. People who come to this center should feel energized and revived as well as motivated to be productive. This center will include a library, music and art space, mediation space, spa, lecture chamber, reflection pool, and fitness center.
