HDC Final Presentation

This is my final presentation.
Thank you all for the feedback and support.

Massing Update

Sorry for the wait, I've been really busy these last two weeks.
This is the final massing without materials. I'm still experimenting.
Final presentation will be posted in a few days.

Massing Update

These are my massing updates. I am currently working on the facade and the interior elements.
My master plans will also be posted soon.

HDC (Human Development Center) Plans, First Draft

This is my first Attempt at the plans. I need some help with my core. I would like to have a pair of scissor stairs and two elevators. I just made a 20x17' box.
I was able to fit all my program within the massing. I am now addressing the double height spaces.
I am looking into having a triple height space upon entering my lobby.

Please download this image, it is to small to view on the blog.

Vertical Circulation & Ground Level Adjustments

For this update, I removed the previous massing on the public plaza completely. Adding a grand stairway as an entrance and introducing vertical circulation along the corner of the plaza. A secondary core was also inserted toward the South st. massing. The plaza now larger offers a chance for landscape design and can have a bigger impact on the south st. Seaport neighborhood.
