SHAPE SHEDThis project begins by assigning forms to the
collective and individual components of programs. The continuous convention center is
positioned facing the city while all the smaller programs look outward toward the lake.
This produces a greater urban connection to the convention center and more intimate atmospheres
for the smaller individual programs. This convention and shape open face sandwich is then
folded on itself to maximize the horizontal area of the convention spaces. The continuous
convention spaces remain smooth but the interior becomes even more jagged and now compressed. This compression forces the
individual shapes together allowing them to combine and share interior atmospheres.
