Back in the game....

Over the winter break I studied overseas in Venice and feel like this experience will have a direct influence on my design and evolution of my concept for this session.
Most importantly a series of precedents studied overseas have influenced my perception of light use, circulation and access. The three main precedents include Carlos Scarpa's Brion Cemetery, a collection of Palladio's Villas and the intensive studio project we undertook in Venice.
The project involved design for "The Good Life". We looked at a series of Sydney modernist homes designed by Aussie architects over the past 60-70 years along with the Palladian Villas to understand the quality of life these people experienced. We then design 8 villas and a community space.
Anyway, the coincidental link is that of an emphasis on circulation. Last session we looked at circulation in our final submission. This is key to my concept this session and I feel like my building form has and will continue to evolve based on the need for circulation around the stack which is integrated into the design of the building. The faces of the stack are used as projection screens/walls inside the building. The games that are designed for the young people to learn life skills are to be projected on the walls of the stack and as a the games are completed, the users move up the building to complete each stage of skill.
