library, a public library and a cafe. The site<br />

THE CONCEPT<br />

28<br />

On the east and<br />

west side of the<br />

site,there was<br />

two streets, the<br />

one on the west<br />

had yearly events<br />

which made it a<br />

known street, on<br />

the other side,<br />

dead<br />

street<br />

lively<br />

street<br />

view<br />

the site has a slope of 21 Meters.<br />

the eastern street was abandoned and<br />

dead, I wanted to both streets through<br />

my project which might create an<br />

opportunity to bring back the life to the<br />

street. Also, I wanted to optimize the use<br />

of the view and minimize the cut and fill<br />

chances, by building on mulitiple levels<br />

and creating an courtyard.<br />

optimize most area of the site.<br />

create an openning to define<br />

entrance.<br />

distribute construction to mutiple<br />

levels to minimize cut and fill effect.<br />

create roof garden and open the<br />

area from the west to link the<br />

two streets.
