Configurations of space using Rhino model

Talk with Karl on Thursday:
-being breaking the ground plane and start using realistic circulations with ramps as a way to divide up spaces

















The first iteration:
Uses a standard element to configure overall circulation and form, resulting in spaces between for integration of additional program or light wells, hanging gardens.


















The second:
Shows circulation between classrooms and holes in circulation representing program below that would push up for light. The red plane represents street level and the orange planes below suggests that the program below begins digging into the ground plane. The sizes of classrooms vary according to the breakup of K-3, 4-6, 7-8. The largest classrooms are the K-3 and are pushed to the north end of the site, farthest from the street.
