Urban Club - New York
Compo.ment.ics²
Inspired by the historical richness of the diaphanous tectonics of gothic cathedrals, the subversive spaces of the baroque, and the ornamental twirls and convolutions of rococo; Compo.ment.ics² translates these formal capacities into an overall correlated systematic:
*Operating on multiple scales and programmatic concerns, the component setup shifts from a-tectonic connections, to performance-related attributes such as apertures for light and louvers conditions, up to the painterly and dynamic affects of ornaments.
*This entire variation of applications gets amplified by the differentiated line distributions, which are shifting from serene, open scenes (compositional lines) to sensuous, intimate pockets (serpertine lines).
*Additionally, the haptic vision of coloration (local, pure and broken tones) activates different surfaces and is highlighting or disguising optical deepness and nuanced affects.
*All this multi-layered systems are gathered into one urban club, located in
On the inside, a canyon-like opening flows through the building and divides the volume into different spatial reconfigurations.
