TRANSVERSE SPACE
URBAN DWELLING AND EVENT VENUE




NAME: TRANSVERSE SPACE
TYPE: RESIDENTIAL + CULTURAL VENUE
LOCATION: ST. LOUIS, U.S.A.
PROJECT DATE: 2011
STATUS: CONCEPT
The project examines the spectacle of bridging spaces between residential and event venue on three different scales: city, building, and unit. A new lifestyle is created through the crafting of unique physical and visual interaction between the inhabitants and the city.
The different public spaces draw a variety of inhabitants and visitors throughout the city of St. Louis, creating new interactions between people. The unique combination of housing and event spaces challenge the traditional perception of privacy in the residential architecture. The idea of transverse space extends to the private units through the crafting of views towards the surrounding cityscape. The unique patio design blurs the boundary between units.
