Multipurpose
Ground Floor
The ground is more for people to pass by. It is like a street, to allow people to catch a glimpse of what's inside.
First Floor
This floor is more of a dining area where all the food stalls and eating are located.
The dining here is jutted out form the building allow it to have more space. Also the dining area here attracts people from the highway to visit the building.
The empty space here allow people to look down an enjoy the view of the garden below while dining.
This part is the artist's studio and workshop. I wanted it on the top so that the artist can have a good view of the city while making art.
Having plantation at the side of the studio gives inspirations to the artist. Maybe it could be combined with the studio.
Second Floor
Art and nature will be located on this floor where it is more quiet. The nature at the part is for plantation of fruits and vegetables where it can get most of the sunlight here.
The exterior will be glass to show the people what is going on inside the buidling.
There will be an opening which shows the view of the garden inside. Framing the beauty beyond, attracting people to discover.
Analysis
Strengths

The circulation of the building is more logical.
​
-

​​​
​
Weaknesses
-
The form might not be able to fit the context but this can be altered if the exterior is geometrical and the interior is organic.
​
-
More work and experiment needed to be done on this design due to the organic shape of it.
​
-
It may create some awkward and leftover spaces.
