Mid-Point Review at HKS

This week, we continued to develop our project to prepare it for the mid-point review. The Interior Designers focused on developing the 8,000 sq. ft. that will be shown in the final presentation. The Architects focused on exterior perspectives and elevations.

Our goals for the week include:

• fully developed floor plans for the 4 chosen spaces
• windows added to the exteriors
• finalized exterior materials

Bubbles, Massing & Modeling

After analyzing the progam, we began to develop bubble diagrams to place all spaces in proper adjacencies. These bubble diagrams then led to the beginning massing of the overall space. In the massing, we stuck to the idea of "blocking out" the individual spaces. These blocks are easily seen in the sketchup models. This gives the exterior a dynamic look by creating depth and interest with the varied levels of blocks. Also, some of the blocks will be done in different materials, which will help the massing to stand out.

Getting Started: Project Mission, Analysis, Concepts

mission: in order to revitalize the Tulsa North neighborhood, we must create the building blocks of this community with an emphasis on wellness. By focusing not just on the clinic but its environment we can build of the sense of community and breathe new life into this area. Our main goals include creating a sense of openness and interaction amongst community members and accessibility to tools to improve all aspects of life. This project can be the first block to revitalizing the Tulsa area.

site analysis and preliminary blocking

precedent studies

in order to better understand what is currently happening in clinic design, we conducted precedent studies. these studies allowed us to analyze other designs and to find aspects of each design that we found were either successful or unsuccessful.

inspiration

we looked at several current clinic-type facilities to get inspiration for different elements in our design.

after compiling this information, we created some intial concepts and rough sketches to show our goals for this project
