Idea projektu

THE MAIN OBJECTIVE OF THE PROJECT IS TO BRING SOCIAL AND LANDSCAPE ADAPTIVITY AS A KEY-DESIGN TOOL.
NATURE AS A RESOURCE SHOULD BE THE MAJOR INDICATOR OF ANY ARCHITECTURAL AND SPATIAL INTERVENTION AND THAT’S WHY THIS PROPOSAL FOCUSES NOT ONLY ON HOW THE BUILDING LOOKS LIKE AND WORKS INSIDE, BUT HOW IT INTERFERES WITH THE CLIMATE AND THE SURROUNDING.

URBAN FACTOR

MAIN DRIVER OF THE URBAN SITE TRANSFORMATION STANDS FOR UNDERSTANDING THE MOVEMENT OF THE CITY. KEY STRATEGY IN THIS APPROACH AIMS FOR OPENING THE AREA TO THE PUBLIC AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE IN ORDER TO DIMINISH THE SOCIAL AND SPATIAL DISCREPANCY. MINIMIZING THE OUTER BARRIERS AND INTENSIFICATION OF PEDESTRIAN TRAFFIC ALLOWS TO MERGE THE PLOT INTO EXISTING ROUTES AND INCREASE ACCESSIBILITY.
THE THEATRE POPULAIRE NOW BECOMES POPULAR.


CLIMATE ADAPTIVE LANDSCAPE

BURKINA FASO CLIMATE IS A REAL CHALLENGE. IN ORDER TO FACE THE MAJOR ATMOSPHERIC STRUGGLES - HALF A YEAR OF SEVERE RAINFALLS TOGETHER WITH SOUTH-WEST WIND FOLLOWED BY SIX MORE MONTHS OF SWELTERING HOT AIR FROM NORTH EAST, THE PLOT IS DIVIDED INTO FOUR CLUSTERS WITH AND EXTERNAL LANDSCAPE AS AN ACTIVE HOT WIND AND SURPLUS OF WATER WARRIOR.
BUILDINGS IN CLUSTERS ARE U-SHAPED BRINGING THE MOST SHADOW TO ITS USERS.

TREE AND THE CLUSTERS

TREE AS A SYMBOL OF NATURE, SURVIVAL AND HARSH SEASON RESISTANT ELEMENT OF THE LANDSCAPE.
TREE AS A CORE OF THE SOCIAL INTERACTION THROUGHOUT THE HISTORY OF VERNACULAR ARCHITECTURE IN TROPICAL CLIMATE.
TREE AS A TRIBUTE TO THE SOCIETY.

Technické informace

CLUSTERS ATTACHED TO EXISTING BUILDING TO THE SOUTH ARE DESIGNATED FOR LABO AND ARE SPLIT INTO TWO ZONES. THESE AREAS ARE MORE INTIMATE AND HIDDEN COMPARED TO WORK AND SHOW SO AS TO CREATE A PLACE TO LEARN, STUDY, REST AND GROW IN SILENCE.

SHOW PAVILIONS WITH TICKET OFFICE AND CAFE ARE PLACED IN THE INTERSECTION OF PUBLIC ROUTES AS WELL AS PLAY A ROLE OF ADDITIONAL SCENE OR ZONE FOR IN-SITU INSTALLATIONS. FROM THE URBAN PLAZA THERE IS A RAMP AND SITTING STAGE THAT LEAD TO THE VIEW POINT WITH AN AMAZING OUAGADOUGOU CITY PANORAMA.
