GYM

concept:

I wanted this gym to exude movement and energy. I used lines and curves to create pathways through the sections of the gym as a form of way finding. I also used varied materials such as different types of wood and recycled rubber flooring to break up the flooring and create different textures. Using more natural colors for the wood flooring and accents, I was able to add bright colors in the rubber flooring and on the walls to contrast the dark and light wood. I incorporated a children’s area on the second floor of the gym because of how important family is to the typical Swedish person. Unlike in the United States, many employees bring their children and pets to work and it is much more acceptable there than it is here. Thus, I wanted to honor that tradition and allow a space for children to play and be active while their parents are at work or are working out downstairs. The furniture around the refreshment area falls in line with modern Swedish design – clean lines and solid colors. I used the precedents above for inspiration on color schemes, materials, and overall form of the space.

Design Concept

Beacon of light

Our building creates a vanishing point to Stockholm’s skyline. Our Beacon of Light marks the beginning of the season of renewal.  It expresses energy, motion, and reawakening. As it stands tall; it marks the Stockholm of the future. It honors the Stockholm of the past and keeps moving forward to the Aurora...

Charlotte Charette: design collaboration

UNC-Charlotte hosted a design charette with the architecture students. The target focus was directed to the relationship of our skyscraper building site. We discussed our project and made quick sketches. The architectural students offered clear advise and suggests that we always work in plan and elevation to achieve any design goal. Helping us to understand site specifics and orientation. Thereby, creating sketch models that facilitated quick design processes. Concluding our visit to Charlotte, IKEA Furniture store inspired us its Scandinavian design ideas.
