Isometric at Entrance
The entrance foyer features a plaza that opens up to the city and its inhabitants and allows for a public space. As we parse through, the staircase paves the way towards the office units, community gardens and the second entrance to the skateboard park sub-structure.

The development is proposed for the city of Chicago, Illinois that has transition plans towards clean energy sources. The project hosts processing units, office spaces and community garden spaces. Further it invites the community to use the facility as a skateboard park. This feature immensely helped inform the playful form of the structure.
The structure features a rhythm of courtyard spaces that weave together to make this one playful space and one fit for communing. As the forms allowed for rhythmic and interwoven courtyard spaces, I was able to sculpt spaces for allotment gardens, allowing the occupants respite.
