Schematic Design Process

Our group decided to work individually as an initial process, then combining all our ideas, thoughts, concepts into one design. I went along with the concept of connection, using it in the interior and exterior of the building. Dealing with how the materials chosen connect with the existing materials, how the present day design connects with this build's past and how to connect people with the space and make it useable for everyone. These are some of my ideas for the space...

















Conceptual ways of way-finding and space layouts

















Idea of having an interior space that can be multi functional, for gatherings & events as well as a space for seating.

















Layout of the 1st floor, with the idea that there is a large opening to allow light to the basement floor, incorporating indoor seating and retail spaces

















Basement level, more of the market feeling. Having stalls for the tenants, leased out to them for a certain time. Allowed to design within their space. Looking up to the 1st floor, open space allowing seating not making it crowded.

















Looking at the space on the 1st floor with the open space to the basement. Elevator and stairs would be lead you down. Greensboro native art with be displayed over the space. Greenery is incorporated because there were many green pictures on the inspiration wall.
