DESA1002 'Continuous City' <Mark Vukovich>

Abstract

Market/Night Time Entertainment The purpose of my building is to provide a meeting place and social hang out in Jerusalem for the locals. This will hopefully provide a peaceful way for the many cultures to meet and mingle with each other with out violence. I chose to design my building to be a market during the day and provide a place for night time entertainment. In both these places people can easily meet each other and are forced to mingle with each other. For the deign of my building I wanted it to fit in with the existing architecture and surrounding buildings as much as possible, while not to be boring or one dimensional. For this reason my building will be built of Jerusalem stone with the feature walls around the entry being the only exception being in a rust coloured stone. Red feature walls are being used to modernise the building and to break up the monotone colour of the Jerusalem stone. From the start of my design the feature walls and open entry have been a integral part of my design.
