Sports Area - Tectonic Assembly to Tectonic Expression

“Kernform” (core form)and “Kunstform” (art form) informs two different, yet integrated elements of design as a composition. This method involves seeing the Architectural Experience as a form of composition of systems formed out of material exploration through the medium of structural tectonic assembly. This studio explored this concept for a sports arena program.Through this studio, a holistic idea of how structure and material tectonics play an important role in sculpting out the expression was developed. Details including program development to concept explorations were rendered with an in depth understanding of structural assemblies and their tessellation.
