Mini's opinion


I like the sketches. That's sort of how the curvy option started. I laid down a grid along the site axis and the north/south axis. Attaching the image.

Anyways, if we are going for simpler, I think the first one is good.
I am not entirely sure if we need a hole for the stage in the end...
Maybe it's cooler if one of the bundle comes down to form a stage kind of similar to the bench.
I don't know. I vote for #1.

Plan Diagrams

Hey...

We looked at the drawings mini and taka did... and we like the second one with the red section, for its simplicity and clarity, and we like the programmatic logic of sun shading, stage, gathering spaces. and seating areas... so we try to make them come together.

I think the undulations and curves will come in how the pipes are bundled and tie together... and some sectional shifts, especially in getting lower to become seats and for blocking the sun, etc. But the plan remains kind of simple...

So we made three attempts... which do you guys like better?
