Re-Fine Brief


SCRIPT 
An architectural proposal through a creative as well as logically and realistically constructed series of events in the form of a factitious story. 

STAGE 
An architectural entity that works. Your story should be constructed so that it best describes the most important aspects of your proposal as well as your proposal should be a response to the future contexts that you are to communicate in your story.
 
SCENES 
Communicate the value and relevance of your architectural proposal. They can be best described as specific scenes in your Architecture Fiction. 

Site: The Myer Center Facade on Elizabeth Street. 

Proposal: To re-furbish an existing building, rather then erecting a new building. Reasons for this include; refurbishment  consumes far less energy that that required to erect a new building; The Myer Center functions adequately; Working with a building facade provides interesting challenges to building form, structure, circulation, and aesthetics; Layering over our existing streets scapes provides opportunity to re-capture green space in urban areas. 

Architectural Entity: Teared form that layers over Elizabeth street, and attaches to the Myer Center Facade. The entity en-captures green space, circulation that flows from the Myer Center into, public exterior park space. The space is activated by a multitude of office modules of different sizes, acoustic and privacy components.  Interactive touch screens (identified in project 1) are used as a tool of connecting our work environments with others all over the world. 

Concept: People will take their work with them. Not only will people be able to conduct work on the move, but people will have more flexible work hours that adapt to peoples lifestyles.
