Urban Exploration: Mapping the Layers of City Life

Delve into the complexities of city living by exploring physicality, abstraction, and analysis through spatial mapping and recording. This graduate studio design project challenges you to perceive the city's solid and void spaces, societal structures, and environmental contexts. Utilize computer simulations, mixed media, and data analysis to uncover the intricate layers that shape urban environments. Understand the city beyond its surface and discover the interconnected web of elements that define it. Expand your perspective on urban life through this immersive exploration.

  1. 801760 : Graduate Studio Design : 1/2010 Spatial Mapping, Recording, Analyzing

  2. Positing yourself to the city and architecture first: • - what is the city? • - Generic or constructed or both? • Accidentally happen? Or there is a duration and process? • Have you seen the city as multi-layers or meaning? • Have you seen the city as a still object or flexible entity?

  3. how many layers you have perceived? • - physicality, boundary, route, edge, height…. • People who live in? do you think they are part of condition how we perceive the city? If so, what do we need to think of…. • Or a part of abstraction, mentality, activities, class system, prejudice, gender, social life, career… ? • How we can capture all of these aspects?

  4. 01 : Focusing on Physicality

  5. Urban Form : Solid and Void of the City

  6. Urban Form : Positive and Negative Space

  7. Urban Form : Context and Environment

  8. City Block : Land Use

  9. Land Use

  10. City Block : Property Line

  11. Computer Simulation

  12. Computer Simulation

  13. Computer Simulation

  14. Contour Line : Geographical Property

  15. Photograph : Caption

  16. Satellite Image : Google Earth

  17. Mixed Media : Satellite Image and Computer Simulation

  18. Mixed Media : Computer Graphic : Specific Program like Space Syntax

  19. 02 : Focusing on Abstraction

  20. People : Ancestor : Everyday Life

  21. People : Vernacular : ways of living

  22. People : Vernacular : ways of living

  23. People : ways of living : Clan : Social Structure

  24. People : how to observe them : Staler : Non-Participated Observer

  25. From Observing to Recording : 2D and 3D

  26. From Observing to Recording : Movement : Gathering Place

  27. From Observing to Recording : Route : Connection in the space

  28. From Observing to Recording : Routine : Activities

  29. 03 : Focusing on Part of Analysis

  30. What do we have after we map a physicality and we record data of abstraction? - Prediction, Assumption, Speculation

  31. Preparation, Classification, Design, Preparation, ….

  32. Different Data tell us different story : Closed Space and Open Space : Route and Road : some related conditions

  33. Different Data tell us different story : Closed Space and Open Space : Route and Road : some related conditions

  34. Different Data tell us different story : Closed Space and Open Space : Route and Road : some related conditions

  35. Different Data tell us different story : Geometrical Data (Physicality), Topological Data (Movement and Connection in Space),Social Data (Abstraction), Semantic Data (Analysis)
