Keeping in mind the idea previously mentioned of a continous garden that is being interr
upted by solid elements all throughout campus, I decided to focus on one specific area of the UNAM, as an area of transition, which is the area of the School of Architecture. In this area, the main quad, which is a very big and continous garden space, is loosing that continuity and starting to be disrupted by the school of architecture, creating small pieces of non continous garden. This transition moment ends with the begining of the road that surrouds campus, which has no gardens at all, and also counts with a more linear and dynamic arrangement than the big and continous garden.
For my first map, What I tried to to was to give some depth to the area that is bei
ng analyzed, giving some emphasis to the important elements such as the regulating lines that the map has, the green spaces, and the solid elements that show the idea of disruption previously mentioned. The area of the road at the bottom is represented with linear elements, also with depth, that represent the dynamic quality of the bottom part. As for the area of transition, The School of Architecture itself, its the part with more importancem therefore the 3 dimensional qualities of those elements differ from the rest in order to give it more importance.
For the second map, the axonometric drawing, I am showing the plane of the a
rea analyzed, and on top, all of the extruded buildings, represented as solids, in order to show the massive quality of the buildings and the capability of disruption these buildings have. Underneath the plane, the regulating lines are shown, as the possible arrangement and extension of the gardens which suggest a big open space, that is not disrupted by any element at all, and that reminds us that the gardens found at the UNAM in the end are all one. Sections are cut through the transition zone, to show that mass and void of the transition area.
As for the third map, the concept I was thinking was to base my map on my previous project, Boîte-en-Valise, and treat the UNAM campus as a cubist painting, and give depth to the different elements found in the site around the main library, in order to create not only different spaces, unique spaces, such as in the previous project but also, to show that the idea behind the UNAM campus is very abstract, very modernist, turned into useful spaces.
