TOPIARIC FINDS

Studio: Group Project for Senior Studio (Common(s) Ground w/Mariana Ibañez)

In Collaboration With: Charley Andrews and Yelena Tamrazyan for UCLA Architecture and Urban Design

--

“The Common(s) Ground Studio investigates the various forms of negotiation among individuals, the communities they belong to, and the private and public entities that regulate and participate in their spatial reality.”

Architecture exists as an ambiguous relationship between the part and the whole where reality obscures preconceived expectations. Instead of perceiving the whole, we only see fragments that then raise questions about scale, perspective, and program.

Tasked with encompassing multi-use spaces, different types of housing, and spaces to serve the community, our group created Topiaric Finds, a three floor, four million square foot structure nestled in the hills of Griffith Park. 

Through this project we explore different scales of programming that reinforces the enormity of our structure, so that it’s true shape and size is left ambiguous when viewed through human perspective.
