FRATERNAL TWINS
Reinterpretations & Variants


This phase explores the possibilities of a 'fraternal twin' building- using the original case study's identities and any previously identified vocabularies. A series of massing models with different levels of 'zygosity' were made in the development of the new building.

The few vocabularies identified from Herman Hertzberger's Delft Montessori School includes- collaboration, individual, space modification, threshold, connectivity, split- levels, and hierarchy. Keeping these qualities in mind the following massing models were made. The first one (high zygosity) is composed of modular shapes, similar to the original building, while the rest starts varying, to include hallways of different sizes as well as skylight boxes.


(massing models photographs will be inserted later)


The final building is comprised of triangles (plan view), whose form is derived from the modular L-shaped classrooms in Hertzberger's original school building. The building consists of four classrooms, each separated by a threshold to form three different space hierarchy- individual work space, transition space, and collective space. The corridor variates in size, resulting in two large open central spaces. The new building is located a few meters from the original building, with trees lining it on both sides.

Design 3 Phase 3 : Fraternal Twins

Massing


Since Jan Duiker is an architect that focus on function rather than aesthetics, I started building all the massing from one unit which is a cube.

 

High Zygosity
Apply the way Jan Duiker arranged the classrooms
Medium Zygosity
Explore different forms by arranging and stacking the cube in many different ways
Low Zygosity
Combined the 4 Medium zygosities one together in that way it can create courtyard that represents the surrounding environment of the original

All the columns were placed in the way that the beams rotated 45 degrees from the wall





DNA Building



The purpose of having the original building inside a square housing perimeter is to hide itself from other building so its modern look wouldn't clash too much with the environment at that time.

Today all the most of the buildings were replaced with new ones and the modern look is not an issue anymore, so the new building is locating in Beatrix park, The park in Amsterdam Zuid not far from the original site. 


Developing from the low zygosity massing, The new building consists of five stories with one rectangular illogical placed gym. Taking the original ideas like raising the ground floor and arranging the classrooms in a certain position. One open-air classroom could be shared by two regular classrooms.




The structure also still stick to the concept of 45 degrees. The columns were arranged the same way every floor except in the corner, which slimmer tips beams were placed with no columns support.

Case study: Suresnes Open Air School  

My case study building was design for improve public health and to heal children who be tuberculosis name Suresnes Open Air School. So, the school was surrounded by nature and the sliding door of classroom pavilion can open. So wind can come through into the room and student can get fresh air. In the period, it have new disease from mosquito called Zika in Bolivia area. In this country, space is dense by construction and no green around.




At first, the height of old building is short but stretch in horizontal way. Moreover, I design the school in vertical and include nature in the building because this city is very dense and there is no green enough for heal the disease.



This building separate into two areas there are indoor and outdoor. At first floor is the area for facilities such as library, computer lab, storage, and stationary shop. In front of this floor is garden glass room that the tree can spread to the next floor. Second floor is a big canteen, so it can hold all students when they have lunch together in the same time. Student can go out to exterior and play in the garden outside or swim in the glass pool that parents at the first floor can see them.



The last eight floors are classroom that can open to be exterior. So student can come out to play or study out door.







For the circulation, student can use indoor stair or stairs, ramp and slider outside that link between each floor. However, The building is cover by net that stick with the column structure that carry load weight of the building.

KANTANA MEDIA CENTER

The Kantana Media Center was  a place where students from Kantana Institute were allow to show their work  and using it's facilities such as workshop area and cgi room. The media center also allowed people from outside or local area people to have an interaction with. The purpose is to let other people know what Kantana is doing and inspire people from local area. It was placed beside the Kantana Institute, with the same position of  the walkway.  The exterior was built by concrete, while inside there will be undulating brick blocks, creating contrast between the 2 materials.


..........................................................................................

EXPLODED AXONOMETRIC DRAWING & FORM DEVELOPMENT

  
The Kantana Institute has its "cruciform plan" with a walkway to seperate each functional spaces in a type of "horizontal" aarea. The Kantana Media Center took the idea of this cruciform plan, but developed from horizontal to "verticcal". The new building has the cruciform layout at the section and also the same circulation as the existed building does. Leading the idea of this shifted cruciform plan to be developed from horizontal layout to 3D layout.

Project 1.3

Project 1.3 
Fraternal Twins

This is the third phase of the project starting from the beginning of the semester. I have experienced the case study and designing a board game developed the strategy from the case study(School in Vila Nova da Barquinha). In this phase, it was my turn to design a school using the DNA from previous phase.






It is so easy to spot the dominance of this case study building. So I decided to keep the variable in this case is the use of courtyard. The case study have shown that its courtyard have been use as the connection between space in the school. But I changed the use of it to the separation between space and direction of the circulation in side the facility. Actually, this is not a school but an additional facility to support the school to give life more comfortable. As the strategy of the game, just like chess plus you have to be aware of your own area. So this design had aware about the area of the school.

This facility includes a library, art gallery, sport complex, music hall, napping room, dancing studio and a car park. there are two courtyards the first one separated the art & performing building from the library and another one with is jointed but cannot access to each building, you have to go through the over-sized wall which lies around the area.

Lastly, there is a disagreement of my own to what Aires Mateus' words. They once said that they designed the school to look like castle so the children would feel safe and secure inside but I think you would not want your children to 'judge to book by its cover,' so I put in a very simple and boxed-look facade. So it looks a little boring but with an over-sized door as a point of interest.
