from  Eliinbar’s Sketchbook 2012- Le Corbusier’s “raising Ramp-trend”

-

Happy to be back after a long and challenging vacation….

In this post I will share with you a new “Conscious Inspiration” story….

The Story of the”Raising Ramp Trend”.

As always….
I’ll be brief in presenting the historical background of the “Raising Ramp”
The Full story is complex and long….(I may write more about it in the book I will publish before my retirement….)

The “Raising Ramp” planning component highlighting the building’s entrance….
And suggests the main traffic strategy inside the building

The interesting and significant chapter in this story begins with a project designed by Le Corbusier in the sixties.

The Carpenter Center for Visual Arts built at 1963 in the Harvard University, shown in the image below.

Massachusetts 1963

Richard Meier a contemporary recognized and influential Architect, frequently uses the principle of the ”Raising Ramp” in several of his buildings .

Le Corbusier unique style is recognized as Richard Meier ”inspiration sources”,  from the time Richard Meier was still part of a group called “The New York Five” in the seventies.

The High Museum of Art designed and built by Richard Meier  in 1983 shown in the image below,  is a relevant example.

Atlanta – Georgia , U.S  1983 

-

Architect Oscar Niemeyer of  Corbusier’s generation,  is still designing
contemporary architectural, using the principle of the “Raising Ramp”

An example of this, see the image below of the Art  Museum Niterói designed by Oscar Niemeyer  in the nineties.

Contemporary Art Museum Niterói

Niterói, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, completed in 1996.

-

Another example from the beginning of the decade
Is a the Oslo Opera House designed by the Snohetta Architectural firm.

The unique design of the Oslo Opera House is a good example of implementing the principals of the “conscious inspiration method”

Snohetta took the design principle of “Raising Ramp” a step forward….

They gave a new interpretation to the idea of of the “Raising Ramp”

John Hejduk , Aldo van Eyck, SANAA and the “Perfect Floor Plan”.

Posted in buildings, public buildings with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , on February 24, 2012 by eliinbar

eliinbar’s Sketchbook 2012  The  “perfect floor plan”.

-

I invite you all

Even if you are not trained in reading architectural plans

To delve into the example shown in this post.

An unusual example illustrating the processes of “Conscious Inspiration”.

-

This post is telling the story of an Inspiring floor plan designed by John Hejduk.

An Architect who was a contemporary theorists and a researcher more than a builder…. And on a personal note…. My inspiration for making architectural sketches….

Hejduk was the Legendary Dean of the Cooper Union School of Art and Architecture  from 1972 to 2000.

Generations of architects were inspired by his Sketches and theoretical architectural projects.

-

The following image is Hejduk’s  floor plan for a utopian”Diamond House”

Hejduk’s floor plan for the “Diamond House” is an inspiring struggle with the endless search for the “perfect floor plan”.

A floor plan with the exact relationship between the main floor areas , and the” left over spaces” in-between.

 John Hejduk

 ”Diamond Houses”

1950-60

-

-

Five years later the inspiring and unique architect, Aldo van Eyck, contributes to world architectural heritage, his interpretation to the     ” perfect floor plan”.

The Sonsbeek’s Pavilion. Floor plan

Aldo van Eyck Architect

 Sonsbeek Pavilion

 1965-1966

-

A calculated guess …. Aldo van Eyck’s inspiration source is  Hejduk’s “Diamond House” floor plan. 

Note the similar strategy in both floor plans

1. Explicit formal selection of building envelope, rhombus regular polygon and perfect circle.

2. The decision to crate leftover spaces braided between the exterior envelope and the floor plan’s central main mass.

3. The choice of the curving interior walls.

4. The Choice of the orthogonal  arrangement .

-

Look at the next two floor plan images….

Almost 40 years later the SANAA architecture firm designs  unique floor plans for the 21st Century Museum in Japan and the Glass Pavilion in Toledo, Ohio, they implement the same design principals John Hejduk and Aldo van Eyck implemented in their designs 40 years ago …

Epilogue

What are Constructivist teaching methods? (Conscious Inspiration Method”) 

1. Constructivist teaching theoretical framework holds that learning always builds upon knowledge that we already know.

2. Constructivist learning theory says that all knowledge is constructed from a base of prior knowledge.

3. Constructivists suggest that learning is more effective when we are actively engaged in the learning process.

4. We learn how to learn, by giving the training to take initiative from our own learning experiences.

The New “Multi Style BuildingsTrend” – Herzog-De-Meuron & Jean Nouvel & Dominique Perrault & Massimiliano and Doriana Fuksas

Posted in buildings, public buildings with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , on February 19, 2012 by eliinbar

eliinbar’s Sketchbook 2012 - “Multi Style Buildings Trend”

-

From time to time I present in my blog new architectural trends.

This time, I recognize a new trend that I call it “Multiple style buildings”.

Buildings designed by one architect divided into several parts.

Each part of the building is characterized by a different architectural style.( materials, different morphology, the building envelope, the building openings etc.)

Recently were completed several buildings, designed by leading architects that are compatible with the new trend.

I wonder if in the near future we will meet more buildings designed like the new trend?

Are they going to look more like “Copy Paste design” or  they will be designed in accordance to the principles of “Conscious Inspiration” ?

Here are some recent examples of the new trend….

“Conscious Inspiration” the ultimate inspiration methodology

 “Knowledge”:  as many said, and wrote before – Knowledge is the foundation for all designing process. We architects and designers are obliged to be informed about everything that was designed in the past and on a daily basis….

“Tools”:  develop tools to analyze buildings and “Understand” them,  tools that will cope with the abundance of architectural information…

“Invention”:  with the methodology of “conscious Inspiration” , we don’t need to be intimidated to get inspired from relevant buildings.  Once we develop our tools, it will lead us to high quality and creative architecture

Zaha Hadid’s “floating Inspiration”

Posted in buildings, public buildings with tags , , , , , , , , , , on February 16, 2012 by eliinbar

Zaha Hadid is a winner of many international competitions, theoretically influential and ground breaking.

A number of Hadid’s winning designs were initially never built. The Peak Club in Hong Kong (1983) shown in this post is one of them.

 

Hadid‘s Process of Exploring through Painting is Inspiring….

But what are Zaha Hadid’s Inspiration Sources?

-

The image shown below is Chernikhov’s  futuristic building, Demonstrating his search for the forms and images of new architecture.

It was published in his book  “Architectural Fantasies” (1925-1933)

 -

And this is Zaha Hadid’s image for the Peak Club international competitions in Hong Kong (1983)

 Notice the architectural characteristic features identical in both Images

1. Hovering Rectangular volumes.

2. Floating curve.

3. Constructivists visionary power

4. Vertical cylindrical elements

-

Eliinbar Sketches 2012 - Zaha Hadid’s “floating Inspiration”

-

Could it be that Chernikhov’s image, is Zaha Hadid’s Inspiration source for the Peak Club design?

For you to judge….

-

What did I learn from this post?

Zaha Hadid’s projects hover and float, animated by the same visionary power that marked the ground–breaking Constructivist structures that Vladimir Tatlin, El Lissitzky, Moisei Ginzburg  and Chernikhov imagined….

-

And for dessert….

What do you say about Zaha hadid’s MAXXI National Museum of XXI Century Arts floating structure,  shown in the image below ?

Can you imagine what are its origins (“Inspiration Sources”)?

Frank Gehry’s and Zaha Hadid’s “Victorian inspiration”

Posted in public buildings with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on February 6, 2012 by eliinbar

From Eliinbar”s Sketchbook,2012, Frank Gehry’s & Zaha Hadid’s Inspiration Sources

-

This post  Traces Zaha Hadid’s  “Conscious inspiration” design Methodology, that eventually engenders a unique and winning design such as the Riverside Museum in Glasgow Scotland.

Zaha Hadid’s planning process Shown in this post is based on my own understanding  (for you to judge)….  my Intention is to introduce Zaha Hadid’s strategy implementing the “conscious inspiration method”

Zaha Hadid’s starts her design process by connecting to Accessible information sources “she is informed about everything that was designed in the past and on a daily basis”

-

1.

This is a St Silas church in Glasgow

It’s style building is known as Victorian

-

Notice the Repetitive theme of the triangular gable

-

And this is the Riverside Museum’s front entrance designed by Zaha Hadid in Glasgow. She gives an innovative interpretation to the repetitive Victorian gable.

2.

This is an Aerial view

of the Central railway Station In Glasgow

 

And this is an Aerial view of  Zaha Hadid’s Riverside Museum in Glasgow

Note the linear and continuous configuration of the building roof

in the two images 

-

-

3.

This is an image of the departures board in Glasgow’s Central railway station sealing.

Notice the configuration of the extruded triangular-shaped roof

-

-

And this is an inner image of the Zaha Hadid’s Riverside Museum sealing in Glasgow.  Notice the configuration of the extruded triangular-shaped roof

-

-

4.

And finally as I mentioned more than once” we don’t need to be intimidated to get inspired from relevant buildings” 

This is the Image of the Dundee Maggie’s Centre in Scotland, designed by Frank Gehry, opened its doors  in 2003

Notice the variable repetitive theme of the triangular gable.

 -

Who knows…. maybe this recognized building in Dundee shown in the following picture, is the inspiration source for Gehry’s Maggie’s Centre .

Note the initial visual characteristics of the two buildings.
Triangular pediment and vertical tower next to It…..

The McManus Galleries in the centre of Dundee

architect Sir George Gilbert Scott 

The style building is known as Victorian Gothic

Foster and Partners & Grimshaw Architects “Sophisticated spiral Inspiration”

Posted in public buildings with tags , , , , , , , , on February 2, 2012 by eliinbar

In my previous post I raised the possibility that Grimshaw’s architects Garibaldi Exhibition Building Is the inspiration source to Zaha Hadid‘s Burnham Pavilion

In this post it seems that Grimshaw’s architects switch roles….

Could it be that Grimshaw Architects took their inspiration from London City Hall designed by Foster,when planning the new Fulton Street Transit Center in New York?…….. For you to judge….

-

Zaha Hadid & Grimshaw Architects, wrapped softly….

Posted in public buildings with tags , , , , , , , on January 30, 2012 by eliinbar

From time to time I hold a mirror and try to reflect  the contemporary architectural reality, for you to judge,

I must  confess…. it makes it more interesting when it comes to famous architects….

Here is another interesting example of “Conscious inspiration“

-

Zaha Hadid is certainly one of the most influential architects working today.

Does Zaha Hadid implement intuitively the “Conscious Inspiration Method” to design unique structures?

-

The following image is Garibaldi Exhibition Building designed by Grimshaw Architects in 2006

-

Grimshaw Architects

Garibaldi Exhibition Building

Milan Italy Competition won: 2006

-

From Grimshaw’s architects cite  about Garibaldi Exhibition Building:

This functional core is then loosely wrapped, as though draped with fabric, in a metal skin that follows the shape of the site, creating something of an urban sculpture. At piazza level, the building is transparent.

Here’s some info from  Zaha Hadid  architects about Burnham Pavilion published in Dezeen: 

The pavilion is composed of an intricate bent-aluminum structure Outer and inner fabric skins are wrapped tightly around the metal frame to create the fluid shape.

Skidmore, Owings and Merrill & Yakov Chernikhov – Is This “Conscious Inspiration”? 2

Posted in buildings, public buildings with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , on January 23, 2012 by eliinbar

In My previous posts I introduced El Lissitzky and Yakov Chernikhov, two constructivist architects that published in their books Inspiring images of Modern and Fantasies Architecture (1923-1933)

-

Apparently they are the source of inspiration for other talented architects.

-

Here is another Interesting example of “Conscious Inspiration”

I invite you to Learn from the process shown above in O.M. Ungers sketch-studies of the Messe Torhaus skyscraper typology.

-

O.M.Ungers intuitively Implements the “Conscious Inspiration Method”. 

First  He is not intimidated to get inspired from Iakov Chernikhov’s design.

Second  He develops tools to analyze Iakov Chernikhov’s  design and “Understand” It. (O.M. Ungers sketch-studies )

Third  He Designs high quality and creative architecture….

Daniel Libeskind , Coop Himmelb(l)au & Iakov Georgievich Chernikhov – so that is how “Conscious Inspiration” works?

Posted in buildings, public buildings with tags , , , , , , , , , , , on January 9, 2012 by eliinbar

Are  Iakov Chernikhov’s, constructivist designs, the Inspiration Sources for two of the leading deconstructivist architects of the 21 century?

Iakov Chernikhov was a constructivist architect and graphic designer. He lived from 1889 to 1951.

He published books with his innovative constructivist architectural design in Leningrad between 1927 and 1933  (See the pictures below)
