Through various interviews with clients, attorneys, and the Cornell Peace Studies director, I developed a formula that articulates this process, formalizing it tectonically as a dedicated structure that facilitates the stages of conflict resolution.
The needs of the parties in progressing through each level of negotiation informs the core program distribution and access. Circulation of opposing groups, floating collobaration spaces, client privacy, and transparency of space are among the primary considerations that drive form. These were vital in establishing a system of levels in a setting where information is key, and parties have a vested interest in leaving with the best possible outcome in their favor.My work consisted of the 3-d Test Fit Studies shown in axonometric diagram below.ARCHITECTURE // Conflict Resolution CenterRhino 3d modelSite planSite mapSynopsisSketchArrival sequence diagramsview notebookTranslating the "tunnel of presumption" tectonicallyTranslating the "tunnel of presumption" tectonically, sketch< BACK
