PROJECT PROPOSAL SITE ANALYSIS

TARGET USERS

MIXED USE - RESIDENTIAL & COMMERCIAL

RESIDENTIAL MICRO CONDO UNITS - 20,000 SF

PUBLIC BAR & GRILLE - 7,000 SF

PUBLIC COFFEE SHOP - 3,000 SF

OUTDOOR GYM - 10,000 SF

SITE ANALYSIS: Rincon Park, San Francisco

NOISE- Southeast noise from bridge- West noise from Embarcadero tra�c- Aerial noise from helicopters- Northeast noise from ships

SUN- Nearby skyscrapers cast pretty heavy shadows on the Embar-cadero road (from West, refer to sun path diagram)- Sun shadows don’t quite hit the actual park- Sunshine is volatile

WIND- Wind patterns change throughout the day, but for the most part the area receives wind from the Western Paci�c Ocean.- There are spurts of wind that occur in the middle of the night from the north and south regions- Wind is not unbearable as a pedestrian, on a sunny day

TRANSPORTATION- Public Muni & Bart station- Lots of cars, bikes, scooters, etc.- Lots of foot tra�c along Embarcadero (ages 20-60)

CURRENT USE- Public buildings used as o�ce space, some empty squares- Exercise along the Embarcadero (running, biking, weight train-ing)- Nearby restaurants, bars and �tness centers used by locals after work

VEGETATION- Not a lot of natural vegetation- Rincon Park has man-planted bushes, shrubs and non-native palm trees- Seagulls, small chickadee birds and rodents gather towards the ocean

CULTURAL - Sunbathers & exercise on warm afternoons- Nearby weekend Farmer’s Market, summer concert series, ice-skate rink, local events

VIEWS- The best views are of the ocean (east) and the bridge (south-east).

CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT

CROSS: A mark, object or figure formed by two intersecting lines or pieces

People crossing paths on the Embarcadero

Various hubs that serve as connecting points

Interesting criss-cross patterns on the park

Connected those patterns to a building

Continued interpretations of the word “cross” with 3D models - exploring depth, height, proportion, scale and extrusions
