Studio Final: Plan

THE STUDIO BUILDING


STUDIO FLOORS 1ST, 2ND AND 3RD



STUDIO FLOORS 4TH, 5TH AND 6TH


THE RESIDENTIAL BUILDING


RESIDENTIAL BUILDING PLAN


The residential building is seperate from the studio building in all but one connection. I believe this helps the students have a place to go to that is physically removed from the studio which can sometimes get very hectic. There are also spaces in the residential building to do some school work. Desks and data connectivity is provided in each space, offering the opportunity to study, do research, read, etc outside of the studio space. Which I beleive is very important.

TYPICAL UNIT PLAN


The typical unit plan is 2 small semi private bedrooms, with a common bath on the top floor, and 1 larger bedroom with a private bath at street level. The living space features a full kitchen and living area on the middle level with access to the common corridor to the studio building. This corridor also serves as an egress path for the units. The layout of this unit is derived from the potential to use this as a rental unit when the program is not in session.
