Urban Observatory: A Catalyst for Community Connection

Project details

This project introduced me to formal drafting and plan development, marking a pivotal step in my architectural education. The design features a four-story tower oriented to harness the dynamic presence of wind, creating a space that combines research, education, and community engagement. The ground floor serves as a public hub with an interactive chamber for educational displays, while the upper deck is equipped with meteorological instruments for wind data collection. The design also includes a panoramic lower deck for public enjoyment and a versatile courtyard for social gatherings. Through detailed plans and precise drafting, I translated these elements into a cohesive design that balances functionality, education, and community use.
