spatial analysis drawing addressing negative space in traffic flows

Heidegger's ideas on architectural space revolve around the application of a phenomenological significance to that space. In the US, vehicles provide a space for socialising, commerce, love, worship etc. Life occurs in these isolated pods of space, and the fluid negative spaces in between these pods allow for for these vehicles to function as such. When the negative space is reduced to nothing the architecture fails, and its phenomenological significance is abruptly ended through the removal of one of the 'fourfold', mortality. This is my pictorial analysis of those relationships in accordance with negative space.

The Site.

At Market and Valencia, we are taking an unused plot with front and rear access to insert our programme. Our design is for an expanded branch of the Wattis Art Institute in the City that can combine its former Capp Street Artist Residency programme into the building. Galleries, living spaces, theatres and studios are to be incorporated.
