PHASE 1 - DESIGN BRIEF
CONTEXT
Site
Site is located between the TU Delft Campus and the Old Town. see photos, maps, neighbours
In the scale of the city the site plays important role according to strategic zoningplans of Delft. City wishes to see the site as an important link between the city and the campus. In the context of the northern part of the campus the site is not located on the traffic artery. The site is invisibile and closed, it is not relating to its surroundings. At the same time the site itself has very valuable natural qualities.
CONCLUSION
According to the strategic city plans in Delft, there is a need to strengthen the link between the old town and the TU Campus. This is the crucial task for the site. But the site is not situated on the logistical artery, the creation of the link with wide public use has to overcome the problem of the secondary location. There is a need for the site to become more than its location per se promises.
The Municipality of Delft: The northern area is a TU-important link between the old town and the Campus Complex. If we develop TU-North there is the opportunity do strengthen this link. In the current situation is the Julianalaan a physical barrier between the faculty of Architecture and ‘de Vries van Heijstplantsoen’, but with a renewed traffic structure it can be more like frontgarden of the building, or become more related to the Delft Science Center.

Connections
There are three type of connections for our project - the users, the clients and the contacts. The users (mostly students) are consuming the public space character. Through that they are becoming the customers for the clients, the users can be seen as the amplifiere of the programme. The second group are the clients (TU Delft, Science centre, Food caterer) of the programmed space (commercial functions, exhibition, showroom,...)
CONCEPT
Challenge
Our design challenge is to create a site with evolving identity which serves the spatial affordance of certain activities in dynamically changing programmatic context.
We are seeking for amplification of public activities to promote the private functions.
Specialization
Site conditioning for identity. The site has to be conditioned to have a set of qualities that allow fixed character through desired activities. We are achieving these qualities through representational and spatial means.
Our challenge is to manipulate the with the memory of the users to amplify activities.
Project
PRECONDITION TOOLS
atom04:'''precondition tools'''
We are making the desired program possible through making preconditions to them. The precondition is a mixture of spatial and representational means. The spatial rules will be give characteristic of the theme, the representational rules will be amplify the situation. For this site we are creating solutions for the interfaces for commercial, non-govermental and preservation themes see more
DEFINITIONS
Here we are defining the key concepts to manage the problems of the site. The problematic identity of the place will be thought through according to the ideas od Differentiation, Personalization and the Urban phenomena. The difference itself is achieved through the concepts of time - repetition, the routine and the trace. The interactivity of those will be seen through participation, reaction and the ghost. see the definitions
REFERENCES
We have been investigating different spatial installations, that are having strong identity although having no programm. We were looking into atmospheric qualities that are related to the moods, spatial dislocations and concepts of time. read more
We are dealing with extremely changeable program. We can create the constant indentity even when the program cannot be relied on. It makes the possibilities of development extremely flexible. The is our cure for the changing and unstable. We are providing tools for giving character to public space. We are making preconditions to specific programmes. These tools will overcome the difficulties of the site.
INTERVENTION
Process strategy
Memory Machine
The memory machine is a tactical tool to improve the local identity. This simple device can replay spatial situations to create the needed mood(abstract repetition) or to establish an interactive relationship with the users (personal repetition). The machine has recording and replaying devices (sound, visuals) to point out the virtual representation of wanted situation. The images can be also processed with certain filters to improve the identity of the client. The pictures can be repainted according to specific mood of event or missing mood of the moment. The filters are dealing with the colouring, contrasting, shuffling, sharpening, blurring and proportioning the reality towards emotion. The machine is collecting, processing and displaying data.
Public-private interface
The Border between the private and the public gives us a clear research theme on existing typologies. The parametrical model will have to deal with the complexity of the transition spaces, through levels that are describing the becoming from private to public. The generalization of those rules allow us to dive in the problem according to the level of the flexibility constraints. Those rules will give us several possibilities as an end result. According to the level of the programmatic instability it can be seen as total flexibility, a functional theme, a typology or even a specific function.
SOLUTIONS
INTERVENTION
Create accessible urban public space
What is the identity now?
We want to create an interactive space With an identity created by the memories of the users
