- the placement of the strips was determined by the main movement lines in the site and shortcuts - from BK-City to Science Center
  
After extensive in the architectural composition of the site it was concluded that the structure would curve in only one direction (instead of two) and that the floor would stay static (instead of adaptable as well). It turned out that a double curved structure ánd/ór moving floors are not understandable for the future users. Furthermore a single curved structure and a static floor has a very rich architectural output, while easy to understand

The '''path system''' manages the path infrastructure on the site. It creates '''short-cuts through the site''' to the other surroundings and allows '''access to the activities''' in the site. The system has the following functionality:
  
'''<span style="color:orange">Architectural proposal</span>'''
+
'''- check if new activity is connected to a path '''
  
[[File:site00.gif|380px|left]]
+
'''- if not then create a new path on the right patch of new activity '''
  
The architectural implementation of the structure follows a set of rules, they can be found in the pictures below.
+
'''- if two activities are linking then merge activities and move path to the right of the rightmost activity'''
  
Part of the original '''<span style="color:orange">vegetation</span>''' of the site is maintained. Not only to create a border between the heavy traffic surrounding the site, but also to create a transition zone between the activities and structure and the direct environment. The lower bushes and the high trees are kept to create this transition border. The lower bushes make sure the structure is visible from the outside and the site looks accessible. The high trees give the the border more body and ultimately define the shape of the plan of the structure.
 
  
The structure system itself creates '''<span style="color:orange">pathways</span>''' next to spaces, see technical implementation. Even without these automatically created pathways the site is still accessible. Four entrances/exits are created in the border: two leading to the faculty of architecture, one leading to the Science Centre and one leading to the Botanical Gardens of TU Delft. Situated between the green border and the structure is a small pathway that can be followed all around the site. This ensures the site is always accessible in the best way possible.

Path system logic scheme
  
The '''<span style="color:orange">strips</span>''' of the construction are continued in the green border. This creates an interesting transition zone and the entire site (structure, vegetation and pathways) work as one organism. To strengthen the idea of one organism the architectonic detailing of the strips (the structural strips, the footpath and the vegetation) is crucial. This architectonic detailing is for example LED lighting in the upper and under surface of the construction, to give the structure its linear shape, also when it's dark. The used materials in the vegetation, pathways and construction surface are chosen to enlarge the feeling of linearity, continuity and one organism.

The '''<span style="color:orange">path system</span>''' is based on an algorithmic system connecting the user output to the structure input. When a user adds a new space the algorithm will check if the space is connected to a pathway. When this is not the case the algorithm will then create a new path directly on the right side of the space. Other users can then add their own spaces to this created path.
+
[[File:birdie.jpg|760px|left]]
  
In the case when two activities/spaces would like to link, but there is a pathway in between the two, the following will happen: the two spaces will merge together and become one space. The pathway then moves his way around the newly formed space. This is also demonstrated in the drawing on the left.

When there are no more activities linked to a pathway, the path will disappear and make place for new spaces.

CONCEPT

Site01.gif


The architectural concept has the following lines of action:

ORIENTATION:

- the activities are oriented towards the inner site for protection against traffic noise

- the strips follow this line of orientation for structural feasibility - the arches span the width of the site

CONNECTIONS:

- the placement of the strips was determined by the main movement lines in the site and shortcuts - from BK-City to Science Center

- the structure extends towards the northern border to form a pedestrian bridge that connects the site and BK-City to the Science Center and Botanical Gardens

TRANSITIONS:

-the structure is set back from the main street-line to create a porous border of vegetation that protects against noise traffic and creates a transitional zone between the street pavement and the site


Strip concept

Path system concept

The path system manages the path infrastructure on the site. It creates short-cuts through the site to the other surroundings and allows access to the activities in the site. The system has the following functionality:

- check if new activity is connected to a path

- if not then create a new path on the right patch of new activity

- if two activities are linking then merge activities and move path to the right of the rightmost activity

Location owner

drs Ronald Kuil, TU Delft Facility Management:
Spacebooks concept is in line with the ambitions of the university. Making Spacebook the direct link between the surrounding buildings, TU Delft sees a lot of potential in the location.
