Workplace_Futures_Week_5
This is just a preliminary program and ratio diagram I developed for a presentation last week it needs some alterations but you can get a general idea of the interior fabric, circulation routes, air circulation, entrance/exits and the way the sun enters the building.
Also a video i created to show the shadows cast around the site giving me valiable information on where to place the specific uses within my building.
Paimio Tuberculosis Sanitorium Alvar Aalto, 1929
Paimio’s design stands apart from that of many other medical instutions due to Aalto’s attention to detail and his considerations of how the space would
be used by its occupants. This is one of the first examples of enviroments being shaped by the user, architects and planners for years to come will use this technique to create enviroments which the user can react to, spend time in and most inportantly feel comfortable in.
The basic layout of the building is of three bars, splayed out
at angles to one another and connected at the center. Aalto had
seen the same scheme at work in another tuberculosis sanatorium
at Zonnestraal, and he adapted it for his design. The first bar contained
patient housing and nursing facilities, the second a cafeteria,
and the third services.
