T HE CONCEPTUAL DESIGN THAT I DEVELOPED IS DIRIVED FROM BOTH THE HISTORY OF THE LOCATION AND THE VARIOUS SPACES THAT THE PARK HAS, SUCH AS THE FLAG PLAZA, THE BOARDWALK, THE MINI PLAZA, AND THE PARK.
I INCLUDED VARIOUS ACCESS ENTRANCES THAT PEOPLE CAN ENTER NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE IN THE PARK. THIS CONVERGENCE OF PEOPLE FROM DIFFERENT LOCATIONS OF THE PARK REFLECTS THE MIGRATION OF MILLIONS OF PEOPLE, FROM DIFFERENT BACKGROUNDS, TO AMERICA.
THIS DESIGN INLCUDES 4 SPACES WHICH ARE, AN ART GALLERY, STUDY AREAS, A LIBRARY , OFFICE SPACES. I DECIDED TO DISTINGUISH THE 4 SPACES BASED ON THE SIZE AND THE AMOUNT OF SUNLIGHT IT RECEIVES. ALSO, I DECIDED, NOT ONLY TO KEEP THE LIBERATION STATUE WITHIN THE DESGIN, BUT I MADE ALL OF THE DESIGN PROGRAM REVOLVE AROUND IT.

T HE DESIGN OF THIS BUILDING IS INFLUENCED BY BRICK PATTERNS AND THE INTERLOCKING STRUCTURES THAT ARE LOCATED THROUGHOUT NEWARK. THE UNIT SPACES MIMICK THE PATTERN AND APPEARANCE OF TH BRICK WALLS OF MANY VINTAGE BRICK BUILDINGS WITH THEIR MATERIAL AND THEIR PETRUSION FROM THE BUILDING FASCADE. THE VARIOUS UNIT, ALL DERIVE FROM A 18’X25’ MODULAR SPACE. THERE ARE 4 MAIN SPACES THAT THE BUILDING HAS, WHICH ARE A PARKING GARAGE, RETAIL SPACE, APARTEMENT AMMENITIES, AND THE APARTMENT UNITS.

T HE PROJECT IS INSPIRED BY THE CONTRAST BETWEEN TORNDOWN BRICK BUILDINGS AND NEW MODERN GLASS STRUCTURES AROUND THE SITE. IT RETAINS THE MODULAR BRICK PATTERN, INCORPORATING MISSING PARTS TO REFLECT THE BROKEN, DECONSTRUCTED LOOK OF OLD BUILDINGS.

T HE DESIGN USES SPATIAL VOIDS IN THE BUILDINGS FLOOR PLANS TO CREATE A DYNAMIC CONTRAST BETWEEN ENCLOSED SPACES AND OUTDOOR OPEN AREAS. THE OUTDOOR OPEN AREAS, WHICH ARE THROUGHOUT THE COMPLEX, RESEMBLES MISSING BRICKS OF A BRICK WALL, WHICH ALSO BRINGS LIGHT AND OPENNESS INTO IT.
