Process: General observation Refined observation & research Sketches & brainstorming
3
Concepts: Application to existing structure Exposing existing structure Completely new structure
4
Application Concept: Movement The intersection is constantly moving. It is also a very urban area, with few pedestrians, and many commercial destinations. Design Proposal: A translucent polymer to allow lighting, as well as a free-formability in order to emphasize movement.
5
Application Concept: Blood Flow Thinking of the city and its streets as a whole, the idea of blood cells moving through veins in the body can be compared. A large fundamental difference with this is, however, that the circulatory system of the body does not intersect, but actually loops. Design Proposal: To be included in a translucent polymer design, tunnels can be designed with undulating sides for pedestrians to walk through and be safe from traffic.

Exposure Concept: Structural Emphasis Existing under-bridge support consists of large girders and lateral cross-bracing, exposed mechanical conduit, minimal lighting, steel decking, and concrete columns. The existing design can be utilized and accentuated with strategic lighting. Design Proposal: A variety of lighting options, including changes in color, intensity and direction, in order to enhance the design potential that is already there.

Remodel Concept: Connection. Emphasis is placed on nodes (points), areas, paths. A study analyzing the aforementioned spaces has been conducted in attempts to realize the relationships that exist between them. The rewards from completing such a study may unfold prospective design possibilities, or generate more richly developed key concepts for further extrapolation. Design Proposal: A direct offshoot of the study diagrams is a proposed bridge that analyzes the connections previously uncovered and attempts to organize these connections in a way that indulges all using parties involved.
