2nd Project: The Third Skin: Breathing Architecture
Project Background
Bangkok 2020
Temperature have increased
Sea temperature have increased
Sulfate aerosols have increased
Carbon pollution have increased
Assignment
The Third Skin
Buildings are our third skin. To survive we need shelter from the elements using the three skins. The first is provided by our own skin, the second by layer of clothes and the third is building.
Despite the changed cultural, economic, building technological and energetic parameters, the principal task of architecture is still to create a comfortable “shelter”. In other words, the fundamental aim of building is to protect people from external climate conditions, such as intensive solar radiation, extreme temperatures, precipitation and wind. The building skin is the primary subsystem to prevail the external conditions that can be influenced and regulate to meet the comfort of the user inside the building.
This project student are asked to reevaluate and transform the design of Bangkok Book Park project by address the following question,
1. Function: What is the practical purpose of the building skin?
2. Construction: What are the elements/ components of the building skin and how are these elements assembled into a whole?
3. Form: What does the building skin look like?
4. Ecology: What is the energy consumption of the building skin?
Taking the whole existing Mochit outdoor park and ride lots, The Third Skin will investigate the relationship of building skin as a separating and linking element between inside and outside: reflections on function of the building skin. Students are specifically asked to re-enclose the building from the preceding assignment. Technical necessities are considered, such as the function of building skin as a protective skin, a membrane defending a building from undesirable environmental conditions.
