Facade Study
inner courtyard
When large enough, the inside of a city block can be a separate urban space with its own atmosphere and it’s own set of spatial hierarchies. A kind of space, which allows for a more immediate mixture of private and public. A space where the formal constraints are less strict. A space that allows a more expressive articulation of the facade. Just like this visualization of my last sketch with protruding tongue-like balconies.
