PlayHouse - attempt 1
Strategy One - Physically and visually engaging spaces (maybe "engaging" should be "interactive" instead? - a focus on experience through actions
So, Tactic One - create physically engaging spaces through use of different scales, levels, and forms (Figure 1)
Figure 1 - first attempt internal massing (no exterior walls ....yet)
Program spaces are constant - as per rules established in previous post... play opportunities happen in the pink spaces
Strategy Two - create social spaces by establish a play-rhythm that engages/interacts with people inside/outside; Tactic Two - increase connection to outside, architecture invites occupants to play (working on this now...)
Strategy Three - open-ended non-linear spaces; Tactic Three - more than two ways to get to each space (choice and options)
SITE:
A successful public park in downtown Toronto. Trinity Bellwoods Park has underdesigned spaces which are open to interpretation and use. Activity spaces emerge based on user engagement - house as an extension of the park. Park as open-ended play; house as game (structured play)
