PATHWAYS - ADAPTIVE REUSE
Student Project, 2021The building alterations for 424 Washington are inspired by Toshiko Takaezu, a ceramic artist influential in the abstract expressionist movement for her closed forms & life philosophy. Toshiko’s fluidity and dance-like motions in her art influenced a series of unique pathways to view artwork at different levels of mountainous terrain. The mysteriousness that an enclosed space can hold aims to bring back a sense of life/spirit into the building, with a hidden landscape and playful paths for discovery.
