Typologies Assignment

1.  Which building typology you are researching?
A- I am researching 2 typologies: Wellness centers and Community Center
               2.  Why are you researching this building typology?
           There is a lot missing in the area i believe if there was a plaza which had everything the average person would need such as a center for recreation activity , clinic, barbershop and spa they wouldn't have to travel far to satisfy certain needs.
               3.  What is the specialty of this building type you would like to research i.e.   museum for dance, school for digital media… the specialty is to have something for everyone. what ever the community doesn't have will be at this place.
               4.  What are the examples that you will be researching… list the examples, location and architect  (10 examples) View the slides
               5.  What are you goals for working with this building type? My goal is to bring back the view of Brooklyn and to utilize the space to its community needs.
               6.  What are the program elements that you see included at this point in your building? (may  evolve once more research is done)
Basketball court Pool Afterschool center 
Barber shop. Spa




Clinic

  2. Since we are both going to be incorporating green roof systems I would look into how they designed the roof in Karakida community center and see what systems they put in place so they can both maintain the green roof without damaging the building with leaks.
