Entrance to Entrance
Fall 2021

Collabrator: Aanya Arora

Each model is a street section, and exhibits the entrance to entrance conditions of buildings of varied typologies, such as residential, commercial and community.

Accessible and inaccessible spaces are explored through analysing the visual and physical characteristics of urban elements, such as the height and materiality of fences, orientation of stairs and setback from the sidewalk. Accessible spaces are defined with transparent material and characterised as walkable, pedestrian friendly spaces, regardless of it being public or private property. Inaccessible spaces are materialised with concrete and considered spaces which pedestrians can not enter due to a physical or intangible barrier.

Yellow, which is universally used to mark boundaries on roads and transport, is employed here to indicate the official threshold between public and private property. The boundary between public and private space is blurred.
