75/85 Torus | Student Dormitory at i75/85
|
A set of L-shape modular blocks combine in various ways to produce a rich set of configurations in planar and sectional space. These configurations are readily translated in nested courtyard schemes at various scales ranging from the unit itself to the complete assembly. The selected scheme from the housing grammar is developed above the 75/85 interstate that bounds the GT campus to provide a visual entry to the campus at North street and a symbolic presence of the institution at the highway below. The programmatic core of the project consists of graduate housing for GT students along with community space and retail at the ground floor. The GT housing requirements include 107 units to accommodate 238 beds in various arrangements of one-, two-, three- and four-beds per room at a total area of 90,000 sq.ft.
