Organization Flashcards
combines elements of both centralized
and linear organizations
RADIAL ORGANIZATIONS
Normally composed of a number of spaces which are related to one another by function, proximity, and a path of movement
Organization of form and space
consists of a dominant central space from which a number of linear organizations extend in a radial manner.
RADIAL ORGANIZATIONS
A space may be contained within the volume of a larger space
Space within a space
an extroverted plan that reaches out to its context.
RADIAL ORGANIZATIONS
The larger, enveloping space serves as a three dimensional feel for the smaller space contained within it
Space within a space
In space within the space, what is the result of a form oriented in a different manner?
Higher attention value
Through it, a property with a radial organization can extend and attach itself to specific elements or features of its site.
Linear Arms
In space within the space, what is the result of differing forms from the enveloping space
Strengthen its image
The field of a space may overlap the volume of another space
Interlocking spaces
Two spaces may abut each other or share a common border
Adjacent spaces
the form of the central space of a radial organization
Regular
Allows each space to be clearly defined and to respond each in its own way, to specific functional or symbolic
requirements.
Adjacent Spaces
The degree of visual and spatial continuity that occurs
between two adjacent spaces depends on
the nature of
the plane that both separates and binds them together.
Limit visual and physical access between two adjacent
spaces
Adjacent Spaces
linear armslength and maintain the regularity of a radial organization’s overall form?
What may be similar to one another in form and
Freestanding plane in a single volume of space.
Adjacent Spaces
Row of columns that allows a high degree of visual and
spatial continuity
Adjacent Spaces
Merely implied with a change in level or a contrast in surface
material or texture between the two spaces.
Adjacent Spaces
Two spaces may rely on an intermediary
space for their relationship.
Spaces Linked by a
Common Space
an example of a radial organization
pinwheel pattern
The visual and spatial relationship between the two
spaces depends on the nature of the third space with
which they share a common bond.
Spaces Linked by a
Common Space
The intermediate space can differ in blank and blank
from the two spaces to express its linking function
form and orientation
A type of radial organization where the linear arms of the
organization extend from the sides of a square or
rectangular central space
pinwheel pattern
Equivalent in size and shape and form a
linear sequence of spaces
Spaces Linked by a Common Space
Requirements for spaces
- specific
- flexible in use and can be freely manipulated
- are singular and unique in their function or significance
- have similar functions and can be grouped into a functional cluster or repeated in a linear sequence
- require exterior exposure for light, ventilation, outlook, or access to outdoor spaces
- segregated for privacy
*easily accessible
This arrangement results in a dynamic pattern that visually suggests a rotational movement about the central space
pinwheel pattern
Relies on physical proximity to relate its spaces to one another.
CLUSTERED ORGANIZATIONS
Demands of the building program
-functional proximities
* dimensional requirements
* hierarchical classification of spaces
* requirements for access, light, or view
It often consists of repetitive, cellular spaces that have similar functions and share a common visual trait such as shape or orientation.
CLUSTERED ORGANIZATIONS
Can also accept within its composition spaces that are dissimilar in size, form, and function, but related to one another by proximity or a visual ordering device such as symmetry or an axis.
CLUSTERED ORGANIZATIONS
An organization where the form is flexible and can accept growth and change readily without affecting its character
CLUSTERED ORGANIZATIONS
A central, dominant space about which a number of secondary spaces are grouped
Centralized Organization
its pattern does not originate from a rigid geometrical concept
CLUSTERED ORGANIZATIONS
A linear sequence of repetitive spaces
Linear Organization
A central space from which linear organizations of space extend in a radial manner
Radial Organization
can be organized about a point of entry into a building or along the path of movement through it.
CLUSTERED ORGANIZATIONS
Spaces grouped by proximity or the sharing of a common visual trait or relationship
Clustered Organization
Spaces organized within the field of a structural grid or other three-dimensional framework
Grid Organization
a stable, concentrated composition that
consists of a number of secondary spaces grouped around a large,
dominant, central space
A centralized organization
The spaces can also be clustered about a large defined field or volume of space
Clustered spaces
inherently non-directional,
conditions of approach and entry must be specified by the site and
the articulation of one of the secondary spaces as an entrance or
gateway
Form of a centralized organization
This organization is similar to that of a centralized organization, but it lacks the latter’s compactness and geometrical regularity.
CLUSTERED ORGANIZATIONS
Consists essentially of a series of spaces. These spaces can either
be directly related to one another or be linked through a separate and
distinct linear space.
LINEAR ORGANIZATIONS
can also be contained within a defined field or volume of space.
CLUSTERED ORGANIZATIONS
repetitive spaces which are alike in size, form, and
function.
LINEAR ORGANIZATIONS
express a
direction and signify movement, extension, and growth.
linear organizations
there is no inherent place of importance within the pattern of this organization
CLUSTERED ORGANIZATIONS
combines elements of both centralized
and linear organizations.
RADIAL ORGANIZATIONS
the significance of a space in a clustered orgaization must be articulated thorugh
size, form, or orientation
Relies on physical proximity to relate its spaces to one another. It often consists of repetitive, cellular spaces that have similar functions and share a common visual trait such as shape or orientation.
CLUSTERED ORGANIZATIONS
Can also accept within its composition spaces that are dissimilar in
size, form, and function, but related to one another by proximity or a
visual ordering device such as symmetry or an axis.
CLUSTERED ORGANIZATIONS
can be used to strengthen and unify
portions of a clustered organization and help articulate the importance
of a space or group of spaces within the organization
Symmetry or an axial condition
Consists of forms and spaces whose positions
in space and relationships with one another are
regulated by a three-dimensional grid pattern or
field.
GRID ORGANIZATIONS
created by two, usually perpendicular, sets of parallel lines
that establish a regular pattern of points at their intersections.
grid
Projected into the third dimension, the grid pattern is transformed into
a set of repetitive of what?
modular units of space
results from the regularity and continuity of its pattern that pervades the elements it organizes.
The organizing power of a grid
