THE BOX
FOURTH YEAR | FALL 2019
BIG BOX STORE RE-PURPOSE MULTI-USE GROUP PROJECT
​
TALLAHASSEE, FL
​
DURATION : 4 WEEKS
DESCRIPTION :
​
The inspiration for The Box design will take the direction of blurring boundaries. By creating a mixed-use zone, the site sparks engagement of intergenerationalism. Indoor and outdoor spaces will be blended to create a mirrored, divergent reality of differential environments. Variations of geometric forms emphasize natural motifs, while interactive spaces give purpose to an adaptive reuse space. Social, physical and psychological wellness will prosper in a dynamic yet neutral expanse. Intermingling generations within a built environment creates the overall envision of blurring boundaries.
GOALS
-
To create an environment that EMBRACES ENGAGEMENT amongst all generations.
-
Provide a community hub that increases WELLNESS in the Tallahassee area.
-
Enforce HEALTHY HABITS by creating a space to support physical, social and mental wellness.
-
Blur boundaries by incorporating interesting WAYFINDING and PATHWAYS.
SOLUTION STATEMENT
Though the city of Tallahassee has many community events, a wholesome mixed-use communal building is not in its assets. The only space to accommodate a community of all ages has been the YMCA but it was permanently closed in 2016 due to financial hardships. The importance of a mixed-use facility is the community factor. Bringing different activities that benefit different types of wellness together, bring people of different interests together under one roof. The proposed design solution for the vacant Toys-R-Us in Tallahassee, FL provokes an effort for community interaction in one central area for all ages. Through the addition of recreational hot spots such as a brewery, coffee lounge, gym, jungle gym and an interior multi-purpose courtyard, intergenerationalism, social interaction and physical wellness will be implemented to account for users of all ages and abilities. The Box will allow multiple industries to increase revenue, the Brass Tap recently closed their CollegeTown location and could occupy the microbrewery space, in a singular location as a variety of businesses tie together to create a unified community.
FLOOR PLANS
ELEVATIONS
As you enter The Box you are greeted by reception and a smoothie bar. At reception, visitors have the opportunity to learn about the facility and all it has to offer.
As a feature accent wall in the crossfit gym, pops of color enhance the neutral palette through out the space. Plenty of gym equipment such as, dumbells, squat racks, pull and push machines as well as ellipticals and treadmills are offered in the space.
RENDERINGS
Located directly adjacent to the micro-brewery, the beer garden is introduced with an ADA ramp for wheelchair accessibility for all ages to experience the lively outdoor space.
In the multi-use space, the addition of a work lounge offers an area for those who prefer a quiet, serene space to sit down for coffee, work, or simply relax.
Serving as a corridor between all major spaces, the interior courtyard features bright tones and natural elements as skylights shine down on prospering trees and plant life.
The micro-brewery allows its users to gather in one central area in a fun and jovial atmosphere. Multiple seating arrangements are offered as well as free standing space. A direct view to the additional seating above draws the eye up throughout the space while highlighting the industrial elements the space displays. The micro-brewery is to serve standard bar food and appetizers seeking an American style menu.
