THE GRACEFULLY ARCHED SPACES OF WEST BEAT SET A SCULPTURAL SETTING THAT INVITES RESIDENTS, LOCALS AND THE PUBLIC TO
DISCOVER THIS NEW PUBLIC HUB AND MAKE IT THEIR OWN. THIS SUPER SPACE ALTERNATES IN FUNCTION, HOSTING WORKSPACES,
HOSPITALITY VENUES, PERFORMANCES, CONCERTS AND MORE. WHAT SUPPORTS THIS FLEXIBILITY OF USE, ALSO FOR THE FUTURE, ARE VAST
AREAS OF OPEN FLOOR SPACE CREATED BY THE HIGH ARCHED STRUCTURES.
DIVERSE TYPES OF OPEN AND INTIMATE SPACES ARE SHAPED BY THE NETWORK OF DIFFERENT SIZED ARCHES
AND DIFFERENCES IN FLOOR HEIGHT. ADDITIONALLY, THE ARCHES ARE A VISUAL AND STRUCTURAL
TRANSITION BETWEEN THE BASEMENT CAR PARKING PARK, WITH ITS WIDE SPANS, AND THE 150
DWELLINGS ABOVE THE SUPER SPACE. GENEROUS ARCHES IN THE FACADE FRAME HIGHLIGHT THE
CULTURAL ACTIVITIES WITHIN , WITH THE LARGEST ARCHES POSITIONED AT THE CORNER AS AN
INVITING GESTURE ON THIS PROMINENT ADDRESS
PROS:
FOR WEST BEAT TO BECOME A SOCIAL DESTINATION, THE ARCHITECTURE NEEDS TO MAKE A MARK;
SUCH A VAST ARCHED PUBLIC SPACE CREATES WOW FACTOR WE IMAGINEDCONS: LACK OF LANDSCAPING
