PROCESS AND IMAGE: INTEGRATING RATIONALITY AND SENSUALITY IN THE DESIGN OF A CHOCOLATE FACTORY

ASCHLIMAN, SARA LYNNE

Abstract Details

2003, MARCH, University of Cincinnati, Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning : Architecture.
Industrial architecture typically values efficiency over sensation, therefore time and again in factory design, little attempt is made to reconcile the pragmatic nature of the manufacturing process with the often expressive character of the goods produced. This thesis negotiates the rift between process and image in the manufacturing facilities for one such product – chocolate. The design for this chocolate factory is rooted in the examination of the building type – the rational factory; appreciation of the particular character of the product to be manufactured – sensual chocolate; and analysis of case studies in which these polemic properties peacefully co-exist – as in the Barcelona Pavilion and Chapel Guell.
