INTERACTION THROUGH TRANSFER

SPEARMAN, JOEL

Abstract Details

2007, MARCH, University of Cincinnati, Design, Architecture, Art and Planning : Architecture (Master of).
Connection between two objects is rarely seen as important as the objects connected, serving only as a means of utility and function. A city may be remembered for its destinations, but the connecting spaces determine the character of the city. An impersonal connection isolates individuals in a city denying a personality and identity to the city and individual. The car has created this isolation by allowing urban sprawl, and by limiting interaction between people. A single architectural or urban design project cannot stop urban sprawl, and a city will never stop outward growth. Isolation, addressed locally in singular projects, encourages alternative means of transportation between destinations encouraging interaction. This thesis will study how to address and encourage interaction through connection, taking the form of connecting Third Street Promenade to the Santa Monica Pier in Santa Monica, California, locally, while addressing the relationship to greater Los Angeles.
