Below: Underneath the site are two levels of parking. I peeled the site away from all six building at B1 and B2 building entries to allow for both natural daylight to penetrate down for wayfinding as well as to eliminate mechanical ventilation of the garage. The six buildings then appear to“float” with each ground level entry being, literally, a bridge. Lighting designers furthered this with evening lighting around the edges of the ground openings.
