Converted Hierarchy

Description: This was a student project by Young Joon Chung for Bart Overly's ARCH 241 course, Autumn 2007. The rest stop project started with re-connecting the disconnected running path. By creating the path, I thought of creating other paths along it will be giving the project richness. I also wanted to protect the walkers and runners in the path from cars and trucks. So I put the walking path at the top of the whole, I put others at the lower position in the sequence of running and biking paths. In the process of building path, I could get the huge space inside; I made it as a shelter/playground. It plays a role as a picnic area and it can also be a shelter in emergency. I also created the parking lots with the notion of 'converted hierarchy'. I give more benefit to the smaller cars or bikes, by placing it closer to the giant shelter space. - Young Joon Chung This work is a part of the online collections of the Knowlton School of Architecture Student Archives, The Ohio State University. It is part of an effort to make accessible student work ranging from the first student that graduated from the program in 1903 to the present. The effort to preserve and digitize drawings in the Student Archives was sponsored in part by the Graham Foundation.
