Our first efforts at optimum placement of Where relation to context is judged to 3. The third approach is appropriate functions or spaces on the site in response be more important than internal func- where the project is particularly large to contextual pressures may involve any of tional efficiency, we may take each with several site components.

Here we three approaches. Where function is considered a more optimum zone on the site indepen- our building or buildings as wholes critical form-giving determinant than dently oftheother spaces. When all the before we can address the location of context, we may place the bubble dia- spaces have been placed including their spaces. In this approach the prin- gram on thesiteand allow thespaces to exterior spaces then we may begin to ciples and intentions are no different migrate and shift within the bubble so condense our spaces and knit them than those in the first two approaches.

The scale of the components we are relate to the appropriate site condi- manipulating on the site is simply tions. Here the connecting lines be- larger. Once our buildings are placed in tween the spaces in the bubble are zones on the site, then we may use made elastic while still remaining con- either of the first two approaches to nected to the space bubbles so that the zone the building spaces in response to functional ties are always maintained their context.

Reasonsfor locatinga building in a particu- tual analysis as a stimulant for concep- lar area of the site may involve soil bearing tualization is vital to responsible de- conditions, contours that minimize earth sign.

Too r'i? I t is important to remember that site design and building and space place- ment can involve sectional issues as we analyze long enough, we will be led to the solution. This will never happen. We must well as plan issues. As spaces down hillsides and stacking of designers we must continually work to ex- spaces in relation to contours and neigh- pand and deepen our vocabulary of ar- borhood scale are a few of the potential chitectural forms and concepts so that reasons to study the zoning of our facility there is something there to draw upon on the site in section as well as in plan.

That confidence facilitates the several ways to ascend to our building from conceptualization of site responses in de- a parking lot. These conceptual solution sign and contributes to the heuristic proc- types constitute the design vocabulary that ess of idea formulation.

In doing the con- we accumulate from reading, travel, past textual analysis and engaging the site issues projects we have designed and visiting through diagramming, we trigger design buildings. Analysis will give us the condi- response imagesfor dealing with the site. It will tell us The contextual analysis acts as a switch that we have a great view but not what to to recall the parts of our design vocab- do about it.

We must draw from our vo- ularies that apply to the site problems cabulary of design responses for the appro- priate concepts. We may graphically express our site information in plan, section, elevation, perspective, isometric or any of the other types of draw- ings available to us. The types of drawings we useshould besympathetic to thetypeof information we are recording. Some data is better expressed in plan, some in section, L L some in perspective, etc.

Normally there are two components to any site information diagram. First, we must have a referent drawing of the site to provide a context for the particular site information we want to record. Second, we must diagram the site fact itself. The referent drawing may be a simple plan of the site boundaries with bordering streets or a section through the siteshowing only theground plane.

We use these simple site drawings as frameworks for diagramming the particular site issues that we wish to express. There are two rather different postures we may assume regarding the recording of the site informa- tion over these referent drawings. J one referent drawing. The second approach segregateseach piece of site information to a separate referent drawing. This method values the expression of each issue sepa- rately so that it can be easily understood.

By dealing with each fact individually we We should begin to develop our own may be less likely to ignore something.

Where it is for us and may be used as an effective ations of any scale and is relevant to both appropriate to our situation it is perfectly graphic shorthand for documenting exterior and interior project issues.

We may permissible to use both methods within the site conditions. There are essentially analyze a region, a city, a neighborhood, a same contextual analysis. We must design the initial dia- interior space.

In some cases this information must come from others, while in other cases we may gather it directly ourselves. Sources of information may vary from city to city and from site to site. It is importantto keep in mind that for some types of data a single source w i l l suffice. This i s true primarily for quantitative or technical in- formation.

Other types of data, principally the qualitative type, may require several sources for purposes of verification. An outlineof potential information sourcesfol- lows. Location State maps may be miniaturized with only major highways and cities shown. City maps of a reasonable size can be found in most telephone books.

We only need to relate our site to major streets or landmarks. It may be helpful to purchase an aerial photograph of our site and neighborhood from an aerial survey company. These can be pro- duced at different scales and allow us to trace the neighborhood streets and facilities from the photo.

We may trace the neighborhood context from a zon- ing map which can be found in the municipal planning department or ob- tained from local blueprinting com- panies.
