When it comes to circulation the subject of my project Oscar
Niemeyer has very diverse ways to achieve it.
In vertical
circulation he uses a lot of ramps because he's really interest in making a
recognition of the spaces and a ramp gives much more of a slow way to enjoy the
amazing spaces that he creates.
It's a much more
sutil way to make the transtition of one place to another
In horizontal circulation i believe he enphasizes
in directness because he's circulation plan is amazing and it works great in
any direction, it's also very adequate in size and the changes in the level are
clearly expressed. The circulation of his buildings are not randomly for people
to go walking wherever they want, he makes the building guide
This last picture
really wow me because of the use of the ramp in the centre that is kind of
mixed with the others when you first see the space, but then you realize that
is the centre of all the space and the element of rotation in the building, is
a great example of how to make circulation sutil and a part of the building as
well
In general i think
niemeyer preffers horizontal circulation because it gives a longer tour of the
buildings, in this last example we can see that is a vertical building but the
main circulation point, the first floor, is a walk with complete horizontal circulation
for a better apretiation of space.
