• multiple paths/columns adds redundant strength• a system is only as good as its connections • failure is immanent when horizontal member is comprised• with each removal, something is in fact lost.
• redundancy is dependant on conditions of addition and subtraction• subtraction for addition: tools removes material in order to join • guided paths travel parallel to guide path of least resistance• unguided paths are undetermined until reading edge or guide

Network Conclusions across Market and Model tests:
• flowrate(ofcustomers)haveadirectcorrelationtothenode(stall)growth(numberofcustomers).
• nodes that engages the senses will attract more customers• location and function of a node will affect the success of
surrounding nodes.• the pauses caused by people can create new pathway in
the market• when the moving circulation approaches the paused area,
the circulation tends to bend away from it or gets trapped by it’s effect
• areas with a history of pauses will continuously repeat itself

Nodes
What is a node? How do you create a new path and make others fails?What is an obstruction?

Design IdeaLoop 2 networks
Revised Question:
What are the bare essentials in a network?Using a minimum set of components: two paths and node, explore a set of essential relationships.

Multi-National City: New York
Architects: Martin/Baxi Architects
Location: New York City, World Trade Centre Site
• Proposal for the World Trade Centre competition in 2003.
• A memorial for the victims of the 9/11 World Trade Centre event.
Concept:
• The design increased the total built area of the site from 15 million square foot to 24 million square foot.
• The height of each floor varied algorithmically to represent a barcode-like section.
• The total height of the new towers matched the height of the original tow-ers of 1360 feet. At the top of this tripod supported a stack of 20 ground zero sites. With a park on top.
• Ground:
o At the street level, spirals ramps at the foot of each tower would descend in the massive parking lots.
o Looking up for the ground at the hovering surface above, one would find the foot prints of the original tower which are formed by two upside-down voids. The glow of this horizontal surface framed the original locations of where the towers used to be.
• The Vortices
o Shooting through the centre of each tower is a cylindrical, structural void, a hole instead of an atrium that opened to the sky.
o Around its perimeter are glass elevators that would travel from the garage, PATH. and subway to the sky lobby.
o From there commuters, tourist, shoppers, and residents could trav-el to other floors or up to the park above.

Parc de la Villette
Architect: Berbard Tschumi Architects (BTA)
Location: Paris. 125 acres(55 hectares) Quai de I’Oise x Boulevard Périplhérique
• Parc de la Villette is located on the largest parks in Paris.
• A manifestation of Tschumi’s writing and theory on architectural deconstruc-tivism focused on space, movement, and event.
Concept,
•
• The follies (nodes) work together to navigate the user through the parks area.
• The bright red cladding allows the user identify their placement on the landscape and used to unify their relationship. However, each of the follies function differently.
• The components are organized and linked together by a grid and sometimes physically tied together by bridges and structure.
• While some follies are not physically attached to each other, they still achieve invisible links.
• Circulation is both determined and arbitrary.
o Although tied together by the parks walkway, the curious look-ing follies not only draws circulation to them, but around and within them too.
