This is my attempt to start designing the building with the Brooklyn site in mind. The entry level will be on street level, the private functions of the site will take place under ground level but the site will be excavated to allow for natural light even in these sub-levels, and the semi-private functions will take place above ground level. I also tried to diagram how the flow of circulation would be handled, one of the reasons for the sub level was to allow for a clear circulation path between each private/semi-private level and the public ground level. Proportions of these individual functions will have to be tweaked, but the location and relationships between functions are close to final in my opinion. I another reason of the sloping excavation will be to utilize the site's natural slope of the land, which I feel will help in deciding the amount of vertical circulation I would need.
