NON-SECURE PLACEMENT HOME

NON-SECURE PLACEMENT HOME The project was to design a Non Secure Placement home in Brooklyn, New York, for 12 children between the ages of 10 and 17 years. In order for the children to function in a healthy manner in society the home needs to afford them the time to grow within themselves and as port of o com- munity. BOUNDARIES THROUGH SPACE The concept for the project is "The Privacy Continuum - Explor- ing boundaries through interior space". The concept is implemented through the design of movable screens operating on two systems. Through movement and place- ment, the screens are able to provide a transparency continuum between spaces. From very transparent to very opaque the spaces range in function and guide its occupants from most public to most private. I EFTA00282717
