PROJECT STATEMENT

The Endless Street provides an enclosure for urban neighbourhood interaction. Through the loop circulation without a dead end, the users can experience a continuous flow and ambience.

The urban strategy deals with a search for a loop with a whole circulation through all programs. 

Between different programs are transitional spaces with vegetation and open areas for recreation, leisure or reading. The photography hub can be enhanced by increased views within the loop as well as interesting views towards voids in the neighbourhood. 

The structure provides cantilever for the spaces inside as well as a medium for growing vegetation which facilitates the air ventilation and nice scent.
