In this second attempt, the components of the former exercise have been recombined with a new logic. The space does not need to follow its original structure. The structure, repetitive and impersonal, orthogonal and proportional, is new substituted by two different approaches.
VENDING CORRIDOR
In her virtual kitchen the corridor is built in term of the vending machine.
The architectonic components of the corridor, such as modular ceiling, office recessed radiance fluorescent lamps, office carpet, wall cladding, doors and partitions, are relocated using the storage structure of a common spring tray based vending machine (rombo 36 snack and Bevmax 45)
The vending corridor is a self-service of industrially manufactured cheap office components. This is a metaphor of the repetitiveness, triviality and impersonal standard office corridor.
Although the spring trays' structure is also repetitive and orthogonal, the geometry of the helix (spiral) and its movement alter the position of each component for each new turn.
These ever-changing positions give us the opportunity of breaking the conventional configuration of the corridor components and a spatial reconfiguration mixing different structures and components.
The hybridization is built in different levels:
Activity: chat (socialisation + shop)
Form-material: Ceramic vending tray structure + the corridor components
Typology: Corridor + Kitchen+ vending
Reality: Physical + Magical (Virtual)
The selected components are the cheapest or most common product of the following suppliers:
Carpets: Office manufacturers and Suppliers
Doors: Office partition.com
Lighting: Lighting directory.com (Thorlux and SCL)
Wall and Ceiling cladding: Proclad + Wallpanelling.ltd
