GRID-X

The design intent was to create a space that balances the dynamics of a gaming centre and the concept of parametrism. The plot sits within 5 acres of land in boat club, Adyar. The form was developed by reinterpreting the form of a playstation controller created through an algorithmic process using the geometry of the different elements of the controller and the flow of the form itself as the parameters. The design features the diamond arranged triangle, circle, X, square and use these to demonstrate the dramatic range of design possibilities when clubbed with parametric algorithm. A funnel like fluidic structure is the focal point located at the circulation core connecting all the different spaces inspired by the power button on the gaming controller. The spaces spread around the core like the hand grip on the controller.
