DESIGN INTENT: SEQUENTIAL SPATIAL NARRATIVE
“To tell a story metaphorically representing a plot narrative in literature and its phenomena of personal emotional escapism, experienced and spatially articulated through sequence.”
PROCESS . Intent Diagram & Statement of Intent, what I wanted to achieve spatially through use of a spatial literary metaphor, a meaningful experience.
VEHICLE: bookstore/ consignment shop
HOW CAN NARRATIVE CREATE A MORE MEANINGFUL RETAIL EXPERIENCE?

CONCEPT . My intent of Sequential Spatial Narrative was inspired by literature, it prompted me to explore how space as a metaphor for conflict & climax could emulate & enhance the phenomena of emotional escapism that we experience when reading, physically. This interest developed into a 5- part narrative sequence that one embarks on through the space: 1 introduction, 2 series of events, 3 conflict, 4 series of events, & 5 climax, as one would find in a novel. The literary metaphor was driven by the duality of “conflict” & “climax” & what happens in between them, defined as “ambiguity,” these became the spatial language as well as the symbolic vertical relationship between the 3 floors, climax as “heaven,” conflict as “hell.” I decided the best vehicle would be a bookstore/consignment shop- its function & objects have story of their own, interweaving with the narrative.

IS THERE A RELATIONSHIPBETWEEN SPACE & LITERATURE?
FINAL DESIGN . Longitudinal Section & Floor plans showing vertical relationship between climax, ambiguity, conflict, & the 5-part narrative sequence.
PROCESS . Spatial Qualifiers, finding the commonalities between literature & space, inspired by the dual symbolism in Jane Eyre.
LITERATURE:

SPACE: “I faced the wreck of the chestnut-tree; it stood up black and riven: the trunk, split down the centre, gaped ghastly … their great boughs on each side were dead, and next winter’s tempests would be sure to fell one or both to earth: as yet, however, they might be said to form one tree—a ruin, but an entire ruin.” - From Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte

PROCESS . I was inspired by Jane Eyre & the duality in the book. When she & Rochester express their mutual love, lightning strikes a tree, splitting it in half- an omen of an ill-fated relationship, or symbolic of two halves of a whole? I researched experiential projects & developed my list of qualifiers from the commalities I found between literature & narrative space, using them to enhance the function & experience of my bookstore.
Using the 5-part sequence & these qualifiers, I started to identify the emotion & symbolism of each floor & how the books themselves would contribute to the story. The conflict would be in consigning, reading as the ulitmate climax, & ambiguity as decision/search, books would become also part of the design & spatial language. Light vs. dark, order vs. disorder, etc.
C a p s t o n e T h e s i s2.
PROCESS . Concept & Spatial Models, having two polarities bridged in some manner to create a journey or meaning...duality. Conflict to ambiguity to climax.

BECOMESEQUENTIALSPATIALNARRATIVE...
Early concept models above express the experience of a spatial narrative & duality. Two parallels with an uncertain journey (ambiguity) between them make the space an engaging discovery.
The books are integral to the spatial story in function & design, displayed in accordance with the experience. The gold columns from CLIMAX pierce downward & the dark, carved columns penetrating upward from CONFLICT show that AMBIGUITY is uncertain, where two worlds collide, especially near the openings where books are suspended between the two column types. In AMBIGUITY, as broken arches form walls & angle like turning pages, hidden books are found. In CLIMAX, they are treasured antiquities, free from the architecture, encircling the opening, looking down to CONFLICT, where books form walls.

The Spatial Intervention Model/ SD Phase attempted to combine the feeling of my study models & 5-part sequence into the actual space. This literal sculpture helped me refine the spatial language into reality. The sculpture would eventually be erased, leaving behind its inherent qualities, the essence of the journey between AMBIGUITY, CONFLICT, & CLIMAX & my 5-part sequence. I defined my color scheme & aesthetic integrity, & created the openings in the floors of CLIMAX & AMBIGUITY that would act as the focal of the space, the moment where two polarities exist simultaneously. One experiences uncertainty, like a character in a novel.
AMBIGUITY, searching for books, is a metaphor for unfolding events, as consigning a precious book in CONFLICT symbolically represents a literary conflict.

S E Q U E N T I A L S P A T I A L N A R R A T I V E
PROCESS . Design Development, the parti model became spatial language, DD phase was successful in CONFLICT & CLIMAX, AMBIGUITY was too straightforward.
FINAL DESIGN . Renderings, the stairs representing the moment of decision between floors, & the Tearoom/Reading Space, the CLIMAX of the spatial story.

Instead of relying on a sculpture, I needed to finalize the spatial language, the parti model above expressed thoroughly the aesthetics & emotions I wanted to communicate with CLIMAX, AMBIGUITY, & CONFLICT. My DD scheme wasn’t completely successful, AMBIGUITY was too straight-forward, the journey didn’t unfold. I needed to study the proportions, colors, & inherent qualities of the parti model & add them to my design so that the middle floor truly was a journeybetween polarities, I hid the books, even under glass flooring, created a grey, nondescript palette, & faced shelves backwards.
The parti model led me to a heavenly, colorful pavillion-like CLIMAX, an AMBIGUITY space very much in limbo, & a CONFLICT space contrastingly, heavy & dark, books seemingly excavated from the walls.

CONFLICT
AMBIGUITY
CLIMAX
DESIGN . I studied my parti model, reconciling how CLIMAX, AMBIGUITY, & CONFLICT could be symbolic, yet functional spaces. The spatial narrative combines with a functional story, books as a nostalgic treasure. The true climax of the space, is reading in the tea room. Antiquities surround the opening in the pavillion-like space, lit by a floating panel, glass columns, colored baubles & an oculus. The journey through the space is the search for books, obscured at first, suspended, faced backwards in vast greyness. Like a protagonist, one must choose to buy, read, or consign, the stairs are a journey upward to heaven, or down to hell. The conflict lies in the act of selling a book. The truest essence of the space is seen in the moment on the glass u-turn, looking upward through a circular opening into climax as light glows while beneath you, the glass floor floats on the foreboding conflict space.
PROCESS . Final Design, overlaying the 5-part sequence on the final design & spatial language, the completed story & marrying of concept & function.
