Submission #382 | Eric Peters and Alex Storz: Institute for Film — “Through investigations of formal interpretations of cinematic terminology, we developed a proposal for an Institute for Film, located in downtown Fort Wayne, Indiana. The film's experience at its core is storytelling. Through the use of perspectival shifts and conceal/reveal, plots and subplots unfold before you. As we combined such cinematic elements, our concept emerged as “Suspension of Disbelief.”
Submission #329 | Dan Whelan: Song of the Sea — “The proposed chapel rests on the foundations of the restored Pessegueiro island fort - Portugal, its simple white brick form providing a clear focus point from the main coastline. The restored fort provides a space of transition between the natural landscape and the inner space of the chapel while providing panoramic views across the entire site. Within the chapel spaces are enclosed, intimate and spiritual in nature, inviting visitors to take a moment for introspection and quiet contemplation.”
Andres Roncal: Grand Hall Freshman Dormitory — "The proposed program is meant to burst the bubble in which Pratt students are forced to live in and give public space back to the landscape of the city. By mapping the public parks around the area it became evident that there were only two public parks available to the immediate community. Fort Green Public Park and Pratt Institute's Sculpture Park; the latter gated and limited to no public access. This segregation was reflected in the lack of understanding for the students to their surroundings which then increased the naive self exposure to crime in the area."
