The micro-grid concept supports the idea of short blocks and frequent streets and corners to create an intricate cross-use; allowing users to function in a balanced, usable, walkable street network. Within this context in communications and multiple adjacency studies and diagrams, I was able to identify primary and secondary work spaces. With universal design at the forefront, each configuration played with the idea of flexible spaces, transparency, and bringing natural light through the entire space. The design parti represents a meandering path through the office cityscape where visitors are encouraged to continuously interact with each other and the environment.
