A design charrette exploring three distinct architectural responses to car culture, hospitality, and race-day living.

 

Home Scheme

The most domestic of the three, this version reimagines the project as a courtyard house organized around refuge, gathering, and shared outdoor space. Here, the emphasis shifts from spectacle to enclosure, offering a quieter and more grounded interpretation of car-centered living.

 
 
 
 
 
 

Temple Scheme

This proposal organizes the project around the car elevator as its central architectural question. Compact and vertically efficient, the scheme takes the form of a concrete exoskeleton shaped by repetition and the interplay of archaic and modern expression, treating the automobile as both program and ceremonial object.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Paddock Scheme

Conceived as a vertical pavilion for cars, guests, and observation, this scheme combines parking, showrooms, and accommodations in a stacked sequence of terraces and viewing platforms. Culminating in a temple-like room and race-day terrace, it privileges spectacle, compact luxury, and outdoor living over conventional domestic enclosure.
