Portfolio: Street Level Plan

This is the street level floor plan... with entrances from Boylston and Dartmouth streets.. both entrances are on axes which join at a central cashier/information area which is located partially beneath the 2nd level product floor and partially within the double height main entry space. In terms of concept I am most pleased by the seating plaza/water feature and the way that it exists both within the building and outside of it separated only by a transparent glass curtain wall... this water/seating area was a strong element in my initial sketches in an attempt to provide pedestrians and shoppers with a gathering place with both views of Copley square and/or apple product displays.... I think that it has the potential to be a very desireable destination point...
