Resonance
TEAM: Francesco Barone, Maxime Sauce – Italian, French
a scaleless club
Resonance is an archetype of a club not belonging to specific scales or places. A sound system in a room, a skyscraper of stacked ballrooms in a city or a dancing space of the size of a planet. It relates to its surrounding throughout the founding element of dance: the sound.
Coming from the context, the sound pierces the original module. Hence, the shape of the module is altered in order to amplify and enhance the resonance. The obtained void engages a spatial dialogue with the context, each time suggesting an answer to its specific conditions. The module is finally replicated in each orientation, affirming its absoluteness in the space.
While the envelope represents a fixed component, the greatest freedom is given to the organization of the clubs. Each module performs as a separate universe while being related to the others by the connecting element of the grid: a coordinates reference system that comes from the context and puts in relation the dancing spaces.
With the assumption that dancing is not bound to a specific place, time or dimension, we propose a scaleless architectural prototype that transcends all those restrictions and aims to be a universal experience for all mankind.
