The project intervenes in a residual industrial space with fuel bunkers, above- and below-grade piping, drainage pits, fences, and remnant machinery. You are not welcome here, merely tolerated. If you come after sundown, a police car is likely on its way to collect you. In the face of this stark, unwelcoming condition, the design proposal recasts the fuel bunkers as concert venues and overlays a new circulation system on the site, with lighting fixtures to guide and encourage the visitor to brave the elevated highways and explore this forbidden land. Trespass is an attempt at providing the wandering pedestrian with a setting for intense, highly memorable experiences outside their everyday routine.
