Hatha Yoga Center for Wellness

The Hatha Yoga Center for Wellness was conceptually designed in Downtown Baton Rouge to inspire a community of Yogis to ignite and expand their practice. The spatial interaction of the physical building with its yoga practitioners would provide a chaotic space in which challenging yoga practice could occur. The main idea was this: as yogis become more centered and grounded in their practice, they are brought to new, more difficult chaotic spaces to practice in.

This was my 5th year project in architecture school. It continues to inspire my design process.

Drawings and Images

I kept a drawing notebook throughout the semester where I kept building sketches and concepts. Below is a sampling of pages from my notebook along with models and CAD drawings.

Process

This project was created over a full semester. It started as a space mapping exercise and ended with a conceptual building form.
