Deafscale: A Project for Gallaudet University
.
Deafscale proposes a gateway for Gallaudet University in Washington, D.C. Gallaudet is the most important institution specialized in the deaf and hard of hearing community in the Unites States and a world leader in deaf-related research. Rethinking the segregational functionalist masterplan of the University, the project fosters the clashing of public, institutional and private programs in order to create an exchange between the University and the surrounding urban fabric. The edifice hosts the planned expansion of the institution into a subtracted whole, with a new porous relationship of the campus with the city.
