ASHEVILLE WINE

Capitalizing on an on site railway this factory for wine production was conceptualized around a linear wine making process. Where aging happens beneath and production happens above. A mechanical crane runes the length of the project, assisting in the production sequence and retrieving grapes from the railway.

The project acts as a backdrop to the river at its west and sports a publicly occupiable middle floor. Scaffold is used as a siting feature, denoting path and circulations in front and towards the river, complimenting the linear building with shadows scoring the ground planes and building facade.
