This project was initially inspired by the flexible circulation in the design for my parent’s home. The intangible and invisible design of the flow gave me a sense of freedom within the space. From a design perspective, it is important to consider what to add to the space, but it is equally valuable to question what can be removed to stimulate the potential of a space. This rational and restrained method presents the philosophy of ‘leaving blanks’ in the Eastern culture, which is to intentionally leave emptiness for people’s imagination and exploration. Similarly, modern Western architects had practices such as Le Corbusier’s Dom-Ino System and Barcelona Pavilion designed by Mies van der Rohe. Along Sauchiehall Street, it is not hard to see vacancies. To some extent, they are the blanks in the city centre. Common interventions for vacancies rely on functional reuse, like commercial offices and retail, but they might not be viable in the long term. Scholars proposed an adaptive reuse approach, a short-term transformation to accommodate alternative uses and functions (Armstrong, 2023). However, many studies have focused on the whole building reuse. There is a gap in investigating adaptive reuse at different scales of application. Therefore, the aim is to interpret vacancies as intentional blanks, to propose a non-commercial intervention as the adaptive reuse strategy at the interior scale to reactivate the vacant space, and to create a public space for people to linger and pause, and see how it influences the pedestrian rhythm of linear journeys on the high street. Future studies could expand this project to a systematic network of public spaces intertwined in the city to complement urban life and adjust pedestrian flow on the macro level. The economic feasibility and cost-effectiveness remain open to further investigation as well.
