Ideas?

My idea so far for this project - since it is dealing with smallpox, and the preventive measure of it, I want to create different sizes for different rooms based on touch and allotted space for a specific purpose. The quarantine room will be largest so that the person will be less likely to touch its surroundings and possibly spread smallpox to others. I want the spaces that aren't used for quarantine to maybe conform to a person's body and as well as have the elevation in relation to the stages of smallpox. The rooms are separated by importance/use for the duration of smallpox. As for energy, mainly solar energy and possibly the use of heat/vibrations from cars in the garage.

Picking the site

On Monday (3/1/10), we went to New Orleans for a site visit - the site consists of the a wide area covering the Erato Cruise Terminal in the Port of New Orleans. I chose my site to be along the building elevated, near the spiral ramp.
