Nowadays, people rush by catching with time and their schedule, that they tend to forget to stop and enjoy the little things in life. Food now has also become a necessity to rush by having a drive through. Restaurants with walk-in and walk by, where people come-eat-go. Is there no pleasure in these fast paced movements, can there not be any solution to simply enjoy your meal with the little inspiration that comes by? KFC Walk Thru, is a concept we came up to integrate with the fast paced community but at the same time interjecting a little essence that was long forgotten by the human nature. We forced the spaces in such that it creates a whole different dimension inside, interplaying with light and shadow, levels and hierarchy where it amuses the senses of the human mind as we experience the simple things such as eating or having a conversation over there. We transformed and juxtaposed this form into a smooth linearity where the movement is not obstructed, but with a hint of playfulness. This is what we call, Walk Thru.
To those who could not afford to enter the building due to the time constraints, they are allowed to experience the spaces in a whole different dimension, where they are slowly welcomed in a humble entrance and gradually going through the drive through and finishing with a stupendous experience of going in and under the space of the outward cantilevered form. For a split second, they will experience a breathtaking scene when the sun casts it's rays onto the perfect angle with the interplays, and shall they enjoy the small but meaningful moments of the space without being in the space.
