Assignment 2 Building Typologies

         1.  Which building typology you are researching?
Amusement center

         2.  Why are you researching this building typology?
           
 Because I feel the area has so many fun things to do regarding physical activity I feel like an amusement center (like an arcade/restaurant)

3. What is the specialty of this building type you would like to research i.e.  Museum for dance, school for digital media…

It will be an arcade/restaurant

       4.  What are the examples that you will be researching… list the examples, location and architect (10 examples)
See examples below

5. What are your goals for working with this building type?

My goal is to create an environment where everyone has fun where maybe you forget about reality for a bit.

Some program elements may include a restaurant, entertainment areas, gift shop/prize shop, bar, lazer tag area
