Week 11 - Progress: Attempting Form + Detailed Brief

Scribbles - Attempting Form

Using the pre-existing draft of the spaces and a sketch of the building against the cliffs, it is clear that the boxy representations of rooms need to be pushed further. Building against the height is a good idea, one I want to retain but it doesn't need to be three levels and reach the top. Walking up the levels is a big design issue, you don't want to be walking so much. This is where Dan suggested looking at examplars and see how others have resolved this problem.

Image 2 explores the process of forming the building envelope. I think the analysis and process is good, but
perhaps looking at the form is pre-mature because the spatial arrangements are not yet fully resolved.

Detailed Brief for "The Space Place" 

- 10m x 25m 

- proposing 2/3 stopping areas in the space.
- include slight partitioning

Transitioning between the rooms

walkway or hallway, the transition between the space place and the rooftop garden is important because the rooftop garden is a predominantly outdoor space with living plants. I want to counterbalance this with an area where information is presented in an indoor setting -> info-mural.  Below are some exemplars.

Detailed Brief for: The Rooftop Garden

- 10m x 20m

- Clear walkways
- Places for rest and shelter

- Stair which connect existing site at New Farm  no longer needed.

This is only a draft up of the spaces. Further work is needed.
