MOVING FORWARD
I have decided to create a series of drawings of snapshots moving into the building to allow more understanding of it
Moving towards the building
A walkthrough between cafe and workshop
Sitting area
The main atrium
PLAN AND FORM DEVELOPMENT
The plan was developed from the sketches and overall form of the building was created to be mimic the form of several pitched tents together to emphasize the random and informality of the building.
I based the plans on two major atria ; one on the south and one to the north skewed. From these two I then added another connection between them cutting the building in half
The spaces in the building was then divided into four parts with the major spaces occupying each part.
Bridges connecting south and north
buildings
Art studio on first floor with windows
facing north into the main atrium
Classrooms arranged in a push and pull manner to break the formality of a straight line
Workshops are located on the south east
facing the streetfront to benefit from the
south light
Cafe on the south side acting as the first
attraction into the building
Interior of the library
