Chosen Textures








Digitised Continual Texture



Moving element


Moving wall, allows users to increase, decrease, or split studio spaces according to its changing function


Sliding louvres create both an enclosed or open interior which merges with the public space below.


You can see when closed, the interior can be transformed into additional learning areas





2 Axonometric






Renders



Public space "hugged" by building reinvents the traditional academic space into an area open to both public and students, in order to successfully function as a bridge, public forum and learning area


Offices located in glass extensions from building



The second level opens up and reveals the lower level, merging the two spaces and creating a diversified meaning to each area

Lower level is open and contains unrestricted views of the level. It allows for the space to be both open to the public as a bridge and also able to be turned into additional learning space for lectures, talks, studios or meetings.

Plans and Draft Model

Chosen Plans


Zaha Hadid: Irish Prime Ministers House


I chose this plan as it seems to fit necessary spaces within confined areas however we can see the road spanning from one building to the next creating a link between separated buildings and merging the site into one. 

Her road links also reminded me of the American highway intersections through form.






Plans Over Ruins

This plan came as an inspiration for my moving element in conjunction with my theory. We can see that the architect has kept the load-bearing structure of the ancient ruins consistent in the new building and new walls that echo the remanents bellow. This inspired my moving wall, which reinvents the space of the interior.
