Week 8

A little bit late with this post. sorry. We recived a lecture from yasu on sutainable practice (an alternate version) which was interesting and thought provoking, in terms of considering the whole lifecycle of the things we create. Trying to eliminate the use of new materials and reusing old and recycled materials that function exactly the same. And then at the end of life possibly reutilizing the materials in another building project.

Above is the the general space I have selected for the project 2. The roads create the borders of the site. The site currently is 70% car parking the rest being grass and trees.

While my architectural proposition won't take up the entire site by any means it will probably end up taking up 1/3 of the site with the tile grid. (see future posts about the grid system)

What is my architectural proposal you ask? It's going to be a climate change and renewable energies center. Primarily focused around creating greater awareness around these two issues, for both the government and general public.
