After the feedback from last weeks presentation, I have decided to change some aspects of the building and work on some aspects a bit more to push them further. In the tutorial I grabbed a large piece of paper and starting sketching out ideas of how I wanted this building to look and possible ideas for an interior space.

This became the basic sketch from which to work. From it you can see an elevated building which has an end support attached to the ground. It floats above the heritage building and provides quite a bit of distance between the two buildings, this will leave it feeling less cluttered.

This is a quick sketch of the interiors of the building with the folded skin. It could be seen to be quite a large space which could be used with its pure volume rather than boxed off into seperate rooms. The space the skin creates could be used to a fuller extent. Perhaps have the rest of the building focus on folding?

From this there became the idea of working with the support tower to create a more visually appealing form. I decided to taper the end and sit the main space on the top. This could then be used as an entrance passage with differing spaces along the way.

Some windows could then be added to allow quick glimpses outside until you reach the main space which is fully glazed.

I came up with the idea of using organic shapes in the main space to house certain rooms, such as the gallery. This is similar to the Peckham Library, or the Bordeux Law Courts. The idea behind is that the building is very crisp and geometric from the outside, but once inside the rooms are very organic.

There could be a series of these pods at varying levels within the main space. I need to work out how people will get to them, or how they will sit in the space. For example, will they be suspended? Or held up by columns?

This was a quick sketch of another way the building could be designed with several columns which hold the main space up. It could also be seen that the main space works as part of a truss system.

This diagram shows the idea of moving through the space in order to keep the main perspective on the aperture at the end.
