This week I went back to look at some exemplars, but instead of looking at the typology of photography studios and galleries; I looked at the typology of cantilevered architecture .
From the exemplars it could be seen that the actual cantilevered section doesn't vary between projects but gains it character from its base constraints. This has shown me that the way in which the building is held up or attaches to the ground is very important and should not be overlooked for the purpose of the main building.
It could also be seen that quite a few of these exemplars wouldn't work on the site as they would block the main thoroughfare of Howard Smiths Wharves
This exercise has helped me to understand further how I want my building to change to a more defined building and the changes I need to make to make this happen.
