Week 7

Week 7:

 

Lecture: Architectural Fiction.

Today we were informed about our assignment 2 assessment criteria, there appears to be a greater influence placed on the background/process than of the finished product.

Tutorial:

I turned up to tutorial today with little to show for my mid-semester break. I haven’t given the project much thought yet due to other assignments taking precedents. I did however manage a quick scribble during the lecture – the first seed of an idea for an architectural entity for the site:


It’s a rudimentary exploration in section of how the building could sit in the site... Not much but it’s a start!

I have however confirmed that my project will be a retail facility with a large on-site distribution centre – targeted at the time-rich community of Paddington. It will act as a recreation/shopping/social hub.

The functions remind me of some of the work by Archigram. Kind of like funhouse?
