Modular Final Presentation
Its taken me a while to upload this as I took some time off working over Christmas as you should do. With the new year comes the ever increasing urgency to get that Part I Placement organised, so its time to get updating again.
This is the Final presentation I gave for my critique for this years first design module MODULAR. We Initially had to work within a Master-plan group to create a scheme for an area of used land in Canterbury, which would house a new student area. The link to the presentation we gave and my Intercrit Presentation can be found below. The brief was based around the topic of Modular. I chose to develop the Education Building which possessed a key element of "Flexibility", in order to allow multiple users to easily adapt the internal spaces. I decided to go down the route of a more component based interpretation of the idea of Modular construction. This was due to thinking that a Volumetric (room by room) approach would not work with the building and plot I was given. I also since visiting the Richard Rogers Inside Out exhibition over the summer finally clocked that I've got a great interest in understanding how structures stand up. Due to this I was interested in designing an external structural envelope which would allow the interior spaces to be as free as possible from load bearing elements.
That's all for now I hope you Enjoy.
