The flip-book showcases fragments from the original hard portfolio showcasing each design stage throughout the project.

Development

Progress sketches

Exploring the journey through the top of the Coal Loader with the addition of paths, decks, amphiteathres, gardens and raised planters.

Analysing structurals through the cross section.

To continue the journey and circulation through the site, the entry will be under a green roof with planters and hanging plants. The will be a graded lawn path which connects both sides of the green roof.

Feedback

Either continue with:

- Parasitic Architecture, this being extremely dominant part of the site, defining its role as a parasite. How can it encase the site and the architecture and be a iconic feature as well as serving other uses?

- Focus on landscaping and construction and perfecting the geometric forms which evolved from the chute ideas, research further how it would work and be constructed as a real life project.

A journey through the site using visualisations.

(Referenced to plans above)

Upper site plan -1: Entry view from Balls Head Drive, the parasitic architecture constructed out of timber posts helps create a focal entry point. The structure provides shading devices and leads the visitor through the site, framing and accentuating views and features of the site.

Upper site plan -2: View of the Entry point of the internal exhibition centre. Tiered decking is provided for the public cafe seating.

Upper site plan -2: View from the reception of the internal exhibition centre.

Upper site plan -20: The external stairs that lead to the experimental art laboratories and the lower part of the site. The walls are to encased with vegetation including green walls and extensive planters.

Upper site plan -19: Daytime view of the lower level of the coal loader, this space is prodominently lawn for potential performance and exhibition spaces as well as open green space for the public.

Upper site plan -20: Daytime views of the attrium and it's green walls.

Lower site plan -12: The 'chute inspired' extrusions for the art laboratories play with the idea of voids and multi level workspaces. These spaces extrude over the water and provide protection from the weather for the pedestrian wharf below.

Upper site plan -20:A night view coming up the external stairs, the parasitic installation structure frames views of the night sky.

Week 11: Progress

Experimental Model 01

Influenced by one of my chosen artists, Gabriel Dawe, who creates geometric installations using thread, string and colour. This idea could be argued as a parasitic form, which could potentially create new outdoor spaces, although shade, structure will be compromised. Posts will need to be structural (potentially steel, galvanised, as per its location).

Experimental Model 02

Parasitic to lead the visitor through the site, this will encase the atrium providing access to the art labs below.

Sketchup sketch of the Atrium

Experimental model of the parasitic form I sought to create.

Positioned up to the coal loader tunnels.

BIM Progression and finalising design:

View from inside the Experimental Art laboratories. The Balcony's are 1500mm higher than the existing Coal loader tunnel RL.

The difference in levels from the Coal Loader entry tunnel RL to the wharf situated over the water, 800mm off the sandstone sea wall, 3000mm below the art lab balcony's.

"

View inside the art laboratory, this part of the space could potentially be a display level. The wide sliding doors allow for ample light to disperse to the other rooms of the art spaces, as well as generous ventilation.

Modelling the Parasitic forms with shading devices.

Reshaping of the main external stairs, that connect the street entry point and the tunnel entry.
