project08:History

concept history

initial

reference historical use of site as a shipyard and ideas of transport + movement

architectural intervention as a collection of sensory 'containers' that actively respond to the current environment

HERD_ grouping of 'containers' and people when site is empty to promote interaction and collective

SPREAD_ dynamic movement and constant change of 'containers' when site is crowded

INTERACT_ constant movement of 'containers' brings different programs and users together

develop

3 dimensional configurable space as a machine for user interaction:

consider program_additional programs through architectural intervention that will add value to the space and foster user interaction

- artist_display, work

- office_food, drink, socialise, smoke

- visitor_information, art, food, drink, socialise

develop adaptable models to house various functions and activate. establish relationship between neighbouring models which house different or interrelated functions. dynamic shifting models develop new connections with different functions. consider ability to shift and connect in 3 dimensions.

a swarm of independent functions, constantly communicating with each other and shifting to meet environmental and user demands

explore movement in 3 dimension

movement_concept

respond to desire + absence of social/retail space at ndsm. develop models to house various retail functions while providing a dynamic, multifunctional landscape.
