− | + | A permanent path is established through the grid, providing solid groundcover and allowing free flow of users to the key points of reaction around the site. The nature of the path’s role in setting a fixed framework of travel through the site is mirrored by its structural significance. Cross-sectional, the path is composed of a simple of concrete slab and band beams spaning between grids of columns to the underground car park below. This creates a rigid framework over the entire site, a functional superstructure, within which, the dynamic units can cantilever and operate. | |

− | + | The column design is homogenous with the fluid form of the landscape and expressive of its functional role in the irrigation system. A deliberate contrast is formed between the hard, mechanical yet dynamic edge of the unit, and the fluid, soft yet fixed form of the landscape and column. A maximum span of three adjacent units, to minimise excessive lateral movement, establishes a pattern for the paving through the grid. Within this framework, the unit is placed – braced on its side either by the rigid framework of the path or an adjacent unit. | |
