PROPOSED Hybrid Typology - Maritime Museum + Boat House

STUDIO BRIEF This year DS13 will look at Canary Wharf, London’s future central financial district and explore the contexts informing and underpinning Free Zones as territorial, formal and strategic constructs. We are interested in a political form of architecture, an architecture that has the capacity to advance public imagination and shape new subjectivities through the orchestration of aesthetic encounters. We are also interested in cities, especially in leveraging cities’ capacity to marshal intense and persistent atmospheres, moods and experience to inform architectural form and performance.

We will explore a rapidly proliferating urban genre - the Free Zone.

Free Zones are spaces of exception, territories where laws and regulatory regimes are different to those of the host state. They simultaneously exist both inside and outside of state boundaries. As worlds within worlds, Free Zones are by definition different - they incubate otherness, produce defamiliariazation or estrangement.

INTRODUCTION

‘ELEVEN BRANNAN’ STREET DESIGN ABSTRACT The Americas Cup is the world’s leading national boat racing. Originally based in New Zealand, the narrative of this project derives from the notion of having The Cup to be relocated within Canary Wharf. Additionally, Maritime Culture and History continues to be a significant importance to British Heritage. Upon this basis, the project aims to revive traditional boat building, craftsmanship and production into a contemporary speedcraft exhibition that will be produced in mass and be displayed, deployed and use for a sailing academy/school.

The building features a waterfront high-tower blocks skyscrapers that emulates the production process in a looping fashion and continues to be manufactured till deployment. As a contrast, an inverted relationship is applied within the museum where the character qualities exemplify the effect of ships

TYPOLOGY MARITIME MUSEUM AND BOAT HOUSE YEAR 2022 LOCATION CANARY WHARF, LONDON INSTITUTE ROYAL NEW ZEALAND YACHT SQUADRON LEVEL FINAL YEAR 2 PROJECT

11 Brannan Street is a waterfront high-rise production tower, the typology revolves around a speedcraft production warehouse and maritime museum. The intent of the project derives from the dying profession of boat building, and aims the revival of traditional speedcrafting with contemporary boat building production in order to host The America’s Cup. The project consists of having mix-use commercial and residential spaces, restaurants, production zones, museum spaces that promotes exhibitions and events. But unlike any other boat house, this building provides an alternative approach towards facilitating high-end boats as well as giving an extraordinary way to view a museum within a high-rise tower.

Shipbuilding: 1800–Present From the 19th century onwards, ships began to be built from iron and steel. Sails were also replaced with steam engines and paddles with propellers.

For thousands of years people have navigated the world’s oceans by ship, whether it was to trade, travel, fight or explore. Up to the 19th century, ships were made out of wood. It was only in the 1800s that iron and steel ships were introduced and sails were replaced with steam engines.

Iron ships

TIMELINE

Ships built out of wood could not be built much longer than 80 metres. The timber frames also took up quite a lot of space. In the 19th century, the industrial revolution meant that shipbuilders could buiald ships using iron. These iron ships could be much larger, with lots more space for cargo. They didn’t need as much work to keep them in good condition. Isambard Kingdom Brunel’s Great Britain, built in 1843, was the first ship to be built entirely of wrought iron.

Steel and steam ships

RE-THINK RE-INVENT RE-LOCATE RE-VIVE

The first steam-powered vessel to be introduced was the Charlotte Dundas, engineered in 1801 by William Symington, the British pioneer of marine steam propulsion. She was used on the Forth-Clyde canal to tow vessels.

Shipping today

Aldrin Estillore

Since around 1940, ships have been produced almost exclusively of welded steel. They are built in prefabricated sections and then lifted into place – this is known as ‘block construction’. As of 2014, the longest ship ever built was the oil tanker Seawise Giant, measuring 1,504.1 ft.

00

THE REVIVAL OF SHIPBUILDING Towards a Contemporary Traditional Crafstmanship

Shipbuilding or shipwright is a profession that is increasingly becoming obselete, a dying profession under craftsmanship that is now replaced with mass production, technologically driven processes which aims to be the forefront future of crafting and manufacture. The basis of this project comes from the notion of reviving the lost craft and bring a contemporary standard of traditional boatmaking processes and bring it to life within the architecture.

THE DAWN OF A NEW KING OF THE SEA RACE

Architecture Portfolio : 2022/23

In the 1880s steel began to be used instead of iron. Ships also began to be fitted with steam engines. Steam engines were first used in paddle steamers. The engine turned two paddle wheels.

Paddle steamers were not suited to the open sea because in heavy seas the waves lifted one wheel right out of the water while the other one went right under, and this strained the engines.

A DYING PROFESSION? The Need to Revive a Lost Craftsmanship

The Americas Cup is the world’s leading national boat racing competition. Originally based in New Zealand, the narrative of this project derives from the notion of having The Cup to be a potential relocation within Canary Wharf that aims to revive traditional speedcrafting and contemporary boat building methods to host the worlds global boat racing competition.

THE BEAUTY OF BOATBUILDING AND SPEED CRAFTING

A NEED OF RELOCATION: The AC40 hull shape is based on that of Te Rehutai, the boat Team New Zealand sailed to victory in the last America’s Cup, with a few developments and the 40-foot boat will be used in competition by both the Women’s and Youth America’s Cup’s.

AN OPPORTUNITY FOR GLOBAL GATHERING: Earlier this week it was announced that the New Zealand entry in The Ocean Race 2022/23 was withdrawing, citing COVID issues and the bypassing of Auckland as a stopover port.

On Friday it was announced that the Auckland Boat Show, which had been heavily oversubscribed for space, and due to be staged in mid-March was being cancelled due to the COVID restrictions imposed by the New Zealand Government after some very creative modelling of the impact of the Omicron variant of the virus.

SITE HISTORY Re-inventing the Dry Dock-Lands

Canary Wharf is significant in Maritime history including shipping, ports and marine science. Ships from every corner of the world would navigate in and out of the Lodnon Docklands, importing raw materials such as tobacco, timber, and animal skins. By 1802, the West India Docks were open for business which was known as the greatest civil engineering structure of its day in England it became soon after one the world’s busiest shipping ports.

Wood Wharf offers a very different district because it’s effectively an island connected to Canary Wharf by an isthmus or bridge.

As a site of interest Wood Wharf is made up of a series of major buildings – the main generators of activity. Because of the water side city, unusually the buildings get taller towards the edge, because they’re near the water. Wood Wharf is for people that love their city and make the most of it. A neighbourhood curated by the world’s leading leisure hotspots where cafes, bars, workspaces and independent retailers sit within 9 acres of riverside parklands and gardens

SITE LOCATION Opportunities and Constraints

The site location will be at 11 Brannan Street near Timber Quays.

Adjacent is One Brannan Street, a large high-rise development.

The reason for the site is that often masterplans are more of a pie shape, with the taller buildings in the centre. In this case, it’s almost the reverse: lower in the middle and higher at the edge, to deliberately exploit the views seen from a long distance because of the wide horizon of the waterscape. This produces a composition of buildings along the water’s edge that will be a prime location for a boat house.

DESIGN PROPOSAL What happens if we re-invent the wheel of a production line?

When we look at Warehouses and Manufacturing Buildings, they are composed of typically having a linear line-up arrangement whereby the goal of the process of the built product is derived from a straight line, from start-to-finish, this gives allocations of facilities to be arranged in a linear fashion that can maximise the production process and maximise output and time. We can say that typically a production process begins and ends within a linear arrangement. But the Design proposal for this building will change this processes into a looping process where we can re-use and manipulate the production line to be circulated around these spaces.

-The public circulation has a specific way to navigate around the building due to the allocation of the zones and to ensure the health and safety of visitors.

-Circulation spaces includes a central core with a lift and a twin staircase. The central atrium has a tower of escalators that tours around the Museum Spaces.

SPEEDCRAFT PRODUCTION A Historical Respect in Reviving Traditional Craftsmanship The building will be derived through three specific zones. The Production Zone, Museum Zone, and the Public Zone. The intent of the building programme is to understand and learn about the importance of traditional towards contemporary craftsmanship.

A place of activity in building, constructing and learning the process of building ships, boats and shipdocks. The idea stemmed on having an apprentice to be able to teach and support the user to learn the craftsmanship in building ships and boats.

I took inspiration of marine characteristics in order to create five sets of distinctive characters that are able to demonstrate the effectual spaces needed to inhabit the programmatic zoning within its volume.

The design is conducted through a series of Boolean Operations. These objects are a combination of subtractions and intersections in order to convey the characteristics of these objects.

Through Object Manipulation we can create a set of characters that conveys the effectual qualities of objects that defy gravity through Character Study.

The design processes is as follows, that when we take a typical production line and somewhat manipulate the production to be in a repeating circular pattern that creates a looping effect that creates the production line to be reused and re-structured. On the other hand, another relationship that we can also look at is to enhance the typology of a production building and create objects that can be inserted within these volume and form an advancement crafting space.

Cross-Section Drawing | 11 Brannan Street | Wood Wharf The project consists of two distinct relationships that derive the final proposal. First is the normative structure, mostly consisting of steel frames, trusses and floor plates to encapsulate a high-rise boat production warehouse. Secondly is the Object Structure which is designed in a monoque, stress-skinned structure that are wrapped to form the built form. Water is the “common space” par excellence because, at the same time, it brings us closer and distances us from the Other, that is, from the unknown and the unpredictable - everything that contemporary cities seem to deny symptomatically. It is precisely there, in this inconstant “common space”, that the navigations cross, articulate, and dispute the different cultural and natural identities. Therefore, if before the horizon of the navigations was the encounter with new lands, today it is the encounter with new waters, or rather, with new “commons”.

FREE ZONE Maritime and Admiralty Law The Maritime and Admiralty Law are a collection of domestic and international laws and treaties that govern behaviour on the sea. The United Nations through the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) issues conventions that can be enforced by coast guards and the navies of most signatory countries.

In Venice, Italy, the majority of the Venetians do NOT have a boat driving license because it’s required only if the motor exceeds 40HP. However, recently a law and regulations apply that for any recreational boats had been banned only during peak hours, which meant 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. on weekdays and 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturdays

re-INVENTING THE WATER LINE Cultural & Conventional Intervention The Docklands offers a historic uniquness within the area, the best way to honour and preserve history is through people, blending the edges of Canary Wharf into the remaining community of those who used to live and work on the island. Many of their family histories go back to working on the docks.

In order to achieve the transition, these new buildings employ brick and masonry materials, as well as colour to keep people engaged with the wateredge, rather than raised above it, to connect them with the docks. Allowing the buildings to face the water, building them with materials that feel significant and providing for houseboat moorings are all things that enhance rather than take away from the waterscape.

The other thing is the way in which we name and brand the place, the parks, the streets to connect the history. These effect help evoke memories.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION INTRODUCTION

PROJECT BACKGROUND: LOCATION North Quay, Canary Wharf CLIENTS Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron Royal Museums Greenwich - a network of museums in the Maritime Greenwich World Heritage Site.

Aldrin Estillore

PROPOSED Hybrid Typology - Maritime Expo / Museum

DESIGN BRIEF This year’s brief we explored our interpretation of what is considered as “Building as a City”. The effectual qualities that a building as a city can convey and produce exciting, strange and peculiar worlds through the use of Free Zones through object extraction and manipulation.

The Maritime Expo is located at North Quay, just within the entrance of Canary Wharf. The the design proposal consists of a mixture of exhibitions, artifacts and artworks surrounded in residential spaces. Canary Wharf is rich in their culture of shipments, free ports and entrepots of maritime trade, freeports are a special kind of port where normal tax and customs rules do not apply. As such, Canary Wharf, London Docklands offers seaports at the coast where a freeport and imports can enter with simplified customs documentation and without paying tariffs which I will explore further as a Freezone exploration as a building response.

The project aim is to redefine and reimagine the conventions of an expedition and exhibition spaces by exploring the themes of gravity and linearity. The project is organised as a longitudinal distribution of character objects, which are conceived as large volumes that exude mass, weight and gravity containing all maritime, shipyards, dockports and artifacts within the large cavernous interior that exhibits the maritime history and collections exhibited around the zones. The objects of characters are then flanked by two volumes of living accommodations that hold living spaces for visitors and workers or public use.

Architecture Portfolio : 2022/23

01

Project: 11 Brannan Street - Maritime Expo

The project started with taking building tectonics and detailing to create five sets of characters, more specifically, a cast of characters that embodied a similar visual complexity that will create and enforce a spatial effect that activates and defines the internal programming of the characters together. As the family of characters are made, we had to consider how they work within a building envelope. This created iterations of different bundling and compacting techniques to hold the characters together, they lean onto each other precariously hand-by-hand that allows them to be stable and stand firmly onto the ground. This created the main attraction of the proposal that enabled the space to be a central hub of gathering and meeting point that created secrete pockets, cravasses of cavernous voids, suspended massing and undercroft passageways.

OBJECT EXTRACTION Extrapolating London’s Building Qualities to Curated Objects The first task was to chose a characterful urban fragment in London and sample it to extract a set of abstracted forms/ shapes that depict a set of observed qualities. Then we use these forms/shapes to construct 5 solid models, 5 characters that capture qualities you have sampled in your urban fragment.

A Cast of Characters: After we extrapolated these forms into characters, the objects form a family of forms, a cast of characters each derived from a survey of building details from the City of London.

OBJECT MANIPULATION The Effectual Performance of the Exhibition Spaces

The cast of characters are then extracted in different arrangements from iterations of assembly techniques such as Bundling, Expansion and Linear Arrangements. After testing we decided to choose this linear arrangement as it best compliments the characters to be side by side.

The whole construct in this model shows how the characters are combined and assembled together which works hand-in-hand inorder to stand. The accomodation blocks from the side allows a cloud-like effect that can be seen inside from the front view.

OBJECT MANIPULATION The Effectual Performance of the Exhibition Spaces In section, the objects establish large cavernous voids, enabling the sense of proportion and weight to be experienced from the point of view of an interior user. The objects are conceived to express mass, weight and gravity through thick sectional poché, as well as a series of deep cantilevers with articulated undercrofts that enhance the perception of levitation and suspension. The sense of defying gravity is further expressed through the connections between the objects: they lean precariously onto each other to create a continuous ribbon, a set of dominos in a provisional state of arrested collapse.

REFLECTION OF SEMESTER I

REFLECTION OF SEMESTER II

Conclusion of Semester I

Conclusion of Semester I

From Semester 1, we worked in teams and little groups and this immedietly made the task management to be taken into consideration before the design process started. I learned to be able to plan accordingly with my teammates for what and how to approach the assignments each week. I learned to co-ordinate alongside with my team with the time management to better execute the task at hand.

Aldrin Estillore

It was clear that each team member had their own strengths and weaknesses when it comes to their individual skillset. We are made aware that we use our strengths to what we are already aware to be able to create the best works to approach the project.

In the beggining we collected ideas, brainstormed and shared design visions and decided to sketch everytime we express our own input of the design project every week. Once this is agreed with the team we use our own personal time to dedicate on the specific pages and tasks we decide to share for each team member. This made it easier for us to be able to create work as the week commences for review weeks and feedback from the tutors, this worked perfectly dividing the task for digital works and physical works.

The tutors helped us in groups through weekly tutorials and gathering and getting feedback on our groupchats. This was great to able to sync up the project from the tutors perspective and within the groups perpective also. During tutorials and reviews it was clear to able to communicate what is already been discussed from the feedback of the tutors and made it more clearer for us to progress with the project with the right visual communication inorder to create our narrative.

Another essential aspect that was useful for us as a group was the online courses for architectural visualisation and diagraming provided from our tutors. This gave us the flexibility to be able to learn new visualisation and diagraming techniques to better communicate our projects. This helped a lot as it goes to a complete breakdown on how to achieve the desired image from beginning to end.

I found the topic of ‘City within a Building’ a very applicable and relevant to our current practice and guidelines within the architectural industry. It was a challenging and fun aspect to be able to drive the project forward and will continue to use the principals I’ve learned within DS13 towards my professional career.

The physical construct was the most time consuming and most frustrating part of the project due to the fact that it is expensive and time consuming. However, it is definatley the most exciting and most rewarding part of the process from my experience due to the fact that when making a physical model of the project it gives way for new techniques, ideas and delivery towards the project that a digital representation wont do and nothing can really express the project as much as manifesting to something physical.

Individual Works Reflections: During Semester 2, the project started off with a rigorous research study of political, social and environmental agenda in order to create the premise and problem to tackle within the project before the design process even started. The topic of reviving traditional craftsmanship within boat building I found really personal as I myself enjoy sailing and find the craftsmanship of boatbuilding a high-skill profession. Due to the fact that it is a dying profession, I wanted to capitalise this situation within the project. Additionally the America’s Cup was the catalyst to be able to create the possibility for the project to be realistic.

As a political topic, The Maritime and Admirality Law really facinated me as a topic of a FreeZone because it questions what is the future of the transport infrastructure of Canary Wharf and within the connection of the historical River Thames that is a deep relationship of London’s Identity. High-rise buildings are crucial to reflect a cities progression of a growing economy, similarly this can also be a political statement to able to impact change within the surrounding area of the development. The project really challenges the aspects of micro and macro connections of the design.

Architecture Portfolio : 2022/23

Group 3 Work Reflection : Marco, Victoria, Aldrin

Starting from the connection of the land and water is an aspect that was addressed as early on as possible from the design process. This inturn gives the intuition to be able to question and respond the concerns and challenges at hand. Another aspect that was also critical through the process was the site location and typology itself. This intent to merge two typologies together was challenging to be able to design something that was a hybrid of two types of buildings which was a Maritime Museum and a Boat House. However this was the strarting driver to be able to experiment on the programmatic and opportunities for the spaces that will be the output of these two typologies to be merged together.

Once the premise is solid it was time to actually start sketching and create the initial design of the project. This obviouslly was a constant communication with the tutors, consultants and feedback of guest critics and panels to be able to progress. The design continued with the intent to create a building that is structurally sound and creates the notion to insert and inject these objects within the building which was a completely different relationship to one another.

I found the process of model making to be the most difficult, like Semester 1 it was hard to arrange the time and deliberatley create a physical construct that would actually represents the project. The time created to 3D print and lasercut the components took a lot of time and needed a lot of time management and advance preparation to be able to complete it in time of submission and exhibition. But knowing that this would be the last year, it would be most rewarding. What I found the most enjoyable was the fact that the collaborative spirit of my collegues, peers and tutors were suffecient and effective in driving the project forward, there were times of working overtime and perhaps a lack of preparation, however it resulted in the document that I can proudly present infront of professionals and experts.

Lastly, I would like to express my thanks to the tutors, all the sub-tutors, guest critics and past DS13 students for able to give constructive feedback in order to move the project forward towards a better clarity and creating a better design to capitalise the architectural intelligence of the potential of the design process within the last year of my masteral academic year.

As a consequence, fire safety is of particular importance with regards to vertical high-rise towers, whether residential or commercial. After the consultations, amendments and revisions, changes to approved documents came into force in 2019.

PRODUCTION ZONE

Following the June 2017 Grenfell Tower tragedy, a fire started from an electrical fault on the fourth floor. Many residents lost their lives, and more were injured. The wellbeing of countless others was directly and indirectly affected by the fire.

INTERIOR VIEW A Place of History

Aldrin Estillore

Architecture Portfolio : 2022/23

The long and noble history of the British Maritime history unfolds in a continuous motion within and around the London docklands, 7 metres (23 ft.) below the ground. All floors - connecting exhibition spaces with the auditorium, classroom, offices, café and the dock floor within the museum - connected escalators creating exciting and sculptural spaces.

INTERIOR VIEW A Place of Memory

Aldrin Estillore

Architecture Portfolio : 2022/23

A place of activity in building, constructing and learning the process of building ships, boats and shipdocks. The idea stemmed on having an apprentice to be able to teach and support the user to learn the craftsmanship in building ships and boats.

STRUCTURAL STRATEGY

The design processes is as follows, that when we take a typical production line and somewhat manipulate the production to be in a repeating circular pattern that creates a looping effect that creates the production line to be re-used and re-structured. On the other hand, another relationship that we can also look at is to enhance the typology of a production building and create objects that can be inserted within these volume and form an advancement crafting space.

PRECEDENTS BUILDING TYPOLOGY

Architecture Portfolio : 2022/23

Brazilian Maritime Museum | Ben-Avid & messina rivas

Aldrin Estillore

I looked at two specific precedents that would explore more of the typology of an maritime museum The first is Brazilian Maritime Museum by Ben-Avid & messina rivas in Brazil, that shows modern day brazilian maritime history, artifacts and maritime culture. The second precedent is the Windermere Jetty Museum by Carmody Groark. The building includes exhibition spaces for the display of steam launches, motorboats, yachts and other vessels, telling the stories of their construction and use on the lake. Both projects explores an idea of effectual zones. Lastly, I also looked at the Danish Maritime Museum by BIG Architects because the museum has shown with an understanding of the character of the region and especially the Kronborg Castle. Like a subterranean museum in a dry dock.
