YEAR 2
This project is a group master plan that aims to revitalize a peripheral area in Derry’s cross -Plymouth. The masterplan connects two main roads to each other through a theatrical journey ofa group of buildings that extend their experiences to the street, creating a context we named as the theatrical village.
My building within this neighborhood project is a film school (as seen in the photos) that is situated beneath an old theatre, sharing their function and nature as an education center for film students and a theatre for the public and for school screenings.
The design progressed through a series of sketches that attempt to imagine the place with a cohesive volume and aesthetics as the site is a theatrical village, which is an attraction to local and regional enthusiasts.
Elevation of the intent of the spatial journey of the building.
STUDENTS

Teachers are also primary users of the building. They use the ground floor to access the building, and the general access staircase to arrive to the school in the basement.
GENERAL PUBLIC
Teachers are also primary users of the building. They use the ground floor to access the building, and the general access staircase to arrive to the school in the basement.
They access the building from the ground floor to the basement floor to visit the public archive. These are expected to circulate the building at a smaller rate, and do not spend alot of time inside the building.

Main aim:
To revitalise a compact residential neighbourhood, and to create a weekly celebratory event that displays the efforts undertaken by local residents in an open air sunday market that also engages the general public.
The Project:
MASTER PLAN
This is a permanent structure that sits on a peripheral corner of the residential block. It draws visitors of the area and exhibits a link with the growing facilities on site.The growers hub (neighbouring project) affiliates with the restaurant by providing growing beds that are used to pick fresh foods. It also presents the existing residents with a homey cafe to reinterperate the atmosphere of the block, and further integrate it with the barbican.
The basement provides the office space to manage the market. It contains lockers and storage units for the sellers to store their tents and belonging for the week after.
The beginning stage of the project is concerned with site documentation. From several site visits, the site is documented using different methods. These methods aim to shape a particular understanding of the site, this stage becomes the foundation that starts to inform a design process.
A shot of the building entrance and its surrounding context. The exterior is a mixture of limestone, aluminum and currigated metal.
The design was developed as a journey that takes one down a sunken plane, into a transitional space, then guides one into a stepped theatre area that leads to the stage, and provides alternative circulation to a souvenir/instruments and music library shops and an exit.
