THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

Cosmic Fusion: Bridging Science Knowledge, Culture and Community through the Space Research Center in Newtown.

The design of this Space Research Center draws inspiration from a multifaceted theoretical framework that encapsulates its core mission and contextual significance.

At its essence, the Center seeks to expand upon the educational continuum initiated by the Science Bono Children Museum, progressing from primary to tertiary levels. In this manner, the facility endeavors to become a bastion of space exploration for the entire nation. Rooted deeply in the Newtown community, the design incorporates Nguni symbolism, reflecting the rich cultural tapestry of the Nguni tribes and celebrating the area’s multifaceted heritage. Functionally, the Center is structured around three distinct facets: Science, Culture, and the revitalization of Newtown (now known as a Cultural Precinct). The main idea takes the form of a Nebula, symbolizing the universal bodies, signifying a renewed commitment to science and mathematics, and further celebrating the stars of Newtown that illuminate the city’s narrative today. This building will be a groundbreaker within the international space race in collaboration with related institutions in South Africa.

CONCEPTUAL MODEL 2: TESTING OUT THE POSITION OF THE MODEL ON A 1:200 SITE PLAN .

THE DESIGN TAKES THE FORM OF COSMIC DUST AND GAS TOWERS THAT MAKE UP PART OF THE EAGLE NEBULA CALLED THE PILLARS OF CREATION WHICH IS PART OF AN ACTIVE STAR-FORMING REGION WITHIN THE NEBULA.
