“

I believe architecture stimulates human activity and it is problem-solving on a big scale. It affects the quality of people’s lives, everyday. We cannot change the world, but hopefully through architecture we can create a positive impact.

SITE PLAN

S K B D * E X I S T I N G S T R U C T U R E | With and without walls

The entrance to the school lacks in providing children with a warm welcome

The narrow corridoors along the classrooms prompt the children to move in a straight line. They are straight forward but lack in social aspects.

The are many inactive social spaces in the school. Perhaps this is because the same use of material in learning spaces and social spaces do not engage with the students.

Students stay in the same classroom all day all year round. These classrooms are efficient for the type of system in the country. However it means students sit through average of 8 classes a day in the same environment.

TO FEEL FREE AT A C O N T R O L L E D E N V I R O N M E N T.

to create engaging spaces that encourage flexibility, freedom and openess. however, also instill hierarchy and importance of rules. to provide a sense of strength, formality and firmness. students need to leave home to a place that makes them feel safe but also allow them to feel comfortable and not timid.

the sketch explains the intention of having many social spaces around their learning spaces at ground level. it should portray playfulness and should engage with people.

above it, there is a form of authority that provides the feeling of being looked after. the social spaces go beyond that form of authority so children don’t feel too controlled.

the dark fluid line that goes around everything represents a social circulation that connect spcaes. also, to encourage engagement of students and school. get students involved and make them feel like they matter.

lastly, included at the front of the sketch is a form of entry to welcome people.

DESIGN INTENT

Four interventions are introduced to the school. Firstly, the Entry Experience provides a welcoming platform to the school. The Social Pockets intervention provide platforms for interaction and also act as breakout areas between formal spaces. The third intervention which is the Social Circulation is revolved around ramps that connect different levels of the building that work in conjuction with existing staircases.

Flexibility is introduced to the school in the classrooms. Students can be in the same spot but they don’t have to be in the same environment.

EXEGESIS

ACA DE M I C WO RK

ARCHITECTURE IN URBAN CONTEXT Queen Victoria Market

The new vision for Queen Victoria Market is to ‘Go Back To Basics’ by bringing elements of nature and by retaining the original structure. It is the linkage between old and new, the city and suburbs, locals and tourists, and has a distinct connection with food.
