My library is a space where people enable hands-on experience with materials. The powerhouse was the power station that supplied the Sydney Tram network with electricity. It was the heart of the community, and my project will make it like before again.
Sustainability statement
The newly proposed Powerhouse entrance orientation highlights future potential connections to various cultural, educational and media institutions. This project is a material library focusing on digitally and traditionally experiences with materials. The visitors can learn more about the new technology materials, how to use them, and the traditional crafting materials. Hence this will make the powerhouse centre of the community again. The building will be constructed with a timber truss ceiling, translucent, and glass panels.
An Ethical and sustainable discipline must consider sustainability as a multi-faceted solution to the social, cultural, and environmental issues encountered in architectural practice. The plant facade of our harris street side had some advantages: allowing climatic control within the building, reducing on-set costs to cool and giving shade for the making space. An entire glass façade was designed for the office and community centre area to allow natural light to penetrate through the building. The brick facade will represent the original powerhouse building fading into the new form. Once the project has finished, this facility can use the advance to provide 3d printing / crafting for low-carbon construction and other industries or personal use. Our library wants to be a place that does not only show you one side of the modern way of making with the material but also lets you experience the beauty of handcraft.
