Thinking through making

The feedback i received for staging marked a key turning point in my design process. I used it as an opportunity to reconsider what I had already learnt about the site and use this to develop more specific design goals. It was also apparent that i had been considering my strategy for the cathedral and the Centre for Heritage and Preservation as two separate entities. To change this I began to develop ways of unifying my scheme. This led to me re-examining the brief and scrutinising my own position on the cathedrals restoration to come up with a far more detailed strategy, upon which I was able to more comfortably develop site specific architectural responses, as opposed to vague massings.
