ACT TWO
BOUNDARY AND HISTORY. REWRITTING SITE BOUNDARY.
The pedestrian in the southwest facing wall only allow 1 people to pass. It is cramped and not inviting for pedestrian to walk. Since the entrances is design to be only accessible by foot, I pushed back the southwest facing wall boundary by 2 meters, making it more persuading for pedestrian to walk. However I did not push the boundary in the southeast wall, as the entrance there is design for vehicle access. Newcastle have a very rich industrial background in the past. The heritage of the first pioneer of industrialization felt among the country. However due to the decreasing of industrial importance, many sites have been abandoned, creating a ghost, unused buildings. I will try to revitalize the industrial background, not only the choices of construction material, but also the activity of mass producing goods.
