Siting: Massing Studies

M o r e   T o    b e    u p l o a d e d . . .

( Plans and rough program organisation will be uploaded soon)

- Reverted back to having the 'school' back on site, as opposed to across the road.
- Opting for the school as an addition/alterations/extension that connects existing buildings 


- I am thinking of going with the ' blue option' 
- connects from the main walk way: extension to the Blockhouse will link via a 'footbridge' to the Square house.
- Materials: Glass, Steel, Concrete. to contrast & thereby emphasise existing building materials (brickwork) etc.
- split program, maximises flexibility of use - speaks to the idea of the school as a bridge that connects usage in existing buildings. 
- note to self: explore the 'interstitial space' / old and new : link Bernard tschumi article.
