Moving Elements GIF

Moving Element 1-Opening of Top Floor



I decided to incorporate an opening top floor roof, as it represents the opening up to nature and the motif of opening up to each other allowing for a development of interconnectedness between people. It also represents a flower blooming. This moving feature provides also provides a practical use too as it  for fresh air and ventilation to pass through the building while also serving as an interesting study/ leisure location. 

Moving Element 2-Expandable Gallery




I decided to include an expanding bridge/tunnel between buildings, the original corridor between building was designed to be a gallery space, however it was too small. Therefore, to maximise space and efficiency while also giving potential for further future uses, I made the bridge expandable linearly allowing for an immediate increase in space.

Theory-Open, Nature, Balance, Environmentally Sound



When constructing a contempary building especially within a university it is important to convey and reflect a sense of openess and unity, wherein a balance between nature and man-made is also essential to create an environmentally sound building that everyone can enjoy and interact within. It is also crucial to allow for expansion and the infinite potential to repurpose, thus outlasting generations of students to come.

Description 

The words that inspired my design for The_Kyza's upper workshop was geometric initially the draft was a very rough and sharp structure, however as you can see in the final design, the building flows very smoothly and yet has a distinct geometric pattern flowing through it. Wherein all the features and design of the building serve a very practical use and nothing is wasted, another heavy influence on the design was the idea of a brutilist structure, hence leading to its significant size and the feeling of rawness as one acends the stairs. Meanwhile on the ground floor it serves as the showroom for both The_Kyza and Mountain and Moon, it is a very open space that displays each respectives clients work in a unique and innovative way that also encorporates the surround architecture, allowing for a smooth transition from different spaces. On the underground floor is the Mountain and Moon workshop, inspired by the word flower, as seen from the final design it is a spiraling staircase that leads through the showroom, creating a sense of acension like growth as it leads to the surface, like a flower growing. In terms of the workshop, the benches and rest area spread out from the stairs like petals, continuing the motif of a flower.
