CONCEPTUAL DEVELOPMENT: RANDOM ORDER

Model making in the Workshop:

Whilst making the model, I focused on creating a structure which mimicked the the randomness and chaos of the bridges trusses. Whilst these may appear at first to have no order, a pattern emerges from this chaos: a random order.

Here are some other brainstorming ideas about the site and my concept:
  • the rhythm and the structure of the bridge - lights and shadows and frames.
  • random order.
  • bring the beauty from above to the site and see the beauty of the structure from the bridge.
  • peaceful site - calm in the middle of the city, the site is a quiet spot amongst a busy area (valley/kangaroo point/bridge/river).
  • the site is a shelter, a refuge from the busy city.
  • it is a site of connectivity (3 elements join at the site).
  • the folie should remind one of/appreciate the beauty/views of the site (frame them).
  • the folie activates the site at night (site is isolated at night).
