Weekly Progress Works

When i want to know the site context  deeply, then i try to build 3d digital model and physic model according to the site topography i got at the moment, 

Firstly, i used different color to indicated the fall of different level  basically from 12m to 2m, thus, i can see the have a approximately 6m falling from Market street to Parramatta river. 

Physical Model of the site context 

Below is one option for my theater activities scenario, in this case, i focus on 
how to subdivided the theater space and open space and  use triangular circulation lines to connected each separated buildings according to the urban context. 

As a result, i create several routes for visitors or artists walk around, 

to be more specific, i intent to bring the Market street and Parramatta river together, then design a large ramp to be the open space for people walking from upper level to lower  level.

Another options using Diamond shape try to create interactive routes around the site 

Contract vs Expand 

Compare last scheme this is more like outspread to each side, as you can see the four arrows indicated the expansion of activities.

Project 3 part 1 Submission

            In this project, we try to figure out a conceptual idea which can beautifully fit with the site context. My core idea is try to create integrated architectural spaces for theatre activities and specific music connected with the site context. as we all know, there are simply about 1000 square meters for the theatre space Compare with the huge open space in this site. In other words, the area of site is over sixfold larger than the space of theatre, which i should be carefully take advantage of these open space rather demolish it without reason.

Main Features:

1 try to create several connections between church street, market street and marsden street. when visitors get into from church street and have multiple options get out either from marsden st or market st. thus, it can bring people a variety experience.

2 wide open space between each part of  buildings  like cafe, small & larger theatre and rehearsal space etc. thus, i want to defined a relaxing and dynamic feeling when people  from public space to private space.
