Hi All,
Another set of challenges today inspired by Tom. 'Expect the unexpected' might be an appropriate phrase.
I'll continue to work on the 5 elements until we have something that Tom is happy with. I'll follow his suggestions 'to the letter' and show and tell to the group. I'll also tweak the storyboard to reflect the comments so far and this can hopefully sit in the background until its needed while we work on other more pressing tasks.
So moving forward everyone should come to the class next week with sketches of the site in 300 years time (and 30 years if you wish) that show the 5 elements of the site - so sketches of riverside use, dockside use, housing, commercial and industrial buildings, greenways, landscape (greenrooves, green bridges, streets, parks, agriculture) and landform. There is plenty of reference material around (see indicative reading in the brief) to inspire.
We can look at these designs next week and discuss the vision plan that Lili is producing for us. All this should help with modelling the site which we can do once we have settled on a final vision plan and designs.
In addition to sketches, there were some specific actions for individuals as follows:
Lili - a vision plan
Simon - 5 elements diagrams, tweak then upload the storyboard to skydrive
Athanase - 2 powerpoint slides on history and some sketches of the site showing its history
If anyone wants to bring additional models that would be very helpful as the brief refers to models at this stage in the program. Also, if anyone has experience of cost plans it would be helpful if they could share this with the group.
Stevie could not make the meeting because he was looking for new accomodation so i'll discuss the work with him ahead of next week.
s.
