Project Description
Urban Stage
Sustainability, Social Sustainability, Movement, Isolation.
I want my scheme to be built in a sustainable manner - both socially and in terms of materials. The area is being developed rapidly so I designed with this in mind; providing a space for the extra 1:150 houses that will be built.
I believe I achieved sustainability through: the use of the concrete used (80% of cement substituted with GGBS), designing with a secondary use in mind (a spiritual space), etc.
During this project I tried experimenting with form, the process of concrete casting, and movement around my design. I think this made an interesting outcome although it could be further explored in the future.
