Aquatic Centre [2020]

Page 1

Shared space for different groups

In this design, it is proposed to build an aquatic centre, which will not only as a complement to surrounding sport facilities and venues, but also as a space for community intercation. The division according to function, space and form is conducive to extension of spatial meaning. On the premise of meeting the basic needs, create a positive shared

URBANspace

Pyrmont is an inner suburb that is undergoing considerable change with the construction of new civil projects as well as the expansion of the existing Sydney Fish Market. Additionally, with the future Metro transportation system in the region, the daily flow of people and the composition of the local population will certainly change as the size of the population grows. Therefore, there is a great opportunity to explore new mixed-use spaces.

Location: 14 26 Wattle Street, Pyrmont, NSW, Australia

This project proposes to build a mixed-use swimming, floating and leisure space on the former quarry site in Pyrmont for swimming teaching and local sporting events, with a range of facilities and supports areas. This project combines three aspects of function, form and space to practice the concept of "sharing space": split into two, from whole to part, from single to binary.

Site Analysis 1. Mainly residential and commercial buildings. road runs through north and south is vehicle only, no public transports. sport ground and the design area provides a shared-zone for two suburbs. huge terrain difference between two sides makes the proposed building form should try to conform to the surrounding landscape.

The spaces used for coaching and training, for hosting sporting events and for shared use by citizens vary considerably in function and form. Rather than mixing these requirements incongruously, separate them. Therefore, the aquatic centre is divided into two parts, one half to meet the needs of professional use and the other half to meet the needs of citizen participation. At the same time, they are connected in a way that creates a shared space between the groups.

2.Different boundaries need to be defined, so there are mainly two kinds of spanning timber frame are formed.

Step2. Dividing the site into two parts according to the building functions, and create a path in between.

Step3. The southeast part has standard poo(s) for professional uses, the area on the northwest side is for citizens sharing.

In the initial design stage of this project, there is this concept of Separation and Communication.

The idea of separation has been around for as long as human society has existed. By dividing spaces and people, the society creates orders and thus achieves great efficiencies Disrupting order causes troubles and chaos. Yet nowadays, people are pursuing more of connnection and communication They are no longer living independently. Interactions between different groups can bring more possibilites, and therefore creating different spaces that meet people's needs.

This Urban Oasis Pool project, has selected a community aquatic centre as an experimental sample to explore and practice the idea of shared space and life. From another perspective, water can also be seen as a symbol of bringing everything together. Water will not be separated by rocks, it will eventually find a way to come together as whole. The ultimate meaning of "shared" is to become "one" This is what this project really wants to express.
