SEVENDALE HOUSE
Shifting from one contextual state to another, Northern Quarter presents a new approach to defining key elements of the surrounding environment, shifting from the inherent industrial heritage to a context defined by individual artistic interventions that shape it to fit the needs of its inhabitants. Because of the preservation character, the attention does not fall on restructuring the area but on adaption, the site being developed under a continuous progression from past to

present. This relates to Richard Sennett’s idea of growth through adaption rather than erasure. This would be the case of buildings close to the site that switched function and through social interventions, changed appearance as well. The contemporary heritage of Northern Quarter relies on the creative interventions and refitting of the industrial volumes for community related programmes.
LANDMARK
35 DALE STREET
SEQUENTIAL APPROACH Under the influence of a preestablished rectangular grid, the streets leading to the site suggest key spaces and local landmarks that guide and define a gradual progression to the site on Dale Street, where the buildings act as artefacts that preserve the ornamental qualities. At the same time, alignment and similar scales of heights present the opportunity for a definition between the street level and the skyline.

MUSEUM OF ADAPTION The View of The City Inwards
The Museum of Adaption embodies the intention of converging the essence of Northern Quarter as an artistic realm inwards into a structure that documents its character. Based on how Northern Quarter had a shift from an industrial heritage that now acts as a canvas for individuals to perform artistic interventions, enriching the surroundings, the Museum acts as an inventory of relevant urban artefacts and at the same time contributes by facilitating art related activities in a layout that encourages interaction and communitarian values. Using different architectural motifs and concepts, the Museum of Adaption channels into a scripted journey that guides the visitors through the spaces which are defined to have different aesthetic and environmental conditions to match certain states of mind and enhance immersion. The artefacts themselves are either new creations from artists based in the region or preservation of existing artefacts facilitating a timeless inventory of exhibits, thus defining a view inwards of the city in the Museum.

HIERARCHY OF SPACES One of the main strategies in the general arrangement of the building is the attempt to enhance the concept of gradual ascension throughout the building, making use of a central void that acts as a converging point that defines a coordination tool in the overall journey.

The informality of the public-private spaces aims to reflect on the character of Norther Quarter, bringing together the idea of community and interaction between different types of users of the building. Therefore, even though there is a separation between private accessed spaces and the public ones the overall open plan layout encourages activities destined for visitors and staff such as the workshops and auditoriums.

The main creative driver in the definition of the programme of the building is the concept of a gradual progression of the spaces, the overall strategy of the Museum focusing on a journey that engages with each individual space. Similar to the case of Kunsthal by OMA in Rotterdam, the stairs play an important connection role which open into deliberately scripted views and exhibition spaces. Moreover, as the Museum opens to different choices that users can interact with, the Ground floor atrium offers opportunities that the visitors in the journey can opt for, which focus back into a main path throughout the exhibitions. The progression is unidirectional upwards, shifting from dramatic sceneries to more welcoming exhibitions, trying to envisage different atmospheres, from narrow alleyways to open welcoming spaces.

In order to define a connection between the underground and the sky, the courtyard of the Museum incorporates typological translucent tiles that, in connection with the rooflights aligned in design and grid channel natural light to the underground level where the main artefact of the building, the model of Northern Quarter with identified informal artefacts.
The courtyard acts as the main converging location within the building and a democratic space designated for contemplation in the journey that the users engage with. At the same time, the colonnades and the windows that maintain the consistency of the grid allow for overlooking inbetween floor and interaction with the rest of the Museum.

As part of the strategy that engages with overlooking and vertical connection between spaces, the lightwell presents an architectural motif for natural lighting and space binder that channel into the processional stairs located on the ground floor. Therefore, an aesthetic effect is created while at the same time the coordination of the journey is increased.
In order to raise the attention of the sequential journey and increase interactivity with different scales and volumes, the spaces designated for exhibitions include cut-outs that allow for overlooking on adjacent floors. Disclosures and glimpses in the next steps of the journey are created in this way, inviting the users to complete the journey.

MIXED MEDIA ARTEFACTS
The Museum of Adaption aims to gather its artistic sources from Northern Quarter context, exhibiting pieces of public art that define the context as an artistic environment. Because of the fact that the zone shifted from an industrial related context to an artistic one which uses the old industrial infrastructure as a canvas, the main exhibitions will include key reproductions of the artistic interventions that define the context. Exhibition spaces range from painting and mural reproductions to sculptures and mixed media creations, illustrating a range of opportunities that can be chosen from. At the same time, this falls in line with the complexity of programmes and actions of the surroundings of the site, emulating its rich diversity inwards, in the Museum.

MATERIALITY STUDY The overall strategy of the materials in the Museum of Adaption focuses on the gradual progression upwards, shifting from climactic surroundings to open harmonious atmospheres. The main materials used are the concrete and brickwork, two earthy but at the same time heavy materials which play different roles in the overall sensation of the spaces. Users following the journey interact with a gradually increasing lightness of the spaces from the underground levels to the top level, experiencing different emotions.

ENSEMBLE ABSTRACT REPRESENTATION OF THE EXHIBITION IN THE COURTYARD
The courtyard acts as a pivoting role in the layout of the Museum, acting both as an exhibition space and a coordinator in the journey that the users engage with. This visual representation aims to capture a glimpse of the journey, framing the interaction between the exhibition floors and the textile exhibition in the courtyard. Informality is a key concept in the cooperation of the spaces, being able to observe different key spaces through the windows and the balconies extruding in the central atrium.
INTRODUCTION ABSTRACT REPRESENTATION OF THE TEMPORARY GALLERY SPACE ON GROUND FLOOR
One of the important aspects to tackle in defining a clear circulation within the spaces was the general access stairs that invite the visitors to engage with the journey. Framed by the temporary exhibition of the ground floor, the processional stairs guiding the users upwards to the exhibition spaces makes a statement by taking a central definitory space. The visual representation tries to consider interaction through colonnades and clear communication of the journey.
INTERLUDE ABSTRACT REPRESENTATION OF COURTYARD SEEN FROM THE PROCESSIONAL STAIRS
Similar to the ‘Ensemble’ visual representation, the Interlude embodies a more personal stance, trying to represent a break from the journey to contemplate and observe the atrium and the textile exhibition. Due to the fact that the journey entitles a progression and change of emotions, this collage describes an individual contemplative view into the courtyard through the stairs.

STRUCTURAL STUDY
In order to assure structural integrity, the building utilises a concrete frame structure braced by shear walls that enclose the central courtyard. Inspired by the ‘Domino’ principle developed by Le Corbusier, that entitles open plan spaces supported by structural elements on the perimeter, the span is defined on a grid coordinated by the central courtyard which facilitates spans without intermediary structure, allowing for continuous open exhibitions that acts as corridors in the overall circulation scheme.

CONTEXTUAL VIEWS FROM DALE STREET
ENVELOPE STUDY One of the main concepts that dictates the design of the envelope involves creating the illusion of a monolithic floating structure. The perimeter of the building is is surrounded by curtain walls that enhance the connection between the streetscape and the internal activities of the building, defining an invitation to gather. In order to create the presence of a heavy load building, the main materials used are concrete and brick, two heavy materials that connect the Museum with a primary elemental state.
SKETCHES DOCUMENTING ENVELOPE ITERATIONS
CONTEXTUAL VIEW OF THE DEFINITORY ITERATION
COURTYARD COORDINATION
During the envelope development of the Museum, one definitory concept that has been followed in principle is the coordination of the internal courtyard to the outside of the building, communicating a transparency of the internal layout to the streetscape. Because the overall strategy is to divulge, through the concrete frame, the offset of floors and verticality of the spaces, the highlighted prefabricated panels that slot into the concrete frame aim to communicate both the exhibition spaces and the courtyard coordination. The visuals presented showcase process in different brick binding techniques that break the grid and offer a different aesthetic condition to the envelope.

A key concept in defining the envelope is represented by disclosure of the internal strategy to the outside through the envelope. The central bay from the elevation facing Dale Street intends to divulge the layout of the processional stairs through glazing lines while at the same time it defines a reconnection to the surroundings in the overall progression of the journey. Moreover, in terms of environmental strategies, this attempts to channel more passive and active natural lighting to the courtyard, enhancing the illumination condition and defining it as a welcoming space.
Inspired by the Nottingham Contemporary by Caruso St John, the curtain wall on the ground floor segmented by the concrete frame includes a representation of a motif gathered from the gate in 20 Dale Street, a detail in wrought iron that in the Museum of Adaption is stylized in concrete, suggesting a transformation and evolution of materials and at the same time defines an archway over Dale street.

1:50 INTERNAL STUDY The first 1:50 physical model describes the ground floor temporary exhibition space where the first processional stair can be seen. There is a contrast in materiality from the floor and columns to the colonnades of the courtyards in order to enhance an informal contrast and coordinate the atrium as a pivoting space in the overall scheme of the Museum.

Moreover, this model attempts to express the connection between the exhibition space and the courtyards as a coordination element, visualised in the balcony photograph. The processional stairs are represented in direct connection with the envelope bay disrupted by glazing lines, emulating lighting conditions on the stairs and connection to the outside realm.

LEVEL -2 Archive Timeline Scale 1:100 [A2]
As it embodies the beginning of the journey, the -2 level focuses on creating a dramatic atmosphere of underlit exhibition spaces, inducing a sensation of limitation and enclosure. This is reflected through the use of rough and dark textures in the material finishes to enhance the experience. The space includes an archive which is experienced as a timeline, progressing through the journey and time.

As the scripted journey channels upwards, the stairs closely interact with the central atrium, reconnecting and coordinating the users. The first level includes an auditorium designated for lectures that can be interacted with from the stairs, presenting the opportunity to engage with the activities or continue the journey. Moreover, on the North wing, the level includes a public workshop enclosed by glazing expressing diversity in actions and interactions.

SECTION AA’ 1:100 [A2] As pictured in the sectional view of the Museum, there is a strong connection in between floors dictated by the central atrium, shifting from colonnades to rectangular openings. This decision is deliberate in order to distinguish the exhibition spaces from the upper floors which represent an individual process in the journey from the lower levels which focus on interaction and community.

STRUCTURE RESOLUTION The structural strategy has both the intent to assure structural strategy and at the same time it represents a creative opportunity in the development of the scheme. Inspired by the ‘Domino’ principle, the exhibition floors open to the public by allowing free movement, interrupted only by the central atrium consisting of shear walls and the processional stairs that are supported by the floor slabs. The concrete frame structure is reflected on the envelope to disclose inner workings of the layout and show a glimpse into the journey within the Museum.
