This model depicts the primary structure consisting of standard steel construction paired with high tech steel trusses that form the main atrium space. In order to pair these together there is a raft foundation alongside pile foundation underneath to support the structure on the soft ground of the man made dock. These high tech steel trusses integrate with secondary structure to hold up the ‘Overhead’ bridge that crosses along the building. The bridge sits in the vertical truss where there is a gap, this is braced in each corner and spans a width of 2m.

Timber Workshop Cruck Structure
Throughout timber workshop, I wanted to emulate a form of iconic timber vernacular which presented itself as a Cruck structure. This medieval construction form was typically used in barns but allowed me to create a large open space that spanned a larger distance. As the structure took the entire load of the roof, it allowed transparency in the side facades.

A Place For Crafting Figure Skating Blade Workshop
Throughout a place for crafting I tried to find ways of expressing my chosen craft of skating blades via motifs and materiality. This transpired through frosted glass to mimic ice and aluminium louves as blades etc.
