Site

The Castle Market is a complex building which built by the needs and through the time.

1 1960’s Multi-stories Complex Building

the later built build of Castle Market was the 1960’s multi-stories building constructed with the concrete frame and covered with glass curtain wall.

2 1930 Fish & Meat Market

The early con- struction of the Castle Market was starting with the 1930’s Fish & Meat market which is mainly formed by steel structure, glass and timber window on the roof.

Spolia

The demolition of a building in a nearby street provided old bricks, which form a substrate material for the project and set an example for material reuse as a standard for new construction, or ‘cultural retrofitting’. According to Drozdov & Partners, ‘In this way the new building passes on historical “flesh” and cultural code.’ Not only does the building immerse itself in the historical urban context through materials, it also blends almost seamlessly with the contemporaneous neighbourhood fabric with its com- positional structure – a stealth building of sorts, quite possibly able to remain undetected and overlooked by the general popula- tion, if not closely scrutinized. ~ Drozdov & Partners, Ukrainian Architecture Studio

Spolia

Spolia is an ancient Rome term, reflects to an action which build a new building with the salvaged architectural elements from another previous construction. Normally, the decorative artistic elements such as beautiful plaster would be the most significant elements to be embedded in the new coming-up construction. The main purpose is to express the power of Roma empire.

The following benefits are saving time to build up and also consuming less new materials. In another words, it’s a re-using process, rather than re-cycle.

MEMORY The connection between the saved component and the citizens is touching the human emotion. The emotion is also a sector which would effect the judgement of its value.

REUSE

VALUE

The capability of the rescued elements would be revealed basing on the possibility of how to reuse them. If everything is designed by its life cycle, it would keep its value.

The value of the Spolia object would be criticised in the future, not now. However, how to keep or increase its value are a trick issue because the society context is always changed through the time.

SPOLIA

POLITIC

RECYCLE

Strength of the message behind the visible salvaged object. In the ancient Roma, Spolia is one method to reveal the power. In addition, what it would be to the second meaning of reusing a recyclable item today?

The process of recycle contains to in put the extra ingredients and energy to complete. Therefore, the embody energy is increasing, and also, the value is changed.

RELOCATING The approach method of how to relocate the salvaged elements, including the technic, the transportion, etc.

Deconstruction

Roger Hiorns, 2008/2013, Seizure

After the exhibition in London, Roger Hiorns cuted the whole council flat unit out and transported it to Yorkshire sculpture park for another long term exhibition.

Gordon Matta Clark, 2010, Urban Alchemy

Artist Gordon Matta Clark is famous by salvaging a whold architectural element, inculding wall, stair, door and floor structure and moving it into the museum for demostrating unfamiliar aspect of the buildings to audiences.

Richard Wilson, 2011, Turning the Place Over

In 2011 Liverpool Biennial, Richard Wilson made a large scale art work with an abandoned contemporary concrete frame building and treated the whole building as one object. By cutted off a part of facade and made it could be rotated, make a normal boring block building to interact with passerbies.

Reclaim concrete column and beam in a piece, not aggregates and steel bars. The advantaged are reducing energy for demolition and embody energy for casting into another concrete frame building in the future. The side benefit is saving fuel energy for transporting the waste far away at the same time.

Hammer Drill

Electric Screwdriver Portable Cut-Off Saw

Step 1. Allocate the Acro bars around columns, under beams and the concrete slab.

Step 2. Seat up the deconstruction zone, a temporary storage room and a portable lounge space for the workers to work and rest.

Step3. Use hammer drillers to dig down concrete slabs and electric screwdriver to break beams and columns.

Step 4. Use portable cut-off saw to cut the steel bars and finish

Reclaimed Materials

The initial concept of SPOLIA Institution was starting with retaining a part of Castle Market: the 1930’s market, keeping the layered-up storied area, and removing some away: the 1960’s multi-stories office building, releasing the land for a visionary development.

The Castle Market is a complex building which built by the needs and through the time. The early con- struction of the Castle Market was starting with the 1930’s Fish & Meat market which is mainly formed by steel structure, glass and timber window on the roof; the later built build of Castle Market was the 1960’s multi-stories building constructed with the concrete frame and covered with glass curtain wall. Basing on the need of SPOLIA Institution, keeping the 1930’s Fish & Meat market and transforming it into a warehouse for storing the salvaged architecture elements and displaying those objects for exhibition and sale. Meanwhile, the demolition of 1960’s multi-stories building would be a typic example for rep- resenting the deconstruction of the modern architecture.

Through this thesis project, it would be a good chance to set up a standard demolition plan of deconstructing the modern architecture.
