PORFOLIO BARCH YEAR TWO SITE STRATEGIES
ROUTES AND CONNECTIONS CONNECTION TO PROPOSED PEDESTRIAN LINK TO CANALSIDE WALK
PROPOSED SUBWAY CONNECTING TO EXISTING GREEN SPACE
TO CANALSIDE WALK BY REINFORCING THE LINEARIITY WHICH EXISTS CURRENTLY THE SCHEME LOOKS TO CREATE VARIOUS ENCLOSED SPACES AND EMPHASISE ROUTES.
VIEW LOOKING TOWARDS LOCK GATES
THE SCHEME LOOKS TO LINK THE CANALSIDE TO THE TOWN IN THE NORTH EAST AND ALSO LINKS TO GREENSPACE TO THE SOUTH.
THE LANDSCAPE PROTECTS THE SITE FROM THE NOISE OF THE TRAFFICE TO THE SOUTH AND CREATES AN ENCLOSED AREA FOR ACTIVITY. THE NORTH ELEVATION ADDRESSES THE CANAL AND TOWN.

VIEWS AND ROUTES THE PLAN FORM USES LINEAR ELEMENTS TO CREATE VIEWS AND REINFORCE EXISTING ROUTES AROUND THE SITE. BY USING A LINEAR WALL WITH OPENINGS IN SPECIFIC PLACES IT IS INTENDED TO RE-DIRECT PEDESTRIANS AND ENCOURAGE PHYSICAL ACTIVITY.
TIERS OF ACTIVITY THE BUILDING IS SPLIT INTO TIERS OF ACTIVITY WITH THE CANALSIDE ADDRESSING THE STATIONARY ACTIVITIES WHILST ON THE MORE BUSY ROAD SIDE, THE MORE ENERGETIC ACTIVITIES TAKE PLACE.

SPINE WALLS TWO SPIN WALLS RUN THROUGH THE BUILDIING, WHICH ARE USED TO FRAME VIEWS, REINFORCE ROUTES AND THE LINEAR NATURE OF THE SITE. IT IS ALSO INTENDED AS A SERVICE CORE AND ALSO UTILISED AS A CLIMBING WALL.

THE MAIN SPINE WALL THAT RUNS THROUGH THE BUILDIING IS USED TO FRAME VIEWS, REINFORCE ROUTES AND THE LINEAR NATURE OF THE SITE. AS AN IMPORTANT ELEMENT I THOUGH IT PERTINANT TO INVESTIGATE HOW THE WALL WOULD BE CONSTRUCTED.

STRUCTURAL DEVELOPMENT
IN ORDER TO ACHEIVE A CONTINOUS BRICK AESTHETIC TO THE TOP EDGE OF THE SPINE WALL IT WAS NECESSARY TO INVESTIGATE METHODS OF COPING. THE DECISION WAS TAKEN TO BUILD UP 4 COURSES ABOVE AND CUT BRICKS TO FIT USING A 20MM MORTAR JOINT.

LOW CARBON MATERIALS WERE CHOSEN IN ORDER TO COMPLIMENT THE SUSTAINABLE HEALTH AGENDA OF THE SCHEME.
GLULAM CHERRY WOOD WAS PICKED FOR ITS RICH NATURAL COLOUR AND STRUCTURAL PROPERTIES WHICH ARE SIMILAR TO OAK, THE WOOD WOULD BE AS SOURCED AS LOCALLY AS POSSIBLE.
RECLAIMED BRICK
1. RECLAIMED BRICK SPINE WALL
IN ORDER TO SYMPATHISE WITH THE SURROUNDINGS RECLAIMED BRICKS ARE CHOSEN AS THE AGING OF THESE BRICK OVER TIME. CREATES AN AUTHENTIC, TIME WORN AESTHETIC AND CONJURES UP THE FEELING OF A CENTURY OLD STRUCTURE.

STONE STONE IS USED TO COMPLIMENT THE AESTHETIC OF THE BRICK SPINE WALL AND TO PROVIDE CONNECTION TO THE GLULAM STRUCTURE, IT ALSO PROVIDES STRUCTURAL RIGIDITY.
CEDAR SHINGLES CEDAR SHINGLES ARE CHOSEN FOR BOTH ROOF AND EXTERNAL WALL CLADDING DUE TO THE FACT THEY WEAR IN OVER TIME CREATING AN INTERESTING PATINA.

ENVIRONMENTAL SITE SECTION
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT IN ORDER TO ASSESS THE WIDER IMPACT OF THE BUILDING ON THE ENVIRONMENT IT WOULD BE NECESSARY TO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE BUILDINGS EFFECT UPON CHANGING THE LIFESTYLES OF PEOPLE WHO USE THE BUILDING. CHANGING MINDS WILL LEAD TO CARBON SAVINGS THROUGH PROMOTING SUSTAINABLE TRANSPORT AND EASING THE FINANCIAL STRAIN ON THE NHS.. BY PROMOTING HEALTHY LIFESTYLE AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY A MORE SUSTAINABLE FUTURE CAN BE ACHIIEVED. HEALTHIER PEOPLE MEANS LESS RESOURCES USED ON TREATMENT AND THEREFORE LESS WASTE, BOTH IN ECONOMIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL TERMS.
