*CHARRETTE: Working with architects, artists, engineers, designers and academics students challenge the theme of the year through a creative process. The week plays a key role in helping to establish Newcastle’s multidisciplinary creative driven studio culture and encourages students from across the School to mix, share and build connections.

CHAR RETTE Wallpaper is often seen as a background element, an ephemeral, easily replaced backdrop to domestic life. What does wallpaper represent? Each group will design a repeat pattern, centred on a theme of their on choosing, which comments on current societal issues.

I S O L AT E / M E D I AT E / A N I M AT E

Concept To address the idea of imagination in reality on a wallpaper in a child’s bedroom for this particular design brief of Print, Shift, Repeat.

Imagination is not always a cheerful and bright when turned into reality as there is a dark side to every positive form.

1 Lino rubber stamps

The elements of the design - clouds, ships and sea - were specified to be simple and icon-like to represent the innocence of a child. The sky and sea on the other hand, represents the limitations of imagination in reality. The background, which is the sea , is cut in gradient of different tones in contrast to the playful shade of blue.

Concept The for m of the Boathouse Cafe is heavily dictated by negative spaces of the trees on site. Designed to gradually erect from the ground up, platfor m contours were created for a visual and experiential connection between nature and manmade space.

The building key elements and material develops the idea of inside-outside with the use experience in mind.

for total sensory experience.

Materiality The idea of inside-outside is explored further by prioritising the user experience and it is enhanced even more so by the consistent use of wood trellises as the skin of the building.

Material explorations and precedent study are an important part of the final design.

Precedent Study Shared Services of Plaine Commune Media Libraries

by Antonini Darmon Architects

The unique facade filters light and views from the inside and outside. It has qualities of openness in a building with its surrounding context. Having just one material consistently to cover the building brings about a 360 degrees experience for the user internally and externally which I want to incorporate in my design.

Leith, Edinburgh - Scotland, UK

physical model 1:500 green spaces

site analysis

Although Leith has always been Edinburgh’s port, it nonetheless has a distinctive quality of its own, historically more reflective of the typical characteristics of

physical neighbourhood

port conurbations throughout the world.

massing

Decline of heavy industry and use of the port led to negative perceptions of the area. However, it has changed significantly since the 80s and 90s.

Leith is now building impressively on its water front ambience and re-inventing itself as a lively hub of urban living, stylish food and drink establishments, creative activity and cultural diversity, but still with enough “edge” to differentiate it from Central Edinburgh.

These positive aspects and successes offer foundations for the way to Leith’s future.

“I like how multicultural Leith is, but this diversity isn’t also seen in the age range. I am worried that large housing developments encourage more and chain stopres to the area and squeeze us independents out.”

“I live here but work in Edinburgh, so spend most of my time there. To be honest I only really sleep here because there’s so much more to do in town.”

- Local Shopkeeper

“New builds don’t currently incorporate social areas or open spaces in to the design. I know the park is close but small informal spaces would be ideal.”

- Local

“I’ve lived here for 36 years and have seen little positive change to the area, although things have changed a lot in this time, maybe too much.“ - Local

“Leith is a great place to shoot as it has such great connections to Edinburgh. The history of the area is very interesting too.”
