SITE ANALYSIS MACRO The site is located at the edge of Ancoats, Piccadilly Basin and Northern Quarter areas. The areas are densely urbanized, however, the site provides large open space.
15min 10
The area around the site is devoid of any parks and open green areas. A row of several trees can be found within the site and on the opposite side of the canal.
5
The canal links the city centre and a modern and trendy New Islington Marina with a footpath along its course. The design should open up towards the pedestrians along the water feature.
The site is located by the busy and sound polluting Great Ancoats St. Due to system of one-way roads the site can be accessed via Ducie Street or Tariff Street from the city centre.
02 | 2 . 1 . 1
There are a lot of commercial areas including a retail park near the site attracting customers from around the city. The neighbourhood has a growing population with multiple ongoing residential developments.
The site is located at the edge of densely urbanized area and family neighbourhoods. The target clients are young adults.
The city centre and the train stations are within short walking distance. It can be expected a lot of visitors will come by foot.

The prevailing wind mostly takes a western direction. The buildings near the site can easily cause funnel effect resulting in strong wind blows. The entrance needs to be wind shielded to prevent draughts. Other two entrances would allow visitors to enter through the bridge f rom the retail park and f rom the parking area north to the site.

The site used to be a saw mill. To reflect on the history of the area timber should be considered as the main structural material.
In recent years the area has seen new development. Thus the reduction of wild green areas occurred. The project therefore, needs to incorporate more greener y.

EAT GREEN COLLAGE OF IDEAS AND INTENTIONS The Eat Green project reintroduces the f resh vegetable food concept to the young people of the district. Reducing the consumption of meat allows us to be more sustainable. The project aims to evoke the willingness to consume fresh and organic produce. Farmer's Market allows vendors to sell their vegetables directly to young people eliminating the need for a middle man. The Food Hall is meant to inspire the visitors to cook without meat, while promoting the Cooking Workshops.
16 | 2 . 1 . 2
The Eat Green project also aims to improve sustainability by prohibiting the use of non-reusable packaging.

The sustainibility of the project is even implented in the way the resources are used at Eat Green. The f resh produce delivered to the Farmer's Market provides ingredients for Cooking Workshops. After the Farmer's Market closes the unsold vegetables are used in the Green Kitchen eleminating food waste.

FLOW OF VISITORS CONCEPT IDEAS RESPECTING THE FLOW OF PEOPLE

18 | 2 . 1 . 2
The inf rastructure around encourages people to cross through the site. The design of the hall needs to give a connecting path between the car parks, retail park, and the city centre.
The flow of people can be divided into the quick flow of people crossing through the site and the people interested in Eat Green concept willing to stay for longer. This division drives the design concept of the project.

AXIS PROGRAMME STRUCTURE
24 | 2 . 1 . 2
Östermalm Market Hall follows a rectangular programme pattern. This allows for an easy flow of people across the hall which sits over an old market square
Santa Caterina Market in Barcelona connects strategically placed entrance points. The less rectangular plan invites the visitors to wonder around and encourages movement through several paths
The idea behind Eat Green plan is to linearly connect strategically placed entrance points while providing the visitors and encourages them to use different paths and walk around. This is driven by the idea of connecting paths and axis
TWO APPROACHES THE CONCEPT BEHIND BASE PLAN CONCEPT
25
|
2.1.2
Before approaching the programme f igure iterations, alternative layouts of the paths and axes were considered. This became the star ting point of the iterations.
Another more organic approach was also considered to symbolize the purpose of the project as well as respect the natural flow of people accross the site. This became the alternative base for the iterations.
PROGRAMME ITERATIONS Initially, the plan follows the square cross distribution. The kitchen, which could be used to attract visitors is not displayed to people passing by the street.
GROUND FLOOR vice Core Ser Access to Cooking Workshops
Plant room
This iteration pushes the market street too far from the range of the pedestrians. Therefore, less clients would be attracted to the market.

Alternating the plan on a m o re o rg a n i c g r i d creates interesting space and induces an organic feeling of the structure.

2.1 Hubert Sokolowski
FROM PROGRAMME TO VOLUMES EXPANDING THE PROGRAMME INTO THE THIRD DIMENSION AND UPPER FLOORS To ensure the volumetric structure respects the programme a concept massing experimentation was necessary.
27
|
2.1.2
Resulting volumetric conf iguration was expanded upwards creating volumes f rom the features of the plan.
The first floor was set on top to accommodate the Cooking Workshops. This block, however, blocks a lot of light from reaching the market beneath.
The atria were then cut out to provide more natural light to the lower levels. The resulting massing model is ready to be iterated.
28 | 2 . 1 . 2
REFINING THE VOLUMES
The massing model went through iterative process where the volumes were rearranged in various ways. The initial volumetric model was taken from earlier massing diagram. This space was then combined with the ideas of transferring the programme into volumes. This allowed to implement primary design ideas while respecting the developed programme.
The resulting massing model creates a unique space with various opened and enclosed volumes. It provides a lot of natural light into different areas of the structure while recognising the common paths that visitors would be expected to take. While the orange long stay areas are enclosed the green open spaces need to be protected with the canopy.
N AT U R A L LIGHTING SKETCH MODEL ON SITE AT 1:200
The physical sketch model allowed to understand how light would affect different spaces in the design.
29
|
2.1.2
The model also allowed to test the idea of canopy acting as an atrium over main market space.
FROM GEOMETRY TO "BLOB" DESIGN DEVELOPMENT OF THE CANOPY To enclose the open areas and prevent precipitation and wind from entering the structure a protective layer needed to developed. The canopy became an opportunity to symbolize the organic intentions of the Eat Green project.
Canopy over sketch model
30 | 2 . 1 . 2
At first the volumetric model was covered in a polygonal shell with rough edges.
The atrium skylight was then added to allow more light inside.
The smoothed edges of the polygonal shape create the concept of "blob"
The model was used to experim ent with space perception.
DESIGN PERCEPTION SITE APPROACH FROM PERSPECTIVE VIEW The site can be approached from different streets and angles. The building is exposed from certain viewpoints while remains hidden from other perspectives.
CA
NA L
The concept for the design was to create a structure which stands out from the surrounding development. With the organic feel of its shape, the dynamic looking structure initiates an open dialogue with the surrounding .buildings.
TA
RI
The Eat Green project had to speak for itself, inviting visitors with its uniqe shape resembling an object shaped by nature.

2.1.2
The structure sits along the canal enriching the environment with its curious curves. The project needs to stand out and attract visitors walking along the path linking the city centre with New Islington.

LIGHT ATRIUM
The design concept takes inspiration f rom Barton Arcade in Manchester. The atrium lets in the light to ground floor while limiting the impact of direct sunlight on the f resh produce of the market. The axis of the plan were aligned with the mean sunpaths throughtout the year to let in the light at different times of the day to different spaces used.

COOK GREEN WORKSHOPS DEVELOPING SPACE TO IMPROVE SOCIAL INTERACTION
The design concept for the workshops is meant to improve interaction between the chef and the visitors themselves. The workshops distance themselves f rom the idea of regular cooking school teaching, as the experience is much more social and casual. The idea for the workshops was inspired by a cooking studio experience in Poznan, Poland. The layout of the kitchen invites the attendees to walk around a socialize. After the food is prepared there is a shared dinning area for the participants to eat together meals they have cooked.

The f irst floor follows the outlines of the ground floor. The red axis links the studios with the main staircase, as well as, lets in more light to the floor.
The path from the staircase to studios is reduced and made more intuitive by bending the red axis.
This iteration introduces the staff area space to the floor while placing the fourth studio on the floor above.
The last iteration brings back the studio to organize and simplify the floor u s a g e . A d d i t i o n a l l y, a redundant space is cut out to provide more lighting to the market stalls below.
RESOLVING PLAN SECOND FLOOR ITERATIONS

2.1.2
The first iteration is overlayed on top of the f irst floor. It follows the idea of staff area located on the floor below, while locating the fourth studio on this floor.
Simplifying floor arrangement the second floor becomes an administrative area with staff facilities. The facilities overlook the market hall.
This iteration reintroduces the red axis to the floor in order to open up the floor to open space of the market.
The last iteration introduces the idea of an all-year garden sitting on top of studio. This garden would be purposed to grow herbs which can be used in the studio workshops below.

2.1.2
The initial section was drawn to understand how lighting affects the interior. This section also sees the height of the market hall initally set at 4.5 m and led to the adjusment of the space to 5.6 m to provide more breathing space.
Grid aligned with the city grid. The shaded area shows the attempt to align the supporting structure of the canopy with the street and site boundaries.
Grid aligned with the plan context. The placement of the columns along the main atrium resulted in columns being placed in the middle of the stalls.
Grid aligned with the plan axes. The placement of columns in the middle of walkways and stalls would render an unpleasant design.
STRUCTURAL GRID (NOT) A SOLUTION? EXPERIMENTING WITH REGULAR GRID
42 | 2 . 1 . 2
To support the structure of the upper floors and the canopy various structural grid solutions were considered. From this experimentation it was concluded that due to irregular nature of the plan the grid could not follow a simple regular pattern.
Taking inspiration f rom Östermalm Market Hall, the timber columns would support the facade and the canopy.
The columns would be mounted to the ground using steel anchoring system. This long lasting elements can be repurposed f rom and later in other structures.
STRUCTURAL RESOLUTION 43
|
2.1.2
IRREGULAR GRID PATTERN
The structural solution to the complex nature of the plan was to examine the upper levels and place support columns at the edges of the floor. This allowed for a more organized grid with columns not interrupting the programme or flow.
44 | 2 . 1 . 2
ARRANGING THE FACADE
The initial facade is fully glazed with curved U Glass at rounded edges. This solution, however, increases the cost of the structure and results in a lot of direct sunlight entering the structure.
This iteration sees the upper floors of workshops and workshops entrance hall covered with light diffusing polycarbonate sheeting. The glazing on the ground floor remains to improve interior-exterior connection.
The upper floors of the facade covered in polycarbonate sheeting result in excessive heat loss in long stay areas.
The resolution sees fully glazed ground floor and fully glazed long stay areas with improved heating conditions.

FACADE DETAIL 1:50 Corrugated Polycarbonate Sheeting The material diffuses direct sunlight and provides a weather resistant layer. The gel coating prevents the sheets from delaminating and yellowing. The material is lightweight and relatively cheap, therefore easy to mount and a being a suitable material to cover large facade. Polycarbonate can be pretensioned making the material suitable for cladding over curved surfaces. Glulam structure Glulam beams and columns are composed of multiple layers of laminated wood improving the overall strength and stress capabilities. The versatility of the material allows for the construction of curved columns. When resourced reasonably the material has a small environmental impact. Glulam can also be reused and recycled. Double glazed array The glazing allows for full translucency and improving the connection between the interior and the exterior.
56 | 2 . 1 . 3
Along the facade facing the canal and the Brownsfield Mill the glazing system is operable to improve ventilation of the facility, further improving the connection between the inside and the outside.

CLIMATE CHANGE RESPONSE Isolated heating The Eat Green space is divided into heated cores for Long Stay visitors and staff areas which are properly insulated. In areas of Short Stay reduced heating occurs to limit the overall energy waste. Sustainable materials Materials used were selected to have a small environmental impact. Many of the materials can also be reused and recycled for future projects or can be sourced f rom derelict structures. The structure uses a timber frame. Food source and circulation The purpose of the Eat Green project is to reduce environmental impact by convincing people to eat less meat. The facility also limits food waste by using not sold fresh produce in the kitchen areas. Natural light Eat Green was designed to maximise the use of natural light reducing the need for artificial lighting

WHERE IS THE GREENERY?
PEDESTRIAN FLOW
NOISE POLLUTION
GREEN AREAS
Most of the pedestrian flow is concentrated along Oldham Street. Restaurants, shops, pubs and entertainment venues are attracting people to the area.
The night-life venues along the road attract visitors and create noise pollution in the evening. The design for residential structure needs to insulate the residents from the streets.
The are seems to be devoid of any greenery. Only in some places limited number of trees or shrubs can be found. The site requires development of green areas which can help reduce noise pollution.

R
The site has a great exposition potential for the wide use natural light from the south.
The site can be easily accessed by foot as it lies right in the city centre and next to a bus stop. The design should embrace pedestrian movement.
There is a bike path located along the site allowing for easy access. Residents are going to require a bicycle storage.

Cafeteria at the Nursing House
The different precedents help to understand the need for the balance between introvert and communal living. Both precedents have dedicated shared and private areas which allow the residents to interact and isolate when needed. It is necessary for New [Old]ham to identify the balance between shared and private spaces.

The first arrangement with the shared facilities on the ground floor creates a strange cut out in the place where an open terrace would be located.
The second arrangement places the shared areas at an equal distance from the flats. This arrangement also creates an eerie cut out in the facade of the building.
The last arrangement provides the opportunity to fully open up the communal kitchen floor without creating a strange facade shape.

3 Connecting Core
The circulation was improved by moving the connecting core to the side of the building. This arrangment also solved the issue of the emergency exit.

CINEMA ROOM
The default Day Centre arrangement is a hybrid space for recreational use. Tables are set up for the elderly to enjoy a cup of tea, while more active spaces are available to the caretakers.
To allow for all-house dinning the Day Centre can be rearranged to provide a lot of dinning tables for occasional buffet evenings. This set up would vastly allow the community to socialize over food.
For special evenings the Day Centre can be easily arranged into a cinema room. The large uninterrupted space allows for exiting cinematic experience which can bring the residents closer together.

The analysis of the façades and glazing around the site emphasized the contrast of architecture and the various use of brick in the area. Modern elements create an open dialogue with the traditional details and form the soul of Northern Quarter.
The tall window spanning across several floors used to be the main feature of the depertament store which stood on the site before 2013.

RECYCLABLE STRUCTURE
LOW-CARBON LOCATION
The long, yet relatively thin plan of the building allows for easy cross ventilation and air flow. This reduces the need for electric air conditioning and reduces the use of electricity. The shaded courtyard provides a cool air intake for ventilation.
I n t ro d u c i n g t h e m u ch n e e d e d greenery to the area helps combat the air pollution in the city. The shading from the trees prevents the building f rom overheating in the summer, while allowing solar gain in winter.
The steel structure is a strong and longlasting if maintained properly. The frame can span large distances and together with composite floor slabs easily support the interior walls. This allows for simple re-purposing of the building.
New [Old]ham is located right in the city centre, next to a bus stop and a bike lane creating a great opportunity for the residents to reduce carbon footprint. The bike storage encourages residents to use the green transport option.
