Design Development - Physical Model - Elevation
As a response to the floor plans, this model serves to introduce the concept of steel frame construction coexisting with the red brick factories. Balsa wood represents the numerous pods developed throughout this project, such as the stairwell/lift or the columbarium, auditorium and gardens. This model was successful in the fact that it illustrates the design intention of the frame and overarching bridge. As well as this, it introduces scenarios that would not have otherwise been considered, such as the arrangement of pods and subsequently, the capacity of them on site. This model made it apparent that the front park was too busy, and consequently changes have been made. Although the pods are in scale with the site model, this model has over exaggerated the heights of the components involved, this is a negative which can be improved upon in the future.
