Statement of Intent
PROPOSITIONS FOR THE SITE
BRINGING PEOPLE TO THE SITE / The building would create a public space that accumulates peaople from all directions. Moreover, accomodating the FUSE gallery, during summer months the gap between buildings could create an outside gallery.
LEVELING THE BUILDINGS / Currently, the FUSE art gallery next to Rawson’s Hotel is lower than the hotel, therefore creating a gap between the buildings, thus to eliminate it, the future design must be 4 floors high.
‘In urban groupings, ‘...a field of objects would be seen as a unit when they are defined by some dissimilar means of organization, or when, vis some idiosyncrast of form, polarize themselves into a cogent grouping’.’
