This project is to design a City “Power House” in Manchester. This building will be home of the new Mayor, providing private spaces for formal meetings of the Greater Manchester Combined Authority and offering open spaces for broad participation in politics. The space of political congregation is not only an expression of a political culture, it also uses architecture to shape this culture and forms an architecture language for people to understand. Citizens are essential factors of political decision-making.
In detail, Co-city hall is built up for creating a place where citizens can communicate with each other and comment on city events and future development plans by writing bee bulbs. Public comments can be effectively conveyed to political decision-makers in this way. By functional zones like exhibition area, debating camber and chatting place, citizens can read about the history of Great Manchester, and exchange their political ideas.

GM Mayor City Hall in Manchester
The idea is 'public landscape', as political place should not be a closed and inaccessible space for the public. As a final-year student, I read the site context and tried to make efforts to transfer it into building readability.
-POWERHOUSE-------Active northThe project is design a new co-city hall in GREAT MANCHESTER--for GM mayor and 10 Local authurities.
-Concept-
The idea of ‘Political landscape’ is based on the consensus that political place should not be a closed and inaccessible space. Politics activities need to be viewed and discussed in the landscape when people are moving through it. The idea of city hall shows democracy and transparency. At the same time, the serious atmosphere is still kept.
1.Keep the historical pedestrian street by adding a new platform to connect platform and street level.
2.Transparentize the debating chamber. Citizens have the right to supervise or protest the decisions generated.
3.Create sense of ceremony. As a serious political place, the building separates office space and open space for citizens with a clear vertical gap. Corten steel is used in the façade which balances the public area and private working area. Streamline façade attracts and welcomes people to walk through the building.
City hall is a typical political landscape that attracts not only the citizens, but also visitors from all over the world. At the same time, it acts as a center of influence for the boroughs nearby. However, this kind of political landscapes are often blocking the tourists away with its high concrete walls and boring facades. The idea is to open the political landscape without affecting its needed functions.
All ideas serve for keeping the historical street--Wyre Street under the bridge. The ground floor embraces all citizens with open spaces, rather than establishing blocks by concrete walls. The functional zones like exhibition zone and assembly zone alongside the street sparkle the active communication and abundant spiritual life of citizens.

The Liverpool Blue Coats School is a prestigious school that dates back to 1708. It locates on Church Road in Wavertree, a suburban area of the city. It is proposed that the school will sell off a part of Wavertree Green for the erection of at least 16no residential units and establish some sports facilities.
