Tracing Bauhaus Pedagogy
Project based around urban growing and agriculture, with a proposal for a cpul masterplan in Cheetham Hill.
Exploration of the teaching approach at the Bauhaus in Weimar, looking at the methods of Itten, Kandinskly. “Creative play and creativity training also comprised a part of Bauhaus pedagogical ‘inventions’, which integrated the educational reform experiences of Pestalozzi, Fröbel and Montessori into higher education for the first time.”
A strong collaborative and socially orientated approach underpinned the project, backed up by theoretical positioning that was grounded in participation methods and hands-on research.
The Creativity of children was also a key element of the philosophy of the Bauhaus teaching method.
PROJECT FOR A PLAYGROUND
PLACES
Based at Chapel Road Traveller site in Marton, Blackpool, the project is a collaboration between myself and Madeleine Mooney, with Stefan White and Helen Aston, with a larger team of collaborators.
Involvement in the DENcity project and Living Here, Living There, are part of a framing to the design thesis and are enabling and enriching the basis of the proposal. The direct connection between Places and Webster Primary School is paramount to the success of the engagement and participation that the project needs
Previous experience of participatory methods of design and engagement activities were utilised during the creative and design process. A playable space has been designed specifically for the Romani Traveller community, with funding from Blackpool Council, allowing children to discover, learn and create their own play activities.
STUDIO 5.3
Proposal for a neighbourhood campus and scale free school in Moss Side and Hulme, rooted in a ‘playful’ strategy that re-imagines local services and assets in an integrated and connected way. The central facility will house spaces for learning and education, but alongside a broader programme relating to health and well-being, active lifestyles and socialising, and of course play! This is part of a wider ‘playful’ site area strategy that seeks to assemble a ‘neighbourhood campus’ of services and spaces, interlinked by various playscapes, new spaces and connections. Within the proposal there is a ‘scale free school’ that re-imagines Holy Name Primary school, which the council is currently planning to move to the proposed central site, as a distributed school amongst the various local assets and spaces. This alternative proposal is seen as an integrated school that utilises underused and redundant space in the local area, rather than building a new, expensive and singular facility.
STUDIO 5.2
STUDIO 5.1
connected community
project for websters
Alongside continuous research into the site area around Webster Primary and focusing on a central site , the development of the design thesis project explores an approach that will create a wider community facility, This will house spaces for learning/education, but alongside a broader programme relating to health and well-being, active lifestyles and socialising. This is part of a wider ‘playful’ site area strategy that seeks to assemble a ‘community campus’ of services and spaces, interlinked by various playscapes, new spaces and connections
Utilising experience from previous studio work, research from the dissertation and of course the playground project, the design thesis has begun to develop a concept, theory and design strategy. The project looks at the issues related to lack of creativity and play in the lives of not only children but also adults. Webster Primary school and it’s location is the research group and site for the project and will be worked with and explored during the design process throughout the year.

the living here, living there workshops with Webster Primary. Places and the MSA.
The alleyway between Beresfrod street and Roseberry street, in Moss Side was re-imagined as a communal space with activities spilling out from the homes as part of the project development. In many ways the ‘street’ is seen as the clients for the project, taking into consideration jobs, hobbies, families, personal situations, interests, health and wellbeing.
Engaging with the children through this process has been useful in firstly understanding the way they think and work, but also in relation to interpreting and designing conceptually and spatially as a response to creating environments that foster and enable their development.

proposition for a SCALE FREE school
Within the design thesis proposal there is a ‘scale free school’ that re-imagines Holy Name Primary school, which the council is currently planning to move to the proposed central site, as a distributed school amongst the various local assets and spaces. This alternative proposal is seen as an integrated school that utilises underused and redundant space in the local area, rather than building a new, expensive and singular facility.

The National Institute defines play in 7 ways, one of many definitions of play, and these are shown above. Play is seen here beyond the confines of childhood and something which should exist all the way through our lives. This position of play being an integral part of life is seen as the basis for the strategic masterplan and is interwoven into the ‘playful’ development of space and strengthening what exists in the area. The map proposes how and where the 7 types might exist.

mapping relationships at the city scale
place The viabilty of the proposed design thesis project is based in a very real context, taking account of the cuyrrent economic and social environment in Manchester and specifically the site area in Moss Side. One of the key strategies for the project is for the cafe to be a money generator for the facility, of which the profits will be put back into the proposed and into the other services identified in the area. The proposition as an alternative to the current Holy Name School to be rebuilt on the site, sees itself as adding a greater deal of social capital to the area as well as giving it a greater positive identity , which the area currently. Placemaking is an essential strategy as part of the overall project.

Play has been studied by those such as Jean Piaget who looked at cognitive development in children1, and more recently by Stuart Brown from the National Institute of Play and his theory of play beyond the confines of childhood. The National Institute defines play in 7 ways, one of many definitions of play, and these are shown above.2 These play types have then be identified within the model of the main piece of equipment, showing the diversity and complexity of the design.

materials and methodology
The choice of materials for the project was extremely important and something we considered from the outset of the concept design. We quickly identified the restraints of the budget and tried to maximise the design potential and experience we had as a team. This lead us to a construction method that utlises a ‘kit of parts’ idea, similar to the WikiHouse method, that allows greater potential for the scheme than would have done with standard playground construction materials. Working with a tight budget has meant we have had to keep a careful eye on costs and we have been fully involved in calculating material and construction costs along the way.

RISKY, regulations and standards FEEL PLAY SAFE
Due to the bespoke nature of the proposed playground it has been important to review and take into consideration the British Standards relating to children’s playground equipment, especially those relating to entrapment of body parts and critical fall heights. Below lists the regulations we have been required to comply with. BS EN 1176 Playground Equipment and Surfacing Part 1: General safety requirements and test methods Part 2: Additional specific safety requirements and test methods for swings Part 3: Additional specific safety requirements and test methods for slides Part 7: Guidance for installation, inspection, maintenance and operation Part 11: Additional specific safety requirements and test methods for spatial networks BS EN 1177 Impact Attenuating Playground Surfacing: Determination of Critical Fall Height
Equipment Testing
However, risk taking is essential to children’s development as it builds confidence in their capabilities. In an increasingly risk-averse society, potential risks are often designed out. Designers need to find a balance between keeping children safe from harm and offering children risks challenges. Playground designers MONSTRUM create designs that allow children “to feel the excitement of being in danger and losing control for a moment”, creating the perception of risk but in a controlled way to meet safety standards, through the use of tilted equipment, climbing surfaces and fantasy-inspired forms.1
Keith Dalton, from the Play Inspection Company visited site on Wednesday 13th May 2015 to inspect the playground. Keith was testing a number of requirements such as those for finger and head entrapments (shown above), Critical Fall Heights with required safety surfacing, material quality, structural integrity, and also spaces that could be designed to restrict exit. Following the inspection some snagging alterations needed to take place but with those the main piece of equipment was approved for use by the community. As part of the inspection Keith also trained Albreda Taylor, a resident on site, in the maintenance and safety requirements of the playground. Additionally the council will be provided with a Construction and Maintenance Manual for the playground, produced by Myself and Madeleine Mooney, shown on the following pages.

reflection
personal thoughts on the project
Throughout the final year of our formal architectural education, the design project has been a constant reminder that we design for people and the realisation of a building proposal can only be measured as successful if it creates a better place for the user. In this instance, the user was a group of Gypsy and Traveller children, whose unfettered enthusiasm from the beginning of the project has proved to be an exceptionally strong influence on striving to produce an architecture that can make a difference to their young lives. We were lucky to be given a brief that permitted us to pursue the concept of a playable space, a concept that involves creating a design that allows children to discover and create their own activities - a “place of their own”. This concept provided the framework for the project and allowed us to perceive the situation in a way that crystallised our design reasoning. The initial challenge was to persuade the children, parents, Blackpool Coastal Housing and the project funders to recognise the weaknesses of traditional playground designs, (known derogatively as KFC (kit, fence and carpet) playgrounds) and then agree to create a bespoke, motivational space for play.
Perhaps one of the most enjoyable aspects of the project has been the first-hand experience of helping to build the playground, seeing the carefully designed components piece together on site and the reaction of the children coming home from school to see the playground taking shape over the week-long on-site build. Throughout the project, our tutors have acted as mentors and enabled us to take on responsibility for realising the design as well as supporting and guiding us through the process of liaising with structural engineers, playground inspectors and funders. Without their continued support and negotiations to allow us to work outside the more formal university system, we would never have had this experience of a real life project. We are fortunate and grateful to have been given this opportunity.
Madeleine Mooney and Matthew Shanley
The initial and subsequent site visits and consultations gave us first-hand experience of life for children on a Traveller’s site and the confidence needed to coalesce our ideas into a final proposal. Consulting with both parents and children provided valuable insights into their expectations and we were able to take on board their ideas. However, we were also aware that during these consultations we needed to manage their expectations and ensure we did not raise unrealistic hopes. In the early stages of the project, this was difficult as we were uncertain about the final budget figure and parents, who had been lobbying for a playground for over five years, were impatient for progress. In many ways, designing a playable space is designing in a playful way, allowing imagination to flow without concern and not allowing design problems to stall the process. Blackpool, as a place of fun and pleasure, is full of uninhibited designs and we felt we had leave to design an original piece, inspired by precedents and the local context. We produced a physical model of our final design proposal and presented this to the children and parents as well as other stakeholders. Whilst drawings and sketches stimulated discussions, it was the physical model that captured the potential reality of the playground and proved to be the most meaningful mode of exploration for the children, who used scale figures to show how they would play in the space. Budget constraints resulted in a number of compromises in the design, for example, part way through the initial design phase we discovered the community at Chapel Road were not eligible for a Community project Grant of £10,000 (nearly half of our initial budget of £23,000). However, following a successful presentation of the scheme to members of Blackpool Council, Blackpool Coastal Housing association and Leftcoast, we secured additional money that enabled our initial design to be realised. With adherence to the original concept of playable space, compromises did not detract from the final design. The financial constraints also ensured we considered material choice and mode of construction. The choice of timber ensured joints were kept relatively simple and were something we (with limited carpentry skills!) could understand and we could participate in the construction ourselves. Utilising a CNC router enabled us to design digitally and ensured minimal waste as we were able to calculate quantity requirements from our digital model.
