MESSAGE 3: ADAPT
EXISTING STRUCTURE ON SITE
EXISTING STRUCTURE BUILDING NALYSIS
RESEARCH AND DESIGN DEVELOPMENT Adapting an industrail shed into a woodland implmenting low-tech construction tactics to repurpose the building. Blending it with nature and introducing a woodland ecosystem that attracts birds and mammals within the area.
Analysis of the direlict industrial building in terms of materiality and how we utilzed and reused the materials for different purposes.
EARLY CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT BITMAC FLOOR STEEL CLADDING AND STRUCTURE
1. Exitsing composite structure of steel and brick
2. Removal of exterior walls to create new openings
The removal of the roof cladding to give room for the trees to breath and grow. The roof is metal corrugated sheets which is later used for the construction of alottments and fox dens
Removing the majority of the bitmac flooring to introduce the low shrubs and grasses, the bitmac is later used to construct the overground fox dens.
BRICK ENVELOPE Deconstructing the brick walls from the building to give a transistional movement from space to space and improve circulation. The demolished brick is used to create the human path in the building.
3. Integration of landcape into the built environment
