Agenda “By designing the new judgment tower that acknowledges the purpose of the current traditional judgment box,I want the site to be a place for users to realise that new and old values and things can coexist together. “

Users Tourists

With the perfect view of the city, I hope that this will be one of the tourists spots. Tourists can take a look at the 1930s Melbourne architecture of the current judgment box and at the same time admire the new modern tower that is built. They will also realise the importance of Yarra River for various activities which forms part of the culture of Melbourne. Type of tourists In a group These are tourists who come in a group usually organised by tour companies and guided by tour guides. They usually come in large groups that range from 10 to 30 persons. Tour groups mostly consist of adults to older men and women. They follow the tour guide and sometimes listen to him when he is explaining about the place they visit. However, in a large group, they might make noise and might disturb other existing users. Solo traveller These are people who are travelling alone. They usually range from healthy young people to adult men and women. Older people do not usually travel alone. They do not make much noise and would prefer a quieter and more peaceful surroundings. They will enjoy the peace and the ambience of the surroundings of the tower. In a small group These tourists usually come in small groups ranging below 10 person. They are usually quite different from the large group tourists as they do not depend on tour guides. They do not make as much noise as the larger groups but might still produce some noise that distracts other users. As the tower might not be big, the space might be cramped and filled by visitors especially during the peak seasons.

Judges

The current function of the tower is still available, therefore, judges will use the tower too. Their purpose is just to judge the rowing competition and they would not be interested in admiring and enjoying the view. However, it is important that the tower is left empty on competition days which means that it would not be accessible during those days. This might be inconvenient for other users especially the tourists as the tourists do not come here again.
