Non-Stop Hotel: 4th Year Portfolio by Rachel Milne

NON-STOP HOTEL

Rachel Milne Unit 3 Appearances and Essences ESALA

Abstract My design aims to challenge the norm of current hotels where a space can only be rented for the minimum of a night. This hotel and depository for any item that will fit can be rented from 5 minutes to the maximum of 24 hours. The Non-Stop Hotel adapts for the different uses of the public realm according to the time of day, it is an architectural entity with a timetable. Therefore my portfolio also follows a few sub-timetables to help position a few drawings and studies at a point in time, as this building moves and it is not always the same shape.

Theatrical Study

Reality Vs Inhabited Space Our first task from the brief was to create observations of a theatrical route through Edinburgh. Using Walter Benjamin’s we wrote observations on public theatre. My observation picked up layers in the city, a street level could be quiet in a secluded area where people come to rest whereas other areas could have busier and faster paces. The second observation was of a city with hidden spaces of phone signal and blank spots. As the digital world increases these areas become more important and attract people to them.

Extract from Observation 2: ‘Reality Vs Digital World’ ‘Despite the odd glance to check if their bus has pulled up at the stop, they are totally absorbed by their digital device in their hand. All six of them in the scene are standing motionless with their faces illuminated by the glare of the screen.These people are here in body but their conscious minds are in a digital world’

Reality Vs Subterranean

Extract from Observation 1: ‘Reality Vs Subterranean’ ‘One would not guess by these few clues that below this roof are three levels of retail which eventually lead to an even lower point at Waverly Station. If one was to walk from Princes Street to the train station, even by observing the glass canopied entrance with granite steps leading visitors downwards, the mall still manages to keep its secret multiple levels hidden’

Social Paths in the City I designed my playbill to carry on the theme of layers in the city, but I decided to split these layers into layers of different groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s paths, such as tourists, shoppers and commuters. This study began my interest in how different people use the city.

Adding to the idea of different groups using the city in different ways, I created a time table for these separate groups and which group uses the city more at contrasting times of the day.

Focussing closer on the site I looked at rest times as a contrast to the paths of movement and transience. I studied the range from resting for a few seconds to a full 24 hrs. The areas that had less rest times were places where the public either passes through or are waiting for a brief period. I noted that the areas of the route through Edinburgh that had 24 hr rest times were hotels, but unlike other areas, the minimum rest time was a nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stay.

Leading on from my mapping exercise, I decided to develop the idea of hotels only allowing their rooms to be rented for 12 hrs or longer. After observing the many uses of the site by different people, and the different resting times in area, I decided to make my programme encompass all these aspects. Therefore I made my programme a depository hotel that adapted in use and size to meet the needs of the user. The design was made up of a series of blocks that could join together to make bigger spaces.

The link to the Caledonian Hotel was also very important as this emphasised the contrast between the timetable of my design and the timetable of a traditional hotel which can only be rented for a minimum of night.

In our group we mapped the different timetable of our designs against each other. We also created spacial links between each one.

W GO AS

I chose my site next to the Caledonian Hotel on Lothian Road for a few reasons. This area of the site is node of activity and in my previous plans I discovered that many of the social paths interacted at met at this point. This area also acts as an entrance to the site, arguable the main one. Another reason for this site choice was to link my programme and design with Adam Kelly’s And Ayla Riome’s projects. We linked our schemes by all incorporating a Paternoster lift in our designs. Adam’s lift was used to express to speed of everchanging fashion, and Ayla’s represented the fast movement of commuters. My design inhabited the Paternoster and used it as the main feature of movement.

A Theatrical Orrery of Frequency + Flux We created a series of models to investigate how we could link our buildings. Since my design relied on Aylaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s acting as a station and bringing users to my building, I decided to use the structure of her design and wrap mine around it. My structure took advantage of one of her trusses.

A Theatrical Orrery of Frequency + Flux Final Model

Non-Stop Hotel My design used 2 types of Paternoster. A continuous lift used to transport users to different levels which only stops once a week for an hour for maintenance and once again every year for a day for major maintenance. The 2nd type is a lift which stops through out the day as the capsules in the design link to create new spaces.

The second capsule is a locker measuring 300mm by 300mm which also connects with a neighbouring capsule to create a larger locker. The final capsule is the seat capsule which is 2000mm by 1600mm base and 2600mm high. These are kitted out with fold away seats, tables, T.V.’s and a small sink. These also can join and create a capsule small enough to sleep in when the 2 seats are joined together to create a mattress.

First is the smallest capsule which is 200mm by 200mm and is the small deposit box. This capsule then connects with another when both adjacent paternosters are stationary and creates a larger deposit box.

The Non-Stop Hotel uses the Paternoster theme to save space. This design is about efficiency, transience and time. It aims to utilise the same space to allow different uses, firstly by providing either storage or rooms which move to allow a smaller footprint on the site, and secondly by using the same capsules to join together to PRODUCED BY AN AUTODESK EDUCATIONAL PRODUCT create larger spaces that can be used for longer periods of time.

Tectonic Statement My design is one big machine so part of Tectonic investigation was understanding how a machine like this could work. I designed a structure that allowed itself to be walking through and around while also attaching to a truss. Another extraction was a closer look at how these parts work alone and together, which I did by designing details at 1:20 and 1:30 scales. My final tectonic investigation was how the Capsules worked. How they were constructed and how they could adapt for use and join together.

The structure is compiled of many layers of the machine, from the electric motors which rotate the wheel, to the interconnecting capsules. The name of ‘Non-Stop’ Hotel also refers to it’s structure, as due to the layers, the design can be extended over longer distances than on the truss in this scheme. Therefore the structure is ‘Non-Stop.’ PRODUCED BY AN AUTODESK EDUCATIONAL PRODUCT

PRODUCED BY AN AUTODESK EDUCATIONAL PRODUCT

I chose a light weight material for the exterior of the capsules to allow them to be lifted easier, therefore I chose carbon fibre. A steel frame holds the capsules form and is a good safety precaution as this would protect a person inside in case the capsule fell. To create a warm and homely feel inside wood has been used on the interior walls.

The capsules connect via Localised Electromagnets on opsite sides to each other, which switch on when the capsules are stationary. Electromagnets are created by copper wire being wrapped around an iron rod and a current being sent through the wires, allowing the magnet to be switched off and on.
