“Journey Through Time”

typology | Museum location | York, UK client | York City Council module | Event, Space, Form

Objectives | In this project we must explore the notion of an ‘event’ and the relationship between activities created by an event and the ‘space’ encompassing it. To explore the making of space and an architectural ‘form’ which responds to its notion, through developing the conceptual approach, celebrating the dynamic expressions of the Event, Space and Form.

Inspiration | The inspiration behind this project was to break down a specific urban element, of which was lampposts. By de-constructing and re-constructing this element, the design starts to mould and develop on its own. From deconstructing lampposts and categorizing them into time periods and styles, the event begins to form by self-building a time-line through the different time periods of York history. This time-line is what created the event, by pinpointing specific events throughout York’s history, the space inside directly corresponds to the event. My intention was to create spaces that respond to the emotions felt when standing in that space, and reading about the events that happened during that period in time [atmosphere].

Basement Level | 1:200

Section AA | 1:200

The ‘sunken’ basement sections were set below ground level to no obstruct the view of Cliffords tower which sits directly adjacent to the site boundary. This allows the ‘central courtyard’ space [21st Century - Present day] to have a an attachment to one of Yorks more famous landmarks. And this allows visitors to reflect on the journey they have been on.
