Design Studio 4 - Submission 1

Conceptual Model ( Virtual Sketchup model)

The conceptual model of the overall design of the community centre is to represent a "broken up lock" in abstract form. This is evident when viewing it from plan facing north(below). The whole design idea was derived by the thought that the community centre would stand against the way its surroundings has been built. It will consist of broken up architecture, rather than blocks placed next to each other, with many transitional spaces allowing a comfortable blend of both landscape and architecture.

There will be a new grandstand because the current stand isn't placed close enough to the field.

This screenshot was taken from in between the two large buildings behind the site. In the afternoon light permeates this space allowing the entrance of the community centre to capture some of the light. The reason why I chose this screenshot is because it can be used to position my entrance.
