Models

1:20 Sectional Model of Pier and Walkway underneath

I made this model with the intention to show both how people will interact with these 2 spaces but also show the concrete construction which makes up the parts of the building.

I have also drawn in the lights which are there to represent the old piles that held up the Coogee Pier. These lights will project straight up looking like ghostly piles and will contribute to the overall aesthetic of the walkway under the pier.

This is a close aerial view showing how well the buildings blend in with the landscape and the surrounding context.

This birds eye view shows the fluidity of the landscape and subtlety of the buildings with their flat roofs. 



In this photo I took out a section of my model so that the interior of the gym can be seen as well as the quality of light that permeates throughout the building from the skylights and the windows on the North and South side of the building. 



This is the section that I took out, it shows the ribbed ceiling and the height change that takes place on the left of the dividing wall in the middle.






In this photo you can see the extension that I made to the back of the grandstand, the walkway with the feature wall, the grandstand and pier as well as the other buildings on the right.

This is a clear view of the entrance showing how it aligns with the stairs of the pier. The contours of the landscape are also visible showing how they engulf the gym building.
