Site Elevation Map for Creating the Site Cross Sections
Placement of the Sections
The Site Cross Sections
To analyse the site further, we had to look at it from a more expansive perspective. By creating cross sections of the site, we are able to see more clearly how the natural elements of the site interact with the built environment. It gives us the opportunity to exploit this interaction, both physically and metaphysically. How can a city play with someone's mind.
The idea of volatility is not only felt
in the physical body, but it can be transferred from mind to body. The node was originally designed to
celebrate the influence of the city background and the colossal
Storey Bridge structure from the secluded and somewhat forgotten
Howard Smith Wharf site. The intent of this new design will be
to distort the view of the circumferent city, thus altering the way
we perceive the built environment which influences the metaphysical
feel of the site as a unique place. This idea has implied psychological
influence created by the social and cultural power these surrounding
built elements portray.
The mind as a volatile entity is
transposed into a spectrum of physical form and language through
expressions, movements, and actions which are a reflection of our
interpretation of the contextual social and cultural strata.
