Week 11 progress before presentation

 Start from a concept model that is two "L" shaped model, having two combined as a one (?) building. Also the ideas of combining old and new, the ideas of having an old, normal suburban house on Victoria street but combined with a new design. 

For house 1 there's a roof garden and for house 2 there is a garden behind the old house also the free garden space under street level.

 Having the entrance on the side of the old house and enters the small room of display arts, and the glass like area framed as the large display room. 

In this house one is the block on top and is 10 metres tall which merges with the building next to it.

Week 10 progress

The concept model experimenting the folded structure and shape, planning the design that could happening next to the walls and beneath the ceiling

 make the model to present the walls and levels, consider the functions of the double house and the gallery area.

 Want to have the bedroom close to back street to get the light and air but its a bit awkward to place it there, coz people look out from there to see the city view, but bedroom needs privacy so need to consider planning more.

And also trying different openings that needed for the design.

Week 9 Progress

Still playing with the light and air, and trying to have a floating level for the gallery space, with glazing and framing of the walls.
For the gallery level, having some stepped design through, and thinking the top two level could have the same design.

Week 8 group site model + progress

group site model we make the parts next to the site block

For this weeks progress I was focusing that for each room to have light and air in, to have a cut in the middle of the block.

 With experiments on the angled pathways, floors and ceilings.
