Plans and siting

Some elements of the ground floor I didn't draw in such as the WC as these could be replicated in Photoshop. There was also an extension from the silks area which got deleted in edits, but are shown here anyway for process.

Pencilled plans on trace:

 Final Photoshop edits with materiality added:

As mentioned earlier, I kept materiality true to site context, using concrete, wooden flooring and corrugated sheet roofing. I also used an exposed decorational steel skeleton to replicate the internal structure of the sheds. I'm pretty happy with how the collaged images turned out - pretty similar in style to the Diller and Scofidio exemplar:

Final plans and conceptual parti seem to fit well together. The spaces weren't that difficult to connect in order to achieve this.

Location on the site was based primarily on the fact it would be most visible and inviting to pedestrians using the reinvigorated walkway. Traffic is indicated in the second diagram, with nodes of activity in the building identified. Additionally, the layout allows for a smooth transition in, out and around the school.
