Within the Bridging the Gap scheme inside the
Royal Garrison Church, the site will be divided
into several zones that cater for the needs
of the users. From the insight of research for
what’s required within a cafe, a large kitchen,
serving area and WC’s are the primary needs
within the space. Starting with cuboid elements
is a simple way of dividing a large space, as
it allows linear growth within how each zone
interacts with each other overtime.
Taking into consideration that most visitors
will visit to use all aspects of the space, the
circulation within the project will be one of the
importance to apply into. The circulation within
the space is designed to force interaction with
other visitors, creating social scenarios all over
the building. Having two entrances and four
exits, the building will have large amounts of
foot traffic coming from various parts of the
building.
Once the zones are fitted to the spaces that
they have been placed in, I was able to fragment
each shape to create a unique concept and
design. Removing the linear shapes edges allows
more room for abstract circulation, creating a
unique design layout. The fragments within
the building do not come into contact with
the original structure, sticking to conservation
guidelines. By making the structure temporary
yet solid, the space can be reconstructed within
over time if desired.
