3DD week 2 day 2



I did research into galleries that I have been to before like the Photographer’s gallery and Parasol unit. I realized from my research that there were aspects in a gallery that I have not considered in my original design. Those things include lift, toilet, staff room and a coffee shop. From this I learnt to understand the needs of the people who will be using the construction. I also learn to consider where those elements should be placed in the building, such as having the staff room next to the reception and the toilets in the coffee shop to make things more convenient.

 

I decided to redo a sketch of my design plus the things I did not include in the first sketch. I realize that there was not enough space for the toilets and a coffee shop in my building, so I decided to create an extension building. The extension building will housed the coffee shop and toilets. The building would also be shaped in a curve but slightly smaller structure to the main building. The two building would be joined together, where the two curves would meet like the Chanel logo, except the buildings do not intertwine. The inside of the structure on the ground floor where the two curves meet, a section of that wall would be taken out to create a pathway that connects the main building to the coffee shop.



This is my floor plan.
