The north facade can be adjusted to shade the sun. 








EXP 3 THE BRIDGE THEORY AND 18 SKETCH PERSPECTIVES

THEORY

KEY WORDS

Form     Structure    Function

Form in building architecture is the final output.
Structure is the set of physical and digital components, their interfaces, and the design rationales that control their evolution. 
Function in building is roughly equivalent to requirements.
The three basic elements need to be considered when design a house. And they have strong connections, so one can not be separated from the others.  A good design should combine them well in order to perform well.

EXP_2 36 CUSTOM TEXTURES



Selected Material
Light
Linear elements is often used by Walter Gropius for efficiency and simplicity. This light materiel is used in the underground part to provide more light. 

Medium
Simple geometry often rectangular is common in modernist architects' works. With the calculation and arrangement they can become interesting decoration.


Dark
The station is designed with triangular cover, which can be reinforced by this material. 


EXP_2 18 SKETCH AXONOMETRICS

Axonometrics





Parallel projections



 one rectilinear form interacting with one curvilinear form.





EXP_2 THE ARCHITECTURAL CONCEPTS

Herzog and De Meuron and Walter Gropius



  • Herzog and De Meuron have the "Organic" philosophy, which means building are designed to fit its nature surroundings.
  • Walter Gropius uses the technology as a basis, transform building into a science of precise mathmatical calculation.
   

Themes : technology


UNSW is a modern, global University. The station reflects this context with the special structure inspired  by the "Organic" philosophy. Considering the large amount of passengers and cars and the width of the street, the design makes cars pass under the station. 

This is a conceptual design using technology such as light but strong materiel and precise calculation to support its structure. This design is complicated and can only be built with the help of technology. And it will be a good practice and test of new technology.
