This is really good, really like the generated form and also housing the two age groups together. The elderly are housed high up in the structure, is there ramps that join it for their access or is their circulation inside, perhaps relating programme to the ramps, so that the elderly can walk/drive up to their accommodation, and other ramps used for the teenagers, and others for the prams?
have you thought yet about materiality Bang? Would the ramps be colour coded for the different groups, maybe the ramps mirror the materiality of the program/// ?
Yeah that was what i was aiming for...my whole scheme is driven by variations of different kinds of movement. There is a ramp circulation that continues internally for the different programmes (which is what the colours represent in my model) to encourage slower movement and increasing the possibilities of integration of the different ages at the collision point of the primary site.
Although I don't think I demonstrated this very clearly?
Also the tutors said I need to develop my own style of presentation, Rob really didn't like my sketch up-y diagrams. Ash then encouraged me to push where my strengths are in my arty diagrams, models and montages? Which is what I am more comfortable doing I am just concerned I might loose that professional appearance in my work? what do you think? Do you have any tips on diagramming my scheme?
It was also suggested to loose this vehicular scheme with the bikes etc, and take that as a more conceptional approach?
Haven't thought too much about materiality. I think it is important to incorporate a high degree of glazed partitions internally so the social categories aren't physically separated? Any suggestions? And I would like the peoples stories digitally displayed on the ramps continuing my concept across from my intervention.

(sorry about the essay!)
I have posted my intervention regarding digitally displaying information on the facades?
