Hand drawn site map of concrete lawn and MSD building. This was further illustrated as an action plan of the concrete dawn, depicting where
the most popular parts of the lawn are throughout different times of the day.

100 Word Narrative
The following is my 100 Word Creative essay that focuses on the program ‘occupy’. My aim was to describe
a comfortable study environment where I would feel most compelled to situate myself and take part in
what the space has to offer.
‘As I made my way across the first floor, I saw the most welcoming looking area that looked
effective enough to lay out my textbooks and get stuck into my assignment. Just by looking at
the plumped up cushions on the backs of a long bench, coupled with a spacious desk that could
fit a whole group of people, I felt compelled to interact with this space in that I knew I would be
able to efficiently get my work done due to the resources provided there, the comfort the
seating offered me and my ability to socialise and study simultaneously which would ensure
that I would enjoy getting my work done’.

Spatiotemporal Narrative
My main materials that I used here I gathered from internet sites, magazines and newspapers. I started by cutting out each image that I would
find that looked comfortable to me, and then managed to incorporate it in some way in my final collage. I then pasted each image onto the
image of a plain, clean and bright room to create a space worth occupying.

Superposition Collage
The above plan was achieved by combining and tracing my action plan, assemblage plan view and my spatiotemporal narrative. I then
simplified the superposition collage to create a clearer plan that can be used as the basis for my final plan and designs.

Experience Collage
This collage gives an overall sense of how I intend for my final design to be occupied by its audience.

Final Project
This is a perspective photo that I took, illustrating what the
view would be like from the top of the rooftop garden that
I have incorporated next to Union House.
This perspective photo depicts the view from the metal
seating that I have designed, surrounding Union Lawn.
This perspective photo demonstrates the view from the
top of my ‘stepping’ design. My aim was to convey how
one can overlook the entire concrete lawn from this height
and suggest that my design offers a new perspective onto
the University.
This is a similar perspective photo to my first one, taken
from the rooftop garden next to Union House; however
this displays the same view from a different angle,
demonstrating the freedom to move around on this
rooftop garden.
