THE FACTORY06OPEN HOUSE BICYCLE PRODUCTION

Design Studio Painting Warehouse

Welding, Bending, Cutting of Frame Assembly

The Factory is at the centre of the urban park. The surrounding follies are arranged in relationship to the centrepiece. The public can observe the mak-ing process via an upper gantry which passes over the sunken factory floor. The roof of the factory is a canopy in tension covering the machinery below.

The Bicycle Factory

The design studio is the start of the production line process. Glazed facades allow for observation from the park to the activity within. Light wells in the roof pass soft sunlight down into the studio illuminating the designers sketching.

THE FOLLIES07SUPPORTING THE EXPERIENCE

Entrance Folly

Four steel skeletal drums each encircle staircas-es which all ascend toward a viewing device two storeys high. The folly’s four central posts distrib-ute the order for the field of signal posts which cover the site, orientating the follies around them. Each viewing device observes a different direction.

Elevation

Signal PostsThe signal posts act as navigational devices around the urban park. The posts stand eight metres high at the lowest point of the park and gradually descend in height as the user orientates themselves towards the entrance folly. Not only do they orientate the user around the site, but they also serve as the framework in which the follies situated. The posts derive from the stitch-ing category and illuminate at night, dispersing light through its horizontal slits in the metal that encases it.

Incremental Workshop

The workshop is a metal cage tower with its roof ad-dressing the factory. The metal structure breaks up the natural light entering the workshop teach-ing spaces. The teaching difficulty increases up the building with the most advanced being on level 5.

Elevation Section

Observatory Tower

The tower is a place to contemplate and rest. A chair in the viewing chamber is orientated to a view northwards over the River Tyne, ghosting the height of the late Gateshead icon. The lightweight steel and glass cham-ber is reached via a stair core in-between the vertical concrete elements terminating in a moment of pause.

The sauna is a place to rest and reflect. Heat en-ergy from the factory is transferred underground and utilized by the sauna. Two chimney elements pro-vide an outlet for the steam produced in the sauna.

Elevations

Tea PavilionThe pavilion is a place to rest and meet. It is a sea-sonal structure which is only open during the sum-mer months. The timber structure is covered by a red plastic membrane creating a space to rest within. A black material on the roof of the structure harnesses the sun’s energy and heats water for warm drinks.

A series of timber clad display cabinets address the High Street running along the eastern edge of the site signalling the end of the factory as-sembly process. The completed bicycles are cel-ebrated as artefacts, stopped in motion, detached from the urban park by a thick pane of glass.

The cabins are place to rest and retreat. They are elevat-ed off the floor of the park to reduce impact sound from the factory and also add privacy for the inhabitants.

PERSONAL WORK 201406BRIXTON HILL LONDONFEASIBILITY STUDY FOR TWO STOREYVICTORIAN TERRACE HOUSE

Conversion of single dwelling house into 2 x 2 bed self-contained flats and involving the replacement of the existing glazed lean-to structure with a single storey extension.

Reason for refusal:

1. Living spaces in the flats were considered unsuitable sizes and fell below space/area requirements as set out by Lambeth council planning guide lines.

Positives:

1.The small rear extension was considered suitable as long as materials were sensitively chosen to match existing dwelling.
