Concept Sketches and Ideas so far

This blog is to recap thoughts and ideas and to present some concept sketches for the building form.

I saw the need for tangible built solutions that address future issues but also make the public aware of the actions by integrating inhabitable spaces with the functions. I propose a research institute for developing technology and research in mitigating future issues, residential units to cater for rising populations, retail but underground to allow prime city land to have better use, public green spaces, hospitality and food. The recognition of the heritage listed facades will also allow users to connect with the past. It is a very diverse site. The research is broken into 9 fingers - transport, food, population etc. And each finger is viewable to the public.
