See moreMy concept for the SES Decorated shed project was felt. Through researching the ideology and precedent buildings the clear concepts of felt was the interconnection and intertwining of space, but also by being able to visually connecting the spaces. So using this theory I decided to explore this concept through the spaces which connect rooms and area; hence “felt by circulation”. This can be seen mainly through the ramp and stair systems which link the floors together. These allow occupants to change floors but also connect into different spaces while using them visually felting them into the main spaces. For the exterior screen the idea of felt was also explored. Through using the previous screen project a similar component was found and manipulated to create 3 layers of the exterior screen. These layers where then weaved together linking and creating one felted screen. When exploring the site vernacular in Marrickville and searching for pattern the most interesting feature was the wear and tear of materials. Materials seemed take the natural cause of action of. Corroding, decaying recreating the original material to suite its environment. This idea was used for the screen material being Corten; the material will be forever changing linking into the context of Marrickville. The screens play a curial role within the interior. The internal layout has been designed to celebrate the screen allowing the users see and understand the work of the SES, that being weaving and protecting the community in time of need. At night the building will glow allowing the surrounding neighbour to feel protected.
