Grown up and Filtered Down
Section elevation communicating the relationships and interactions that occur from the produce cultivation on the roofs and how it filters down to the rest of the building. The journey binds the vertical narrative of the building together and establishes the relationship of the community involvement in the process.
Ownership - Design Development
The growing rooftops create a responsibility among the community, and in turn exposes them to an environment they maybe wouldn’t have been able to access within the city. The space becomes an inclusive learning environment and a tool for education. The biodiversity of the site changes as well as the biodiversity of the neighbourhood.
The Market Hall - Design Development
Moveable growing boxes allows the space to become flexible to the needs of the community. The space is open to shared activities with growing and maintenance drop in sessions and a twice weekly market and events programme.
The Welcome Hub - Design Development
The ground floor of The Open Assembly is a flexible social space that adapts to the needs of the community. With moveable furniture, the concept of ‘interpretation of use’ allows alternative formations within one space to develop
