final lumion environment


the bridge connects the squarehouse with the roundhouse creating an adaptive connection within UNSW



the section connecting the two structures is made out of glass and constantly moves depending on the capacity of each building and closing times. Thus, this is an adaptable and responsive structure.



the structure on top of the squarehouse acts as a gallery/entry area for students and visitors, but this can be adapted into different spaces depending on the needs of the school. The texture used in this space is shown below:




the outside of the gallery features the texture below: 




on the other side of the bridge is the main part of the building, the stairs ahead lead up to a lecture theatre and the stairs below lead to a study space for students. Straight ahead is a cafe and elevator down to the bottom floor. The texture used for the stairs is shown below:




the lecture theatre is located in the space between two merging geometries and has full walls of glass on either side. 



 the cafe is located on the middle floor of the main building, for students to relax and socialise



the bottom floor has a large window on one end and has two long benches with stools for studying, the remaining area can be adapted to become a meeting space, a relaxing space with bean bags or even a computer lab if needed.

final moving elements


movement 1: the glass bridge section of the structure moves up and down enable the building to adapt to the amount of students accessing the building. If there are too many students inside the building, the bridge will rise and no more students will be allowed inside. Similarly when the school is closed the bridge will be lifted.

movement 2: the glass windows move depending on the temperature inside the building - they move when more air is required from outside.
