Our project is basically takes on the use of the spine like in Tokyo Bay, but we are also suggesting that it can also be more of a web our drawings suggest that the spine imposed on top of the site plan takes over what it covers or touches. In this, the next iteration takes us to the idea of how the spine (or a web?) begins to reconfigure buildings that are in its way.One of the infrastructure that we are looking at is streets simply because it of its 'spine-like' qualities (it connects, expands, reaches out etc) and how it can direct. Therefore perhaps through reconfiguring the streets as well as the buildings is an aim of creating and implementing this 'green connection' or 'green spine' of our design.
Drawing 1) By extending the streets of all different sizes from Melb CBD (flagstaff area) towards Docklands what is looks like is number of spines
Drawing 2) If the extents (they no longer have to be streets, only lines that suggest some sort of connection) are to be elevated and then connected
in some way
Drawing 3) On plan, if the extents/'streets' are connected in some way whenever they intersect (regardless of line weight/street size)...Drawing 4) Imposed on site, can see what buildings can now be configured
Drawing 5) Cont'd
Questions to ask now are: What exactly are those 'extents' (if no longer streets) are they some structure? or doesn't have to be physical, can be a form of program!?
Fun begins
