Project Brief

The brief for this project is very relaxed. It has been assigned to us as individuals to formulate.

The aim of this project is to design a structure in the chosen site, Howard Smith Wharves, which;

• Is approximately 1000m2 in size
• Plays with scale of large proportions so as to define it as an iconic structure
• Has a close relationship with the site context
• Activates the site by creating a purpose and attracting users to the space
• Coordinates and further enhances the existing use of the space
• Effectively combines residential, commercial and recreational spaces together
• Has a defined relationship between public and private spaces
• Has a ferry terminal that allows public transport access to the site
