Worksop Bus Station

Curtain walling design


Design in a specific shape


09/12/14



After listening to the architect, we then began designing the curtain walling in a circle, as you would find most curtain walling, however, we were to experiment with shapes, designs and idea's, that could then possibly expand from the shape provided into something more. The idea is to follow what the architect was hinting at, but add our own twist on it so as to push him out of his comfort zone into something a little more adventurous.

Still following on with my idea of Worksop through the seasons, I began drawing, using the Victorian water pumping station and the Savoy theatre


Because the design was in a circle, I decided to try out a fish lens design.

I then started thinking about having one design that progressed throughout the circles
Using my old design of 'Travelling through Worksop'


After this, I though about geometry: Going against the curve of the circular template.

The first design got me thinking about using Worksop from an Ariel view as a base, so I researched and got a map for reference



After this, I went back to my idea of Worksop through the seasons, however, instead of using buildings, I decided to use iconic flowers found throughout Britain within the seasons. I then settled on using Daffodils, Poppies, Sunflowers and Snowdrops.

The idea was that each of these different flowers broke out of the confines of the circles in one way or form, whether it be the actual flower its self, or something coming off of the flower, or both.
