Major Project development sketch:
I have chosen to develop the 5m x 5m around the entry of the showroom and office. All primary structural elements (Floors, walls, roof) will be made from reinforced concrete, cast in-situ. There will be structural columns and beams internally at 5m (approx depending on size and economy of form work). The low roof over the entry will darken the space, contrasting the light colour of the concrete outside (the cave), the glass over will lighten the space beyond. The formwork will be made from marine ply and will be reused for the dropped ceiling over the showroom. There will be a 600H window along the full length of the north and west wall, from floor level up on both floors. Walls over these windows will be hung from floor/roof over.
