Underpass: Experimenting with volumes
This video demonstrates the basic concept behind the design approach of the Underpass design. The walls of the Underpass will lose their verticality and develop inside it like rocks, shapes that represent an abstract form similar to a colliery site, linking the history of the Underpass to its main use years ago from the Tanshelf community.
The process has four parts. In first we divide the Volume of the Underpass into 15 equal parts (every 1 meter). The 15 planes that we have, are divided into a square grid that represent points in space and then we connect these points in order to create volumes. The final result is then attached back to the original volume.
This process is on a conceptual stage at the moment and will be examined more specifically with accurate measurements. That is the stage where the design will be examined in ways of connecting with the surrounding area, materials that can be used, light fixtures and other details.
