These images below represent the final 'Integrated Design' project in second year. The nine week design project was based at Hemswell Cliff, a site which is renowned for it's antique markets and history as a WW2 RAF base. The brief for the project began with an object investigation that had to be attained from the antique markets. The object which defined 'The Depository of Constituents' was a typewriter. Through extensive investigations into the typewriter both the metaphor and language were applied to site to generate the architecture. The three functions of the building were an auction house, an archive and finally three writer's retreats. The contrasting qualities of space allowed the design to manipulate appropriate public and private spaces.
