Determining Mixed Building Functions



In order to discover my design, I combine the three different approaches which I done before (Future Scenario, Site Context, and Site State Condition). With the whole diagram combined, I find a significant need of cultural education centre. Furthermore, the building must become a bridge to overcome the future worst scenario, also enhance the identity of Woodford, and become one with the site physical condition.

To begin with, I will explain the relation between the function of the building and the worst future scenario. Since the building aim is to achieve survival of humanity (by teaching present people about the importance of multi culture and self sufficient in order for them to stand together and overcome the worst future scenario)., Furthermore, this concept represent a bridge which will prepare the present future for getting through the worst scenario of the future to a self sufficient world. In order to teach them about the multi culture and self sufficient, a museum is needed. Since the main aim is to introduce the culture to the people so it is much better showing them live culture then historical figures. Therefore, I decide to create a living museum.

Furthermore, the cultural education centre will also strengthen the identity of Woodford rather than change it. Furthermore, the building will serve as an activity centre and will encourage people to camp in Woodford not only while the festival take place. Furthermore, the cultural education centre will also equip with a theatre which will introduce the event which will occur during the Woodford Festival. In other words, the building acts as a miniature of the Woodford festival. Therefore, it will signify a gate which will become a transition of the camping area and the festival ground.

Moreover, the building will also act as a sculptural element of the site which will become an icon of the Woodford. I want the building to leave an experience which will be memorable every time people come to the Woodford.

Based on all of the function relation, it is clear that the cultural education centre needed. Furthermore, the cultural education centre needs to consist of living museum, theatre, and public space which will become an icon of the Woodford.
