EXP3 Final Submission

a.Mash up

Article 25 believes that buildings, whether ostentatiously or quietly inspiring, play a key role in changing and improving lives. While economic and environmental issues previously prevented sites like the 168-acre Carson site from redevelopment, as Article25 Trustee Lord Norman Foster affirms: As a designer I have always been driven by a belief that the quality of our surroundings directly influences the quality of our lives. The driver for an engineering approach to materials design is meeting a specific need for materials performance in the context of a system. Environmental technology and construction methods can rehabilitate properties once thought unusable, whether in the workplace, at home or in the public spaces that make up our cities. Such a perspective necessitates the focus of the design activity on the wider context of the application. These properties are typically called Brownfields sites and there are hundreds that have been safely rehabilitated for public and private use. Architecture is a social art a necessity and not a luxury. It is generated by the needs of people, both spiritual and physical. Combinations of properties must be considered within specified process, cost, environmental and life cycle constraints.

Concept of the mash-up: Architecture is people-oriented and it is a combination of culture, technology and arts.

e.Two Moving Elements

1.Water:  Hot water and cold water run through two kinds of tubes separately and
circulate within the whole construction. The tubes surround every part of the
bridge. The water inside regulates the temperature and adds vigor to the bridge.





2.Floating Platform: There are five floating platforms moving around. People can travel from place to place within Square House using these woody elements other than the paths. Besides, the platforms can be used as covering when it is raining.





f.Images of the Bridge















The design concept of the bridge is combination. As Square House is meant to be an architectural school, the shape of the path is like a triangle, the strongest shape in construction. On the other hand, the shape of the function area buildings are circular truncated cones, like whirlpools. With the addition of the spring-like structures, it is a combination of tradition and new tide, also a combination of statics and dynamics.
