Working Plan Update

(Collingham Gardens) Children’s Art School

The ideas and design of the sand box will be brought back as part of the playground. As well as how to generate energy through a seasaw, or swings.

This plan currently holds the Class/work rooms for the children, to learn and use clay as their medium for sculptures or pottery. To learn through the clay what is truly below their feet and how they can use it.

Some of the timbers of the structure will be covered in clay, as an insulator in the winter, and a cooling space in the summer. When during a rainy day the clay washes off, there will need to be more clay reapplied.

Boy/Girl Washrooms (2)

The floor below will hold the soil Library, and a small lab, with a changing room.

Currently Designing the Soil Alchemy Labs

Children’s Art School & Nursery + Soil Library/Catalogue (Includes small Lab)

Positioned along and beside the garden wall.

Children will Learn and practice sculptures with clay, and understanding clay as a part of an art program.

The Play ground Elements or the act of play could be an opportunity to gather energy or power.

Clay Insulation, and showing the shrinking and swelling of the clay. Temporary / Replaceable clay portions.

Foundations that are able to adjust to the shrinking and swelling of the soil.

Like the skeleton of a clay model, the architecture becomes the skeleton in which to lay the clay. and exposing the soil of the site within the architecture.

Consider more of the actual Technical details and materiality of the structures.

UPDATE

The Art School Will be an extension of the Childrens Nursery and will hold a path that leads to the Foundling Museum.

Currently Working on Plan & Section of Art School and the Soil Labs.

W.I.P

Organizational Diagram (Draft)

Orange Portion Will be replaced by the sketch.

By surfaces that change in angle relative to another surface according to the moisture level in the soil, which are detected through moisture meters that detect electrical conductivity. Certain Surfaces will be able to change with mechanical systems that are in constant connection with the meters.

Will trace sketch and begin 3D modeling it.

Composition Sketches

3 Main Types of Spaces

1. Alchemist Laboratories

- Soil Labs: Following some of the Building Regulations of Laboratories, the Lab surfaces and tables will be impervious to chemicals, well ventilated, with fireproof walls. (Aedicule)

-Storage: Microscopes, Chemical Equipment, G.P.R, etc

2.Childrens Space (Positioned through Collingham Gardens and the Nursery space)

- Art Work Shop

- Play/learning space (Aedicule)

- Soil Library/ Archive

-->Acts as the link to the Foundling Museum, and the Collingham Nursery.

3. Training/Play Space (Positioned inside the Collingham Gardens)

-Tree Training

-Tree Propagating

- Open Garden Play space

AEDICULE:

The Aedicule will become the merging space (The central axis or blurred border) between the Children and Art with the alchemical soil labs. Where Children can experience seeing the alchemists work on the soil of the site, learn through playing in the aedicule freely in the inspiration space (Tree house)

Term 2: AEDICULE 3D Model

Working Model.

Architectural Association. 3rd Year, 1st Term . Juno Yim

Work in Progress, Will Continue the Rest of the List in the coming week.

Currently Working on the 3D Modeling of the Aedicule directly ontop of the Scanned Tree. In order to extract the 3D Perspective views.

Jury 3 Feedback

Ed Bottoms, Mark Morris, Theo Spyropoulos (Architectural Association)

1. There is much needed work in the analysis portions of the project and I will focus on fully organizing the 26 Rule Translation Drawings with more studies and visual explanation of the soil and tree. - Dec 21st

2. Axonometric of street revealing detailed study of area and specific site photos clearly annotated // Axo Detailed study of area with aedicule design // Cut away Axonometric of aedicule with context (Includes editing the other pages in deliverables B) - Dec 27th

3. Arrival perspective, interior perspective, looking out from inside perspective. - Jan 2nd

- Could use a few more sections of the aedicule the short way.

There was also the mention of hard edges within the aedicule, and this is understandable since as of now, the aedicule is mostly just the primary structure and lacks the secondary or tertiary of the soft embrace of different layers and skins.

The Hayfever problem of the plane tree could give clues of how to seasonally use the art school or aedicule.

The positioning of the Aedicule on the tree was questioned by Ed and how my interest is in the soil as well as the tree but the aedicule is less about the soil and more about the tree. Now the decision for the aedicule to keep distance from the ground is to get a different point of view and learn from above. Rather than to set foot directly into the sinking clay foundation of the garden.

The project DEMANDS more information and integration of SOIL.

All Drawings need informational layer that describes and shows the contents of the soil and their relation to the tree/aedicule.

Notes:

Both kids and the trees are learning and learning through play.

Soft embrace!

The Tension between

Body + Tree

Gravestone + Tree

Wind + Weather + Tree

Soil + Children

Soil + body

Response + Notes

Excuse the rough sketch.

Avoiding the sinking ground and relocating in the tree.

Subtle touching of the ground (using the weak points)

Using the wall, ground, tree, tombstones, Drainage points,Metal Tie Bars (The weaknesses) to anchor the Aedicule in the tree as a hovering, Agile structure for the children of Collingham Garden Nursery as an educational space about the Gardens (St George + Collingham) and teaching art and poetry.

Dissolving the boundaries of the two gardens through a series of markers such as the tombstones

Platelets, and the layering of them in certain moments of the Aedicule.

Bladders/Cisterns Counter Balancing the Human body weight. –> Could the change in weight cause the aedicule to move and adjust? Or squeeze the bladders.

Using the soft structure (bladders) that touch the tree trunk (a growing object) as something that grows and moves with the tree and attaching with the harder structures of the aedicule i.e floor.

Lightweight Structure: Perforations in the floor and the Aedicule hanging on the Tree.

Photogrammetry an existing London Plane Tree In the garden to use for modeling (In Progress)

Make Aedicule Much Smaller x 10

Sketch Work Scans

Current Thoughts:

Entry Portal through the Henrietta Mews and the Children’s Nursery.

Tree as a Genetic Code for the Aedicule. The Trees in St. George’s Garden could both support and be supported by the aedicule. (Must be Specific trees in the garden)

“Pole Vaulting over the wall”

Entry through the mews, entering the children’s nursery, and Over the St. George’s Garden’s wall?

(Vertical Tie bars into the ground = Poles) Changing over time? Sinking elements raise the architecture like a seasaw?

Grafting the wall, ground, tree, tombstones, Tie bar (The weakneses)

Platelets, and the layering of them in certain moments of the Aedicule.

Human body weight counter balancing the bladders/cisterns. --> Could the change in weight open a portal out of the aedicule? Or squeezing the bladders?

Perforations in the floor (lighter)
