Project foreshadowing
The task I set, in addition to the brief, was to craft a building that would become the equivalent of a foreshadow in literary text to indicate the genius and celebration of the heritage house on site.
Focus areas:
The Modern Artefact
The proposed building is a deliberately contemporary intervention, using controlled geometry and refined materiality to contrast with and elevate the heritage house.Site Context
The building is strategically positioned to respect the site’s spatial hierarchy, preserving key sightlines and reinforcing the prominence of the existing structure.The Approach
The arrival sequence is carefully choreographed to reveal the heritage house gradually, using moments of framing and anticipation to heighten its impact.
