Projects undertaken at the Hull School of Architecture, UK 1997/2002
2000/01:
Urban Design, Business Innovation Park, Hull, England.
This project was undertaken as an advanced Specialist Diploma in Urban Design, as part of my Bachelor of Architecture Masters Degree. This postgraduate diploma in Urban Design was achieved as a separate qualification to the Masters programme.
At the start of the century, just as information technology is changing everything, when houses are becoming offices and offices are being turned into apartments, when short-life sheds can be as architecturally significant as Michael Hopkins’ very long-term Portcullis House in London, we should consider whether the office building really is a stable building type. Whatever office buildings become, they will certainly have to transcend the time-bound formulae that have created the cities of the twentieth century.
Through the research I have undertaken, I have identified the principle factors involved in the production of effective and humane working environments based around the ideas of promotion of social contact and interaction, made possible through the adoption and integration of new communication technologies.
