Design Thesis: Integration and Process

To initiate and show the expression of the mind and the complex process of thoughts though the site and architecture to imitate and show the unseen process that the mind undergoes. Also to demonstrate the artificiality of the canal being integrated/ interceding the natural forms that surround the site. As the user walk through the site they should being to recognise and feel that their surrounding environment is a physical expression of their mind and perception and understand how their narrative is weaved in this part to whole relationship. Attention to the process also inaugurate the idea of detail and amplifying micro processes on a macro level. The detail is found through the experience of the different spaces and as the user travels though areas where different processes are taking place, weather digitally or through analog means the narrative that they experience across the site will constantly be changing overtime. The idea also aims to connect and integrate users though movement weather the structures are connected or not the experience will be cohesive and comprehensive to anyone that approaches the site. In terms of how the concept and programme is connected to the canal site the interconnectivity of the overall site is split into three separate components and brought together through mechanical and natural forms of water. The combined integrity of these elements of the context can be reflective of how the site is also a reflection of complex integration taking place; bring communities, activities, industries and people together.
