The presentation

Overall I think I went well with this presentation. Of course time was a factor which made it hard to get everything I wanted done. I have posted some more panels below that I thought were really good.

Final Design

The final design has been named the HSW Supper Club the ultimate destination for dining, drinking and entertaining.

Concept

Howard smith wharves have been used over time by Brisbane shipping companies however in recent years it has been left abandoned. The history of the site and the stunning views were left, making it a beautiful place in need of renovation and repair. This is how I came up with my concept of abandoned beauty. This has meant that this design is a continuation of my folie design for this site using wrapped concrete to create flow and beauty, however, separating or abandoning it from the world.

Social identity

After researching other clubs in the Brisbane area, I noticed that my proposed club would be in the middle linking the clubs from the valley to th ones in the city. I also thought it important that the supper club was more than just a club, but also cater for the general public during the day by having a cafe that has on one side a take away bar for pedestrians and tourists using the area for leisure.
Another important part to look at is the transport to the club. I felt it important to have a small car park for use mainly by disabled elderly and persons with young children, however I wanted to push for public transport as there are residential buildings nearby and wanted tonstay on good terms with them. It is only a close walk to ferry, bus and train as well as people going by foot and bike as it links up to the existing river walk.

The design

You can see the overall site the heritage listed buildings in front. Then the new supper club behind to the left of the story bridge with landscaping all around. The supper club during the day is a fine place for people and pedestrian who are in need of a break in the cafe. The cafe has a take away entry for pedestrians, using the space as a thoroughfare. it is somewhat hidden by the ribbon external structure abandoning it from the outside world.

The supper club hosts 3 lvels. The ground with the reception and cafe bistro, level 1 with the stage for live music bar and amenities, and level 2 containing a space and bar for use for events and function. This level also hosts access to the private bar and lounge.

Overall digitally the design of this is very simple yet elegant as is the same as the site of Howard smith wharves, however with a very modern touch.

Nearly there!

It's the last stretch, with the final tutorial having taken place this week. This gave me a chance to get a final understanding that I was on the right track and now I just need to work to finalizing my design.

Overall I am really happy with my design. I still need to work out the interior spaces but at the moment I am happy with it. I think this is a good thing, as I was not happy with my design for assignment two. Hopefully now I will do better as I am happy with it.

I have started looking at different layouts for the interior.  I am following in the original patterns of the ribbons to see what could come out of it for the floors.
