admin staff library cafe food-tech design

The design responsibilities have now been assigned. The following models and drawings describe my process in designing this section.
This is the face of the school. All the various parties who will visit each need to understand where they need to go, and also understand that this building is primarily for the students. The circulation routes should be wide and views through the building are important for orientation.

The building form needs to be legible to students. For them, there are areas where they cannot go, ie administration and staff areas, so these will be indicated with different materiality. The following sketch shows how their areas may link. Admin is the first meeting point for students initially when they first go to the school with their parents or receive information. This area will be combined with a student gallery. Then the areas which students use more regularly will be towards the southern end, ie student welfare and counciling.
