Urban Farm
First Year Projects
The Lace Market area is full of Victorian buildings, Gothic style buildings, and Renaissance style buildings. To blend with these buildings and not appear obtrusive, I think the minimalist style should be more suitable for the design of this project. The minimalist design of simple geometric shapes will not deprive people of the sight of historical monuments due to various exquisite and complicated shapes or decorations, and the generous and simple minimalist style still looks no less inferior to the historical monuments.
Location:The Lace Market,
Nottingham
I carefully inspected the well known buildings near High Pavement, including St Mary’s Church, County House, National Justice Museum, and The Lace Market Theatre, and found that these buildings are characterized by rectangular, triangular and even circular patterns, and some buildings have a lot of glass windows.
I will use circles, rectangles and triangles in the design of the overall building. The circle has the concept of circulation, so I will design a cylindrical building with many floor to ceiling windows, and a rainwater filtering device at the bottom, which represents the urban farm has the characteristic of recycles.
The Lace Market Theatre is shaped like a key, so the image of my building is like a key, a key to open history and mind.
