| |
| − | Before going to the site to explore it, we tried to come up with what (site) aspects we wanted to look at, and how we were planning on doing that.
| |
| − | The site is currently a park

| − | '''The challenges'''
| |
| − |
| |
| − | "In our own design work – the ‘context’ is a main centre of effort. It is not exactly a question of ‘fitting- in’, but of re-materialising, re-focusing – the words are difficult. The context may demand a totally invisible building or no building, a ‘countergeometry’ or a ‘continuation geometry’. In a way like decorating, re-arranging and ‘preparing’ a room, for a real homemaker, a real restaurateur or inn-keeper it is more than a question of taste: it is an act of both continuity and re-generation." Peter Smithson

| |
| − | To allow two systems to interact actively, in a sort of continuous exchange of information, knowledge and feelings in order to reactivate the potential network of the city.

| |
| − | '''The Problems:'''
| |
| − |
| |
| − | - no relation between site and context
| |
| − |
| |
| − | - no attractive elements
| |
| − |
| |
| − | - a lot of traffic around
| |
| − |
| |

| |

| |
| − | '''The Opportunities:'''
| |
| − |
| |
| − | - becoming a bridge between city and TU/TNO
| |
| − |
| |
| − | - new place to show scientific results
| |
| − |
| |
| − | - becoming a new meeting point
| |
| − |
| |
| − | - to extend the botanical gardens
| |
| − |
| |
| − | - becoming a new landmark for the north entrance of the TU
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''The How:'''
| |
| − | creating a public platform, a topological surface continuously molded, bent and deformed by the actions of the elements that compose the surface.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | In this space there's no distinction between object and context but are privileged interconnections.
