HyperPublic Concept
Hyper : (adjective) Excessively, beyond, above
Public : (noun) People in general (adjective) Open to or shared by all the people
We strive to create an accessible space, adjustable by the users to respond to their specific needs. The demand of the potential users is explored through a questionnaire which will enhance active use of the space.
With our general concept in mind, we decided to explore the following structures: static structure and a dynamic structure.

Research
The study of the site focuses on the visibility to and from the site, this required looking at the current vegetation occupying the space.
'The people want the buildings that represent their social and community life to give more than functional fulfillment. They want their aspiration for monumentality,
joy, pride, and excitement to be satisfied.'
Sigfried Giedion,(1943)- Nine Points on Monumentality
Design
The layout of the site is designed around the surrounding existing buildings as well as the current systems of activities with which it interacts.
"Everything that appears in public can be seen and heard by everybody and has the widest possible publicity. For us, appearance -something that is being
seen and heard by others, as well as by ourselves – constitutes reality."
Arendt (1958) - Human Condition
References
The Tree of Knowledge Memorial is an old tree with a special structure build around it, imitating its old leaves. This could be our way of shaping our structure, letting the pistons move to change it's shape
The Flon Tree is a design for a public place where the roots of the tree functions as benches for people to meet and talk to each other. Our project should function in the same way, the roots coming our of the ground when they are needed
