This stage focused on further developing the proposal within Rhino by refining spatial forms, seating arrangements, and tensile canopy structures across the site. The process involved testing dimensions, structural relationships, and the positioning of landscape elements to better understand how the design would function spatially and visually within the wider masterplan. Digital modelling allowed for the exploration of scale, material relationships, and structural form throu

This stage focused on refining conceptual sketches and beginning the transition from hand-drawn spatial ideas into digital modelling within Rhino. Initial sketches explored movement patterns, desire lines, viewing points, and relationships between the river edge, pathways, and proposed intervention spaces to further develop the spatial organisation of the site. The process then moved into Rhino, where early design forms, landscape geometries, and planting layouts began to be

This stage focused on producing the first base design sketches directly over the site analysis plan to begin exploring spatial relationships, circulation routes, planting zones, and intervention opportunities across the site. Sketching over the analytical framework allowed early ideas to respond closely to existing conditions, topography, and surrounding urban connections. The process involved testing different configurations of pathways, gathering spaces, habitat areas, wate

This stage of the project focused on extracting and developing site contour information using GIS data and digital modelling workflows. Contour lines were generated from topographical datasets and transferred into Rhino and Grasshopper to begin constructing a more accurate understanding of the site’s terrain and elevation changes. The process involved experimenting with parametric workflows, terrain generation, and digital mapping techniques to translate GIS information into

This stage of the project focused on developing the 1:2500 site analysis through mapping, spatial investigation, and contextual research. I explored circulation routes, urban structure, green spaces, and the relationship between the riverfront and surrounding built environment to build a broader understanding of the site conditions and spatial connections. Working within the library environment supported the refinement of analytical drawings and mapping techniques, allowing m

This week focused on contributing to the development and organisation of the group report through visual research, site analysis, and precedent exploration. Real-life examples were documented to understand planting character, ecological conditions, and the spatial qualities present within different landscape environments. Existing precedent imagery and site photographs were incorporated into the report to support the analytical narrative and strengthen the visual communicatio
