These are the field diagrams for exploring the immediate surrounding to the site. I found them to be very useful in setting out the massing which, in keeping with the ethics theme, would accommodate with the nearby buildings externally but have a contrasting element on the inside. The scales for the fields are bound at either end by the same blue colour, accentuating the idea of the in-between. The amplification of the fields is appropriate to the relationships within the twin phenomena discovered on the site.

The title ‘Unknown Pleasures’ is a reference to the album cover for Joy Division’s album of the same name, designed by Peter Saville and originally from the Cambridge Encyclopaedia of Astronomy.

These are abstract studies of the building’s form and materiality. There is still a long way to go, particularly with the eastern elevation (right) which is looking awkward.

This is my updated city dynamics sheet. A work in progress, it needs additional data as well as annotation to explain the various urban scenarios.

This is a “push” / “nudge” to register for structural consultancies on Friday. I received a message from Adam Sharr that not everyone has signed up and he would like everyone to sign up as it is the engineer’s first visit to the WSA. Let’s make a good first impression! Thank you.
