Above the ground plane
The brief requires between 5000-10000 square metres of space and I think that is probably not going to be achieved realisitically (at least in terms of flooding?) by putting it all underground. The site covers something like 1000sqm, so I’d

Ramps + public spaces
Is there a way that ramps can be included in the design to form an integral part of the design? Starting to look at how ramps can be used to create the public space and then extend down into the

Going underground
I think the idea of going underground with my proposal makes sense as I really think there is a need for some negative space to counteract the heaviness other the two brutalist institutions of the Museum and QPAC as well

OMA – Casa da Musica
http://oma.eu/projects/2005/casa-da-musica To me, this project is an interesting example of a relatively conventional architecture that embodies elements of what I’m investigating with regards to creating sound experiences that are not within the traditional ‘ideas’ of a music performance venue. I

Times Square – Max Neuhaus
I guess what I love about this work is that it is so exclusively sound-based and yet it creates a place that is distinct from the rest of it’s location. It exists on the border of perceptability, with no indication
