Library /Community Buildings & Specialised Housing Project
While working on this project I wanted the public space and building to be harmonic with each other. Saying this I decided to allow the boundaries of the site to shape the forms of the buildings. The community building was designed to be sloped for public access onto its green roof and the Housing project was designed to be dual aspect to allow for good daylighting within the apartments.
During my time in secondary school, I acquired an interest for construction studies and design and communication graphics. The two coincided together for construction and graphics for buildings. Also working at a landscaping company during transition year showed me the importance of design and the thought that goes into landscaping for a house. My desire to retain landscape and incorporate well developed buildings into its natural landscape is why I chose to study architecture in Sligo.
