We were tasked toto develop an architectural narration for place making in the city and to perform an integrated design. Architectural strategy should be resolved for form, activity and circulation, through technical integration. We were then to develop architecture FORM, SPACE and FACADES for
​

• Positive outdoor space (site layout)​

• Building size and scale (sections)

• Building for change (space planning/function)

• A thriving public realm (connection to the street)

• ​​Animating the edge (facade design)

​

The proposed building should be of an area of minimum 1200 m2 and a maximum of 1300 m2 and 3- 5 storeys high in the given block boundaries. Apart from developing a narrative on architectural strategy in response to the relevant questions pertaining to community and its context, the design should take into consideration a holistic application of structural, spatial, technical, environmental, services, and legislative requirements to address the user needs for an urban Community Centre. This will include a focus on tropical design, lighting as well as the design of the facade and building envelope that is of a coherent language to the overall design scheme.
