Initial Concepts
Chosen Concept
The concept that I have chosen to develop further is 'Sketch 3' (Shown Above). Some of the reasons for this are:
- The concept enables the structure to blend in more easily into the surrounding backgrounds
- The concept is simple design meaning that costs of the structure will be reduced
- Because the simple design will enable a better structural frame to be constructed giving the building more stability during periods of high winds
- Because the sleeping arrangements are at the top of the structure buried into the trees which will allow for maximum privacy whilst at the same time providing a relaxing atmosphere being surrounded by nature.
- The concept allows for future / further extensions and developments to take place as time progresses which will allow the client to provide new and improve existing services for the general public who wish to use the facility.
- The 'Central Hub' concept allows for better use of the suspended walkway and will allow for the disabled bodied person to experience all the same features as the able bodied
