Circulation

The circulation inside the building will be formed from temporary walkways that sit on top of the super structure. Service runs and lighting will be accommodated within the walkways.

Venue Structure

The Venue is intended as a flexible space. The shell will be constructed in concrete and insulated to reduced the sound escaping from the venue into the surrounding residences.
The internal walls of the venue will be clad with perforated structural panels that will provide a support for temporary structures within the venue [and improve the accoustics of the venue], such as temporary seating, raised platforms, stages, lighting rigs etc. The venue can be used as a triple height void space or several levels of tiered seating could be installed. the wall of the venue facing the pods will be punctured at regular intervals. The punctured holes will be infilled with removable wall panels [ that can be removed to provide access to different levels of the venue when temporary structures are in place internally.

Frame Work Structure for the Pods

I have been playing around with a structure for the pods to sit in. The idea is that the super structure is a permanent installation on the site but the pods that sit within it will be independant structures manufactured from salvaged objects. The circulation will hang from the super structure. In the future the pods and circulation can be reconfigured to suit the users.
