PROPOSAL:

To bond/blend the building to site using the experience of memorable spaces and show a continuum, from the exterior to the interior, the environment into the building. In order to do so one must understand the identities found in Coggee the nature formation of the site, the journey of the beach the curvature the level changes of the landscape (cliffs and sand) and lastly look deeply into materiality.
My main focus of the community centre is really driven by the concept of the ‘community’ how it is been recognized and be used, heavily depended on its function how people use the building. Form is created to blend to the nature site which won’t be glamorous or bold as the site but stunning in a way from its size and the use of materiality.

Key words:
Reminisce /familiar à function: access/usage
A material: light/atmosphere
A space: emotion/ level changes/ size/ perspective view
FEELING:
(The site to me is really quiet explored by the group of people which are mainly local users and shown by threshold as been tight together and materiality as I call it ‘strength’ a term for solid material shows the site for been more of a private local usage)
(I am really fascinated by how the building is formed into the landscape trying to create this mutual bond as something you are familiar as it fits into the community not something different outrageous. As it started off no more than a feeling which one day on a mislead trip to a place which I didn’t recognize, only buildings were in the content, big modern buildings as it suggested somewhere in central as I walked I realized it was a street I’ve been before. The thought gave a deep understanding of modernism trend as it has no bonds to the landscape gave which feared me as building we build are clean of ornamental and are pure geometry shapes, as in doing so we destroy the stories and history of buildings which bonds itself to the site..)
