Week 7 - Defining the type of the building from inspirational exemplars


Oslo Opera House Norway - ErikBerg



Sydney Opera House


Tenerife Concert Hall




Three of the most inspirational buildings affecting my direction on the design. Also following the original function of the FOLIE DESIGN, my view on the type of building for Howard Wharves Smith is focused on a "Performing Art Centre".

I intend to have a a small-medium drama theater holding between 150-200 people for a show. At this point I'm also thinking of making it flexible to other uses such as small scale musical performance and/or conference.

The 3 pictures up there are really important in my take toward the design mainly because of their approach towards modern design and forms, in which I truly believe my building to reflecgt in order to contrast the messy industrial look of the story bridge but also because those buildings share up to a point the tectonics and colors I which my building to possess.
