Linked to the linearity of the Stade my proposal aims to maintain the movement of people through the long structure of repeated arches in the form of upside down boats. Walking through each arch creates a different atmosphere and users can chose to eat their Angels on Horseback (traditional Kentish dish - oysters wrapped in bacon/prosciutto) or to move through, towards the promenade.]]> 2017-12-14 10:11:28 UTC https://padlet.com/duartesanto/uow_arch_y1_s1_projects/wish/216089704 Isabelle Reid https://padlet.com/duartesanto/uow_arch_y1_s1_projects/wish/216092350 Design in situ opposite the Ship Inn pub.

I was inspired by the boat triennials created by Jonathan Wright as a representation of Folkestone previously being known as a fishing town. This can be seen through the three components of my food shack The shelter,the seating area and the main food shack. The foodshack and the shelter are meant to represent the skeleton of a boat upside down, through their ribbed structure whereas the seating area represent a complete boat.]]> 2017-12-14 21:45:22 UTC https://padlet.com/duartesanto/uow_arch_y1_s1_projects/wish/216343184 Mariam Jamal Eddin https://padlet.com/duartesanto/uow_arch_y1_s1_projects/wish/216344588 2017-12-14 21:52:29 UTC https://padlet.com/duartesanto/uow_arch_y1_s1_projects/wish/216344588 Maryam Babayeva https://padlet.com/duartesanto/uow_arch_y1_s1_projects/wish/216344995 Conceptual Collage showing different processes]]> 2017-12-14 21:54:26 UTC https://padlet.com/duartesanto/uow_arch_y1_s1_projects/wish/216344995 Liva Balode https://padlet.com/duartesanto/uow_arch_y1_s1_projects/wish/216355103 Inspired by local French artist/wax sculptor and some prominent architects, like Renzo Piano and Shigeru Ban, I designed food shack for both people and bees. In this food shack one could taste natural honey, royal jelly and honey bread or buy a wax sculpture made by artist and participate in honey harvesting if wishes. The shack is separated in 3 parts: one for people to eat and view the sea, one for beekeeper and artist to work and last one for bees to fly around without any interactions. There would be one observation bee hive so that people could know what is happening inside the hive. ]]> 2017-12-14 23:01:11 UTC https://padlet.com/duartesanto/uow_arch_y1_s1_projects/wish/216355103 Sarah Daoudi https://padlet.com/duartesanto/uow_arch_y1_s1_projects/wish/216358362 My concept was to create a theatrical and fantastical space where visitors could pick ice cream and fro yo flavours from the greenhouse then watch their dessert being prepared with liquid nitrogen and pick their own toppings from the large dispensers, whilst watching the ocean through the windows and translucent dispensers.]]> 2017-12-14 23:40:06 UTC https://padlet.com/duartesanto/uow_arch_y1_s1_projects/wish/216358362 Maryam Islam https://padlet.com/duartesanto/uow_arch_y1_s1_projects/wish/216360144 My concept is a public space for people to enjoy.

The cube is formed by one piece of paper only, like a circuit, and by opening it I found different shapes.
The interior space is allowing for both closed and open areas. The closed area in formed by a glass box, including the roof.
The solid roof of the pavilion is retractable to allow exposing the glass roof so the sun can enter to give more light inside. ]]> 2017-12-15 00:53:36 UTC https://padlet.com/duartesanto/uow_arch_y1_s1_projects/wish/216364013 Georgiana Ilie geo_laura_ilie https://padlet.com/duartesanto/uow_arch_y1_s1_projects/wish/216364906 Models showing both closed roof and opened roof. ]]> 2017-12-15 01:05:04 UTC https://padlet.com/duartesanto/uow_arch_y1_s1_projects/wish/216364906 Umaru U-K https://padlet.com/duartesanto/uow_arch_y1_s1_projects/wish/216368149 The ultimate childhood experience.

The initial concept is to create an easy and efficient way of expanding the area. 

The first portions of the shack is the kitchen which is able to slide out, through the use of tracks. On the opposite side, being the entrance of the building also had the ability slide in and out expanding the interior space. On both side of the shack, it consist of expanding the horizon space used extra room, allowing more customers to enjoy the meals while sitting down. 

(Model still needs to go through further development)

I looked at Dogfish which are accidentally caught by local fishermen and thrown back because they aren't commercially sold. Dogfish would cooked and sold in my food shack.
