There are 3 central space, organised by an allocation of public and private spaces as shown in the drafts and Section. The Forms had an aim of being performance oriented through glazing and the use of wood (low embodied carbon), with a mindset of optimised natural ventilation. This is how I suggested a link to my theory.
Through iterations of design 'The Sendai Mediatheque' and its section has changed dramatically under the conditions of the urban layout. The goal was to have the Teaching and Office Space at the lower campus, while Gallery and Learning Centre would distance itself onto the other side of Anzac Parade (connecting to NIDA). This meant stepping away from the rectalinear and enclosed form factor of Toyo Ito's 'Sendai Mediatheque'.
To link the spaces, a wooden bridge oscillates throughout the lower campus with it's 'sine wave' geometry. This is more of a sculptural decision in terms of thinking about form, however the natural geometry has good structural integrity, and is composed of concrete. The sine wave is a direct link to curves that are often seen throughout nature- hence the idea of biomimicry (as mentioned in the theory).
