project3

Rationale In this project the location is in Maroubra junction pacific square. There have café and small restaurants around square so my design also considers the people who waiting take away food and drink coffee. My public benches design plays with the combination of cubes. There have two stand cubs with handrail on the back, people could leaned against the cubs waiting for take away food. The three small cubs in the front is sitting area for people drink coffee and relax. The interesting part is two bigger cubs on the side. There have small benches in the bigger cubs. So if there have more people want to sit there they could rotate the benches out. The rotation axis interlocks benches together and prevents people steal it. There have social problem like people come to the place but they don’t interact. so I want to encourage a social interaction between people so that they can have the sense of community. The hiding benches are a part of interactive and attract people willing to play with it. Consider the safety problem I arranged these two hiding benches system on the side so it will not regard people use the area.
