Perspective Section, The Lost Soul Hotel, Andrew Street.
For this short two week exercise you are asked to describe a possible scenario for the Herne Hill Velodrome site. The scenario can be inventive but you are required to use existing site conditions (structure, activities, history, materials etc). It is required that your scenario develops at least one new architectural element (roof, platform, floor, stair, wall, screen, window, doorway).
Your scenario should be explained through a 1:50 section. You are encouraged to work on a scan/photo copy of one of your existing sections, adding more information, or to produce a new section at an appropriate location within the site. We encourage you to construct the section using a composite of analogue and digital drawing techniques, collage and photography. Your scenario should express temporality (time), duration, transition and incorporate one or more elements listed below.. In order to construct convincing narratives, you might consider producing more than one section or even a series of progressive sections that can describe events over time, movement etc...
elements to consider in your section:
-occupancy
-use
-views
-velocity
-wind, weather and weathering
-light and shadow
-lightness and density
-texture/material
-water
