At this time i had chosen my site to be outside the pickup place outside qut. the centre was going to be situated inside the botanic gardens.. opening it up allowing easier access around that corner (where people go to and from the bus stops to uni).because this idea removes some existing vegetation, i began to think about bringing that back to the space where the building and the garden can be morphed together where the grass crawls up onto the side of the structure. this would create a better blend to the site whilst giving it an aesthetic appeal.
not only this, depending on the steepness of the slopes it could also create more elevated seating when waiting to be picked up
so after another talk with the tutor. i had to really think this idea through.. what is it that is going to drive gen y to use this space? the way that i was thinking about it.. which was having touch screens with information, a virtual customer service|complaint system to filter issues about the government and the council and a gallary space for historical information.Would i want to go in here?? ..... I answered no....... so i had to explore those other aspects that that i questioned earlier and use that in the design... somewhere that information just got lost.
So i wanted to incorporate some type of gaming device. i was thinking a game that educates people about the government. possibly through the design it was able to capture peoples attention and then the game itself.
However after more thought... if this really was the design.. people would only try it out for the first time and then once they've had a go they wouldnt be tempted to try or play it again (it feels as if its a once off try thing and not ongoing) .
