Conceived as an Ultra
Contemporary backdrop to St. Michans Church. Extensive use of high
spec. glazing was envisaged. Metal fins in coloured stainless steel
were proposed to the entrance at Church Street and were
carried around the perimetre to subdivide the Building mass into
seperate zones.
I conceived a
Truss structure to carry the floor plates which would be directly
expressed as a diagonal motive to the Southern Facade . A jewel box
effect was envisaged as a backdrop to light up Michans Church after
dark. The Proposal was welcomed initially by Planners but Planning
was subsequently refused by Council on the basis that the building
was not suited to the Location.
