When I saw the email saying congratulations, I was over the moon. I totally forgot that I actually entered the competition. When I heard I’d won, well, I actually cried.
The building has been designed to be sustainable and efficient as well as welcoming atmosphere to help people experience a good journey whilst inside.” The decorative patterns help the natural shading inside the building to stop overheating inside the building as well as creating the shadows effect of the sun poking into the interior. The structure creates triangle shapes same as the structure of the leaf which has been filled with timber plates, glazing or patterns. “The glulam structure of the building have been supported by secondary structure to resist the load. The building itself is separated onto two parts where both pods have been inspired by a dissection of a leaf and its elements which then have been pushed and pulled to create a delicate structure of glulam natural material which respond to the context of the site as well as holding onto the drive of the concept - nature.” “The landscape designed around the building have been used for flood barrier as well as for whole year outdoor comfort. “The language of architecture used in the proposal has taken to a count sustainability and natural design to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere and environment for visitors. “The design of this project has been inspired by nature and its influence on people and architecture” Marina says. It was a tough project, very complicated and I had to work really hard to resolve it.” I am very thankful to my tutor Alessandro Columbano because he helped me to develop every little part of my project even if I wasn’t sure about it. It was a life changing project I would say. “The work I’ve submitted to enter the competition was actually my project from university from my final year. Talking about it afterwards, Marina explained: The panel of judges evaluated submissions based on design integrity, originality, the effective use of computer technology and communications of design visions." To apply for the prize, students had to submit their best individual or group project and answer three questions in 150 words or less.
