Welcome to the The Faculty of Environment and Technology 2022 Virtual Degree show.
The project starts with the identification of the M32 as an Urban Cut (intention/ meaning). A storyboard, a film, an installation and a map were developed, studying urban landscapes and filmic syntax, but also, facades’ relationships through images’ flattening. The map is a study of shadows; folding and unfolding the site plan. A masterplan reveals a possible future development (Bearpit to area after Cabot Circus parking), focusing opposite the parking for the project’s design. The project becomes a destination and a restoration of the community. The Acoustics Centre -‘Ear’ of the City- constitutes an investigation of sound waves through facades’ design, where Bristol is the source of information. The events and music/ sounds cut through spaces, creating Soundscapes and Streetscapes. The building’s experience is divided in urban, alternative -through sound modifications- and urban reflection. Entering the ramps, thematic rooms, featuring music, materiality, installations, form the controlled sound experience of spaces.
