project04:Interactions
After the site visit it is clear that there is a need for student amenities on site. The students need a space that is theirs, where they can relax, study, meet or even party. Project 4 will provide the students with a space that is flexible and determined by them. The facility will not only be open to students. This new urban space will be used by locals and tourists alike. The facility will also act as a transition zone between other developments on site. The project interacts with a number of other actors and will provide a pathway between elements. It can be noted that the site, as it exists today, is extremely baron. There is nothing to soften the harsh industrial surrounds. Project 4 will endeavour to deal with this, whilst still keeping the integrity / history of the site alive.
The connections that Project 4 will aim to link are listen below:
Links to existing OBJECTS:
It is connected to the RDM campus. The students and teachers of RDM need somewhere to frequent after school hours. The school campus itself needs to be physically connected to Project 4 for traffic to be generated in the development. http://prototag.hyperbody.nl/prototag.php?id=Sgjo6R0RU3TRiW2jGzKkyA
The removable seating that exists outside of the RDM campus. These seating areas show an attempt to create a recreational / relaxation space for students on site however they have been neglected and as a result are not used as they should be. They also have no shelter so don't offer a suitable space to frequent in the winter months. These seating areas can be redesigned as a part of Project 4. http://prototag.hyperbody.nl/prototag.php?id=aBrHvIxRYkRZipNmAagZQg
Links to PEOPLE:
The RDM student Mike stated that there was no activity for students on site after school hours. There were no student amenities or places that could be enjoyed by classmates. Mike has outlined the need, and therefore has created the link between students, the site, and the future development. http://prototag.hyperbody.nl/prototag.php?id=UdUXUfD7AjQBun2oqUaOvQ
and other RDM students (person1) - as above. http://prototag.hyperbody.nl/prototag.php?id=hZvZTjiBwESFeytIFwZrig
Links to other DEVELOPMENTS:
Connection to Project 5 as it is interested in extending the RDM campus and improving the day to day experience of the students. Project 4 is also aiming at achieving this. As it stands, there is still potential in becoming one single development or feeding off each other to create multiple student developments.

Connection to DwellingGrower, as this deals with student housing. Perhaps there can be a physical link between our buildings to create traffic as well as integrate the day students with ones that live on site in this new development. Project 4 may possibly become the link itself between the student housing and the RDM campus. http://prototag.hyperbody.nl/prototag.php?id=6DX6vS6hCMSZgJPiHMonVQ
Interactions also can be made between the Brewery. Much like the bar at BK City, it could provide a popular place for students to meet after university. Connections between buildings could be a possibility to help liven the area in the night time hours. http://prototag.hyperbody.nl/prototag.php?id=qUFJhhGr8MR9xPOT1iI7OA
The project Temporary Pavilion is also of interest to Project 4. The temporary pavilion has the ability to lend space to the student hub for an event. The student hub will become adaptive to its student's needs as much as possible, but when extra space is needed the temporary pavilion could perhaps connect to the student hub for a given amount of time. http://prototag.hyperbody.nl/prototag.php?id=O1sUbh7UHxSNUalQF8Gc2g
