This reading got me thinking about the potentials of Paddington Central as a suburban site.
Brand (1997) introduces the six S's as the temporal layers of architecture. To introduce and apply these to the paddington vicinity:
Site: Paddington Central on La Trobe Terrace is a topographic site located in very close proximity to the Brisbane CBD. Although fundamentally 'inner-city' context, it was historically developed as a worker's suburbia in earlier Brisbane days. It remains a suburban setting, with hints of urban cosmopolitan and activity. I propose that an intervention at Paddington Central should tempt suburbia to the intellectualism of goals and ambition inherent within central urbanity.
Structure: The structure SHOULD curtail a broken form which grants blocked vistas but acts as an anchor to the community.
Skin: Technology is literally changing the face of Architectural language. Perhaps an intervention at the Paddington Central site
Services:
