The figure beside showing the contra of living social between the west and the east of the site. On the west of the site showing the high end building and high cost living city people, while on the other side has a lot of poor people and low cost shophouses, and shoplots. This phenomenon can be called social inequalities

design
intention
Intention of the design is to create a recreational space as a connector and a place to relax for the poverty and the visitors as well as the workers to arouse their sharing ability of their thinking and ideas through understanding the history behind around the site by taking the historical photos displayed in the gallery as an interacting media.
A recursive element will be imply too as the main design direction. Beside thinking of the building programme of our design, recursion is the requirement instructed by our workbase master.
Elevations.
Golden Incenter design concept comes to the visualisation of the human, Visualisation is about looking and synthesizing the composition of arranged objects near our body. When comes to photo gallery, the gallery is equivalent to human, the objects are equivalent to photos, and composition are equivalent to the aspect ratio.
recursion element
Selection of 3 aspect ratio above is not literally because of there are commonly used as the cropping ratio by the people nowadays.
4:3 = firs photo created using this aspect ratio (1800s)
16:9 = engineers combined 2 ratios forming an optimum ratio use in the TV. (1900s)
1:1 = popularised rapidly due to smartphone app 'Instagram' (2000s)

wall &
ceiling design
Wall and ceiling designed are generated by GRASSHOPPER. The design is generated base on coding, the coding can be simply alter to change the design.
The design generated by each aspect ratio will then be stacked together to create a more stunning design. The stacked blocks shows the hierarchy in a random way without losing its identity and proportions

building forms
attempts
The building form are determined by setting up a set of formulas using GRASSHOPPER too. There will be number sliders in each set of the formula for every single aspect ratio. The slider will be adjusted accordingly. These set of sliders can helps in generate big numbers of forms in a short time. The chosen one will be pick after eliminate the unsuitable forms.
The forms will be eliminate to acquire the most suitable forms to be used for further design development. The elimination rules including fire escape range, forms height, and the area attached to the ground. Setting the rules is to make sure the least problems will be met while developing the design.
