Form Follows Fairytale’

Form Follows Fairytale’

It means "the shape of a building or object should primarily relate to its intended function or purpose”.

This project endeavours to capture the surreal power of the unconscious imagination through the power of dreamtime. There is a large emphasis on connection and engagement with the locals and the site whilst also aiming to create the impossible and encourage activity and productivity within society.

It is challenging to create inclusive, participatory spaces through architecture. I think that our museums today are leaning towards a showroom rather than connecting with a larger infrastructure we have, which is education.
I have proposed a museum for all, a vehicle for two-way participation, that is inclusive of its community both near and far. This collective museum is an urban infrastructure driven by social and economical responsibility. A space willing to give something back to the environment that provides a safe, educational hub for whomever visits.

Community spaces can be adapted to a variety of cultural and recreational functions. This is not to be a frozen library space but rather an opportunity for improvisation and adaptation through flexible workshop spaces.
This project aims to connect peoples of the past, and present to explore ideas of the future.
