The Design is Starting!!

Colour Code Key

 The important Structural Elements that are going to be getting in my way where i want to rip everytging out of this ugly building!

 A nice little idea to introduce two courtyards. The one on street face to allow pedestrians to see into the building all the way up and then another one at the back for the residents of the space. A private walkway from the parking level will ensure access is kept private.
How i want to influence the facade of the building. It needs a little bit of help.
Ground: Stacking or sliding glazed shopfronts
First: Semi closed with plants to add a green element to the building relating to the park across the road and to conceal cars and reduce emissions.
Second and Third: Full length windows to maximise views. Shading will be needed as it is on the north side. (Shading timber slat elements on roof)
