PROJECT
LOOKOUT
OBSERVE
#Juxtaposition #Journey #Connection
Arrival time - 17:40 AEST
INTENT --
The Lookout is a unique outdoor experience which creates a journey leading to the view of the city. The view captures the physical impacts of Climate Change which is a reminder of our individual contributions to the negative environmental impacts, for example the impact on the ocean which is of near proximity to the site.
YOU ARE HERE
STRATEGY --
The city is composed with harmful materials which have negatively impacted the surrounding environment. The lookout serves as a poignant reminder about how everyday life can sully the environment. The journey undertaken by the individual towards the view is inspired by the ocean; the movement of the wave & how it distorts light.

OBJECT SCALE --
Bespoke joinery - a custom bench seat made from reclaimed timber. These bench seats are large and organically shaped to take inspiration from the organic forms found within nature and waves.
A custom made LED lighting feature, that will be fixed to the Caesin Protein organic structural beams. The white emitting light will create interesting patterns on the ramp, that takes inspiration from the movement of waves.
ARTIFICIAL LIGHTING STRATEGY --
Lighting in this space has a sense of impact which allows a unique experience. This includes accent lighting in the form of concealed lighting. The use of white LED lighting allows an intriguing experience within the space. LED is the suitable lighting solution as they use 75% less energy when compared to incandescent lighting. The energy used by all lighting within the site, will be generated through solar panels that will be fixed to the roof of the Boiler House.
