PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The Garden City plan that Christchurch was founded on and the

recently proposed CCDU blueprint is similar in that they are based

on the idea of separation. The Garden C ity separated green from

city and the CCDU separates various urban activities into pre-

cincts. These planned distinct areas and hence planned separa-

tion, further separates, and discourages chance happening and

occurrence, the diverse and simultaneous events of an urban fab-

ric. In my strategy Im proposing to take one block and allow for

multiple programmes, allowing to prototype not only the individual

function but also shared spaces.

The Innovation Ofce fullls the work component of the city. Ofce

buildings encourage the return and growth of workers and busi-

nesses in the city. This building in particular fosters New Zealands

small and medium enterprises, particularly in IT, a high value in-

dustry.

Ofces often require large open plan spaces, allowing for exibili-

ty. These generic spaces produce non-space. Current technology

allows for greater exibility for workers, which means they are notbound to their desk nor even to the ofce, an employee has the

ability to work almost anywhere on portable devices.

In the IT workplace there is a need for collaboration at times and

privacy at others. Especially with present technology one can work

in any space, however the ofce still plays a vital role in fostering

and creating spaces for physical meeting and collaboration.With a

high priority for these collaborative shared spaces, these spaces

are dened and xed, facilitated by column spacing. The remain-

ing open plan can be used for exible ofces. The plan allows for

individual spaces when needed through the use of sweeping cur-

tains, and in some instances there are xed enclosed spaces that

can be used for private meetings or conversations.

The probability P(q) of a

direct beam penetrating

a plant canopy at a zenith

angle of q, assuming

azimuthal symmetry

K(q) is the fraction of foliage

projected in direction q

W(q) is the Total

nonrandomness correction

factor including needles

clumped on individual

conifer shoots and the

clumping of branches and

shoots on tree crowns

Lt is Total hemi-surface area

of all foliage per unit ground

surface area in canopy

Solar is a global resource, available worldwide. As well as at a macro scale, it can also be found to reach and

impact micro scales. Solar energys effect on canopies was investigated by taking measurements using hemispherical

photography. It is found there are 4 main factors that affect solar gain, . ge is the within-shoot clumping factor accounting

for the clumping of needles on shoots; dened as 1/2 total needle surface area to 1/2 total shoot envelope surface

area.
