The Triangle Collective

We, The Triangle Collective, is a group of 3 students studying Architecture at the University of Auckland who are participating in the annual Auckland Architecture Weekend 2010 competition- SKYRISE city.

The event will be held on 16th October 2010 in Sheds 1+2 on 135 Halsey Street, Auckland CBD.

The competition brief is to design a 8m tall skyrise with a 2m x 2m square footprint at the bottom.

Our Design 4 group brief is Recasting, where we have to recast an everyday material and put it into an environment that we will not normally associate the material to.

The blog is to note down important sessions, crits and experiments throughout our design process from the beginning to the night of the event.

Hope you enjoy the project as much as we do.

Thanks for your support,
Cameron, Kassidy and Kelvin @ The Triangle Collective

28.09.2010 Tamaki Session

After several days, we finally finished our rough 1:1 tubic form of our structure.

This size of section was originally planned to be placed in the middle, but we realised it will be tough to have a changing module of different triangular shapes. Thus we will be keeping it simple to one isoceles triangle module- 2m base width, 1m height.
