“The Derwent Valley Perfumery”
It is believed that everything that is created in pairs, Life/ Death, Day/ Night, Sun/
Moon are just a few to name.These contrasting qualities can also be seen in
the form of architecture. I am interested in exploring the relationship between
‘organic’ and ‘technology’.
The Derwent Valley Mills is a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site. The
Derwent Valley is known for introducing the industrial revolution in the 18th
century. The site accommodated new methods and technology for various
different industries.There was a time when industry and making played a key
role in individual lives.The situation appears to be different in this day and age as
we are highly dependant on a technical and globalized world.
This project seeks to bring a rich industry back into the Valley to reinstate the
industrial revolution on the outskirts of the Buffer Zone.The scheme will look
at providing an opportunity for the local community and feel proud of their
heritage. I intend to explore the relationship between technology and nature
and how can architecture play a harmonious role between human habitation
and the natural world.
Perfumery is a beautiful art appreciated throughout time - backdated as far as
the Ancient Egyptian era.It is a highly valuable customisable skill.My project looks
at proposing a perfumery on the Stevensons Old Dye Works. site is an ideal
location.The vision is so forth - a vast variety of plants and flowers are grown
and cultivated on site (including climate restricted species in the greenhouse).
Production is not limited to just mass but individual units too.Clientele can select
and gather the plants of the scents that appeal and take them to the factory
to be distilled into essential oils, allowing an almost alchemist experience.The
gardens,woodlands and cafe will become a local loved attraction.The perfumery
will hopefully enhance the Derwent Valley community in many ways,especially
for its retired population, and become an asset.To tie in the bronze piece with
my project I explored the idea of making customised seed containers for the
plant seeds to be stored in the seed bank.

“Neutral Territory”
Thames EdgeTransitions
“NeutralTerritory”
Working on an EdgeThe artist Roni Horn writes that;
‘When I look at water I’m entering into an event of relation. Rather than an object, water becomes a form — of consciousness, or time, of
physicality, of the human condition, of anything I desire to project on it, of anything I want it to be .This water exists in monolithic, indivisible
continuity with all other waters. No water is separate from any other water. In the River Thames, in an Arctic iceberg, in your drinking glass,
in that drop of rain, on that frosty window pane, in your eyes, in every other microscopic part of you (and me), all waters converge. Invisible
continuity is intrinsic to water (fig. 2).This continuity exceeds us even while being the biggest part of us. It’s this continuity that makes our effect
on water an effect on us.That is to say: “I am theThames!” or “TheThames is me!”’This essence is embodied in our study of the RiverThames.
This year our unit has been focusing and making for the edge of the Thames and its immediate hinterland, focusing on the stretch of
river between Putney Bridge downstream to Westminster Bridge.Through the project we each developed an understanding of the
river as a physical entity - its tidal range, its embankment, its crossings and the way it has been marginalized as a mode of transport and
infrastructure.As well as the wildlife and the human activity that occurs on, within and beside it, in boats and other forms of riverside/
watery construction including bridges, wharves and warehouses.The river itself as a vessel.
The Thames is synonymous with London and continues to be of much more than emblematic significance. Each of us looked at the
historical time frame that reaches back to the medieval, before the river was the city’s major thoroughfare and hub of international
trade and commerce. In the last century the docks have been moved far away into theThames estuary and the wharves and quayside
have vanished in all but name.The riverside here is undergoing radical transformation.The south bank especially has been occupied/
privatised by new residential development and consider its impact on the land adjacent.We would like you to make comparison with
the residential riverside at Chelsea, and the houseboat enclaves at Chelsea Reach and Putney Wharf.
The river continues to host pockets of pleasure- from Ranelagh and Vauxhall Gardens to Craven Cottage home of Fulham Football
Club, the Hurlingham Club, Battersea and Putney Parks. It contained sites of infrastructure including Battersea and Fulham Power
Stations and theThames Water Ring main involving major hydraulic engineering.
This part of the riverside houses many of the country’s great political, religious, legal and cultural institutions.The Palace ofWestminster
(Houses of Parliament) is located on the north side of Westminster Bridge together with ScotlandYard. Lambeth Palace, the London
residence of the Archbishop-of Canterbury is on the south side adjacent to Lambeth Bridge.The MI5 building just upstream adjacent
to Vauxhall Bridge with Tate Britain opposite on the north bank.There is talk of a new embassy quarter in Battersea, following the
relocation of the American Embassy to Nine Elms. We understand the Grosvenor Estate are currently exploring the potential to
relocate embassies from Belgravia to free up their property for more lucrative residential use.Individually,we all carried out studies that
eventually led us to our thesis projects that range from different sites and typologies that is on or around the river that re connects
the public realm to the river.

“Neutral Territory”
Mapping the Arts and Culture around Battersea Park
Group Model Photographs
Gaining an international Identity through cultural exchange on a Neutral Territory
London is one of the world’s most diverse cities, it is no longer the city that used to exist in the 19th century.The 2011 census found that 37%
of the city’s residents were born outside the UK, up from 27% a decade earlier.Today, families from every UN-recognised country – 196 in total,
from Albania to Zimbabwe are making a life and a home in Britain’s capital.
Losing Identity
It ‘s hard to define culture: at the same time, there are many ways to understand it.We tend to follow the cultures that we are surrounded by or
even begin to incorporate and adapt to others. My world is very much being part of a British (western) culture but one that has been tempered
with Indian (eastern) culture and its strong traditions, infused over the three generations that my family have lived in this country.We can’t dismiss
that in the UK people live in an environment that is affected by this fusion but it has gradually eroded and blurred the traditional differences that
existed in these very different cultures.The story of cultural diversity is both bewildering complex and endless fascinating. Notwithstanding the
numerous publications about this, there is still scope for a further and focussed study.As a starting point of my thesis project, I began to look at
the development of culture along the river and its expansion into the threads of the city environment.The thesis acknowledges the importance
of the international context and community, and its relevance today. Endless encounters surround us on a daily basis; we hear people communi-
cating in foreign languages,eating different foods, people wearing clothes from different parts of the world. All these moments and events are all
accepted.The “diaspora” refers literally to a large community who left their hometown and cities and had marked a new identity for themselves,
and have retained a connection to their homeland.This proposal looks at exploring a model that understands the ways in which modern archi-
tecture in London has been altered or reflected the work in which it was rooted.
Food and Architecture - The ‘Banqueting’ Hall
Food is an incapable part of our everyday lives. It is occupied by both space and time.The built environment is employed around the production,
distribution, storage, preparation, serving, eating and disposal. In the city we are sometimes rushed, sometimes we ‘grab a bite to eat’ at our desk,
car park,train journey or on a park bench.Alternatively,food is sometimes involved in a ceremony or ritual that requires planning and preparation.
My thesis looks to explore and invent a ‘new’ service around cultural relationships, international relations, diplomacy and food.This can be done
as an isolated act, or involved around a group of people generating feelings of community and intimacy.The form of inventing a set of rules and
boundaries around food has been the starting point. It includes a developed investigation of the developmental opportunities available through
interaction with the food realm on a ‘neutral territory’ on water, as no one can own water.
The banqueting space located on the river works around an international calendar.The dates we often see in our diaries notifying us about
various republic holidays around the world are the days that are celebrated in the building.
Herb Allotment Gardens
Herbs and spices give our meals that special something and thus enrich our lives. Herbs from far-off lands have always been among the world’s
most valuable goods.Although herbs and spices are found in every kitchen today, they still offer plenty of scope for new, attractive taste creations
and lots of potential for innovations in the food and beverage industry.There are 196 20 m by 20 m ‘Herb Allotment Gardens’ that are placed
all over the existing infrastructure on Battersea Park in the form of the ‘Tartan Grid’ represents the equality of space and demolishes the system
of hierarchy.The 20m by the 20m square is divided up to accommodated 196 squares that represent each nation.The 0.75mx0.75m square
becomes a herb allotment for a particular country on a neutral ground.The gardens have timber fences around that define the boundary be-

Park witnesses thousands of visitors all year round, the intention of the scheme is to bring an ‘international’ community to the site placed around
a ‘proposed grid’ that has been placed on the existing and iconic fabric of Battersea Park.

Developing a Design Strategy around a Grid
The initial design strategy looks at housing all “196” nations
on a“neutral territory”located in Battersea Park.The next set
of diagrammatic drawings show how Battersea Park has been
transformed in a grid to accomadate 50x50m squared
housing one nation in each square.The purpose of this study
was to treat each nation as equal without a hierarchy.

  • 2. High Ground “The Derwent Valley Perfumery” It is believed that everything that is created in pairs, Life/ Death, Day/ Night, Sun/ Moon are just a few to name.These contrasting qualities can also be seen in the form of architecture. I am interested in exploring the relationship between ‘organic’ and ‘technology’. The Derwent Valley Mills is a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Derwent Valley is known for introducing the industrial revolution in the 18th century. The site accommodated new methods and technology for various different industries.There was a time when industry and making played a key role in individual lives.The situation appears to be different in this day and age as we are highly dependant on a technical and globalized world. This project seeks to bring a rich industry back into the Valley to reinstate the industrial revolution on the outskirts of the Buffer Zone.The scheme will look at providing an opportunity for the local community and feel proud of their heritage. I intend to explore the relationship between technology and nature and how can architecture play a harmonious role between human habitation and the natural world. Perfumery is a beautiful art appreciated throughout time - backdated as far as the Ancient Egyptian era.It is a highly valuable customisable skill.My project looks at proposing a perfumery on the Stevensons Old Dye Works. site is an ideal location.The vision is so forth - a vast variety of plants and flowers are grown and cultivated on site (including climate restricted species in the greenhouse). Production is not limited to just mass but individual units too.Clientele can select and gather the plants of the scents that appeal and take them to the factory to be distilled into essential oils, allowing an almost alchemist experience.The gardens,woodlands and cafe will become a local loved attraction.The perfumery will hopefully enhance the Derwent Valley community in many ways,especially for its retired population, and become an asset.To tie in the bronze piece with my project I explored the idea of making customised seed containers for the plant seeds to be stored in the seed bank.

Rather than an object, water becomes a form — of consciousness, or time, of physicality, of the human condition, of anything I desire to project on it, of anything I want it to be .This water exists in monolithic, indivisible continuity with all other waters. No water is separate from any other water. In the River Thames, in an Arctic iceberg, in your drinking glass, in that drop of rain, on that frosty window pane, in your eyes, in every other microscopic part of you (and me), all waters converge. Invisible continuity is intrinsic to water (fig. 2).This continuity exceeds us even while being the biggest part of us. It’s this continuity that makes our effect on water an effect on us.That is to say: “I am theThames!” or “TheThames is me!”’This essence is embodied in our study of the RiverThames. This year our unit has been focusing and making for the edge of the Thames and its immediate hinterland, focusing on the stretch of river between Putney Bridge downstream to Westminster Bridge.Through the project we each developed an understanding of the river as a physical entity - its tidal range, its embankment, its crossings and the way it has been marginalized as a mode of transport and infrastructure.As well as the wildlife and the human activity that occurs on, within and beside it, in boats and other forms of riverside/ watery construction including bridges, wharves and warehouses.The river itself as a vessel. The Thames is synonymous with London and continues to be of much more than emblematic significance. Each of us looked at the historical time frame that reaches back to the medieval, before the river was the city’s major thoroughfare and hub of international trade and commerce. In the last century the docks have been moved far away into theThames estuary and the wharves and quayside have vanished in all but name.The riverside here is undergoing radical transformation.The south bank especially has been occupied/ privatised by new residential development and consider its impact on the land adjacent.We would like you to make comparison with the residential riverside at Chelsea, and the houseboat enclaves at Chelsea Reach and Putney Wharf. The river continues to host pockets of pleasure- from Ranelagh and Vauxhall Gardens to Craven Cottage home of Fulham Football Club, the Hurlingham Club, Battersea and Putney Parks. It contained sites of infrastructure including Battersea and Fulham Power Stations and theThames Water Ring main involving major hydraulic engineering. This part of the riverside houses many of the country’s great political, religious, legal and cultural institutions.The Palace ofWestminster (Houses of Parliament) is located on the north side of Westminster Bridge together with ScotlandYard. Lambeth Palace, the London residence of the Archbishop-of Canterbury is on the south side adjacent to Lambeth Bridge.The MI5 building just upstream adjacent to Vauxhall Bridge with Tate Britain opposite on the north bank.There is talk of a new embassy quarter in Battersea, following the relocation of the American Embassy to Nine Elms. We understand the Grosvenor Estate are currently exploring the potential to relocate embassies from Belgravia to free up their property for more lucrative residential use.Individually,we all carried out studies that eventually led us to our thesis projects that range from different sites and typologies that is on or around the river that re connects the public realm to the river.

  • 15. Gaining an international Identity through cultural exchange on a Neutral Territory London is one of the world’s most diverse cities, it is no longer the city that used to exist in the 19th century.The 2011 census found that 37% of the city’s residents were born outside the UK, up from 27% a decade earlier.Today, families from every UN-recognised country – 196 in total, from Albania to Zimbabwe are making a life and a home in Britain’s capital. Losing Identity It ‘s hard to define culture: at the same time, there are many ways to understand it.We tend to follow the cultures that we are surrounded by or even begin to incorporate and adapt to others. My world is very much being part of a British (western) culture but one that has been tempered with Indian (eastern) culture and its strong traditions, infused over the three generations that my family have lived in this country.We can’t dismiss that in the UK people live in an environment that is affected by this fusion but it has gradually eroded and blurred the traditional differences that existed in these very different cultures.The story of cultural diversity is both bewildering complex and endless fascinating. Notwithstanding the numerous publications about this, there is still scope for a further and focussed study.As a starting point of my thesis project, I began to look at the development of culture along the river and its expansion into the threads of the city environment.The thesis acknowledges the importance of the international context and community, and its relevance today. Endless encounters surround us on a daily basis; we hear people communi- cating in foreign languages,eating different foods, people wearing clothes from different parts of the world. All these moments and events are all accepted.The “diaspora” refers literally to a large community who left their hometown and cities and had marked a new identity for themselves, and have retained a connection to their homeland.This proposal looks at exploring a model that understands the ways in which modern archi- tecture in London has been altered or reflected the work in which it was rooted. Food and Architecture - The ‘Banqueting’ Hall Food is an incapable part of our everyday lives. It is occupied by both space and time.The built environment is employed around the production, distribution, storage, preparation, serving, eating and disposal. In the city we are sometimes rushed, sometimes we ‘grab a bite to eat’ at our desk, car park,train journey or on a park bench.Alternatively,food is sometimes involved in a ceremony or ritual that requires planning and preparation. My thesis looks to explore and invent a ‘new’ service around cultural relationships, international relations, diplomacy and food.This can be done as an isolated act, or involved around a group of people generating feelings of community and intimacy.The form of inventing a set of rules and boundaries around food has been the starting point. It includes a developed investigation of the developmental opportunities available through interaction with the food realm on a ‘neutral territory’ on water, as no one can own water. The banqueting space located on the river works around an international calendar.The dates we often see in our diaries notifying us about various republic holidays around the world are the days that are celebrated in the building. Herb Allotment Gardens Herbs and spices give our meals that special something and thus enrich our lives. Herbs from far-off lands have always been among the world’s most valuable goods.Although herbs and spices are found in every kitchen today, they still offer plenty of scope for new, attractive taste creations and lots of potential for innovations in the food and beverage industry.There are 196 20 m by 20 m ‘Herb Allotment Gardens’ that are placed all over the existing infrastructure on Battersea Park in the form of the ‘Tartan Grid’ represents the equality of space and demolishes the system of hierarchy.The 20m by the 20m square is divided up to accommodated 196 squares that represent each nation.The 0.75mx0.75m square becomes a herb allotment for a particular country on a neutral ground.The gardens have timber fences around that define the boundary be- tween the park and the neutral territory.The purpose of these gardens is to represent London’s diversity through food and culture. Battersea Park witnesses thousands of visitors all year round, the intention of the scheme is to bring an ‘international’ community to the site placed around a ‘proposed grid’ that has been placed on the existing and iconic fabric of Battersea Park.
