3. The node design was based on the concept of telling a story, with that story being Pomona's History. For
that reason, the five nodes where placed in a series, going through history, from the past to the present,
and looking into the future.
Node Design
4. Node Design
The form of the node intallation was taken from a film reel, and manipulated to
create intruige in the structure by wrapping around the existing path to give an
invitaion to enter.
5. Node -> Project 2
Telling A Story
Learning
Reflection
Past -> Present -> Future
Interaction
6. Project 2 - Site Selection
Using a morphological analysis of
Pomona, the most appropriate site
was chosen (below), as it is situated
around other community buildings.

- Massage/Exercise -> New Outdoor Space
- Bowls Club Lawn -> Grandstand Type Structure
- Railway Museum -> Outdoor Display
Courtyard promotes
activity and social
interaction
12. Design Development

13. Design Development
Concrete paths guide
users to or from the
courtyard and surrounding
elements (Library, Exercise
space and Cinema).
A reference to the railway
lines and the art museum.
Split allows for 24/7 access
to public toilets
Circulation has been
pushed to the outskirts to
be visible from outside.
14. Design Development
Partitions allow for
ventilation, as well as
sight restrictions,
which gives a feeling
of privacy. (Also used
for public Toilets
Design)
Node form has been
used to reflect the
cinema aspect, and also
create a range of semi
enclosed spaces which
can be used for a range
of activities and utilised
by the yoga complex.
Concrete seating, set
at different heights will
be placed throughout
the design. The varying
height give a playful
feel, and advantages
for activities such as
markets.
