The Road and The Clearing - Clan 2
The Carpenter is a role within a sustainable community located on Carsington Water designed by seven students studying Architecture at the University of Nottingham. The Carpenter's role guards and harvests the natural resource of the forest, honing the produce offered into useful products for the rest of the community. He provides a bridge between the forest and the community with a more public interaction occuring in the form of teaching workshops in addition to the items he crafts.
These are final images of the second draft of the model without the surrounding trees (the line of the trees starts roughly level with the front face of the "tower". The idea of the harvesting to collation process being gradual with the space gradually gathering the Carpenter from the forest remains however now the spaces for collection are defined by the structure. As the process progresses the volumes become purer and more defined as a reflection of the process itself. This volume is supported by an external frame as covered in the previous post.
