Day 7 // Students presenting their work in preparation for exhibition at the town hall. Working together to give feedback on the work over the week and their proposed layouts

Day Five // One of the key precedents, a shot from the interior courtyard of the Manchester Town Hall. These details provide important reference for the work currently underway. The research and studies by the students are really beginning to take shape

Day Four // Model design preparations for laser cutting. The negative model will provide a base for casting in silicon as well as being a exploration in itself

Day Four // Detailed window study, paying careful attention to the scales and levels of the three dimensional forms

Day Four // Scaled laser cut studies of window details to understand the architectural language used within the Gothic Revival movement and the Manchester Town Hall

Day Two of the Gothic Revival studies

Students hard at work researching their chosen elements through literature, diagrams and theories

The wealth of knowledge within the books the students have gathered from the All Saints Library will provide essential insight into the theories and methods within Neo-Gothic Architecture

Manchester Town Hall - Some beautiful Neo-Gothic detailing around the halls, inspiration for the students studies into the style

Great first day with the students learning about the Town Hall and the Neo-Gothic style Alfred Waterhouse utilised throughout the building. The details are fascinating and will provide the 1st and 2nd years with a base to research from, with them focusing on their favourite elements!

Hi! My name is Liam and I'm currently in CPU, studying adaptive and reactive systems. I'm interested in modelling details from digital to physical, and am excited to work with you all in and out of the workshops during events to create some amazing work!
