Poetic Resolution

Poetic Resolution
Presence and Identity
The forms are intended to boldly interpose on either side of the flagpole on the existing Parliament House building and as a result it has been influenced by the flagpole on top of Parliament House.

Movement
It has been influenced by movement – the flow of the glass facade slope directs the eye up to the presence of the iconic flagpole.

Emphasis
To attract viewers/passersby, emphasis on the point of attraction is through the emergence of the fold-like structures.

Unity - Balance
The atmosphere of unity aims to be achieved through the symmetrical balance – placement of the centres at either sides of the flagpole.

Contrast
The play on contrast on the exterior against the rigid light-coloured stone (existing building fabric) and the interruption of the protruding dark metal (proposed extension building fabric).

Transparency
Utilising a transparent lightweight structure to create an openness to the external environment and visible to the spectators on the various levels of proposed centres. The transparent structures to also embody/signify the voice of the people.
