Design Strategy
"Cultural, Communication, Coalesce"
The center of communication and cultural is an adaptive re-use project by WBPS to create an environment where social and cultural interaction can flourish. The design aims to reactivate the site and provide a space for the community to socialise through learning, broadening young people's knowledge, horizons and sense of belonging to the community.

/ CENTER OF COMMUNICATION AND CULTURAL.
"Cultural, Communication, Coalesce"
As time progresses and society evolves, an individual can use many advanced and diverse media to engage in some form of communication with his/her friends, family or significant others. Society as a whole has become insensitive to each other's social consciousness and has become a mental slave to other diluted forms of communication.
There is a lack of interaction and communication between people in a unified reality.
The center of communication and cultural is an adaptive re-use project by WBPS to create an environment where social and cultural interaction can flourish. The design aims to reactivate the site and provide a space for the community to socialise through learning, broadening young people's knowledge, horizons and sense of belonging to the community

/ DESIGN PROCESS.

01

CARVE
According to the information form the articles, of the five influencing factors underlying adaptive reuse projects, the principle of respect for conservation in terms of design applies to WBPS as it relates to the conversion or reuse of heritage buildings. The history and value of WBPS as a heritage building in its own right provides a wealth of inspiration and creativity. According to the article " without constraints design cannot happen" Constraints provide an important structure for the redesign of the building, while respect for the history and culture of the building itself is also essential. The design of the WBPSshould therefore take into account its own identity, and its uniqueness. And as a constraint, respect for the history and culture of the building itself, and consideration of sustainability in the future after design

INTERLOCK
Public space should be used as a place for art that connects communities, inspires public interaction, and communicates. Cultural and learning spaces such as museums and libraries are no longer made for the presentation of works, but for the creation of art. The most meaningful moment of a work of art is not when it is completed, but when the public participates and interacts with it. Spaces that are flexible, functionally unclear, useful or useless, can inspire artists and the public to create for a specific context and site, allowing artworks, the public and the space to become one.
03

OVERLAP
The rapid urbanization brings us not only material civilization heritage, but also a huge amount of wastes. The propensity of love the new and loathe the old causes many old buildings being abandoned.
The White Bay Power Station is devastated and ruined, but its rough, plain and real industrial building features happen to coincide with theattitude of cultural and art. The concept of the design derives fromthe above, it respects the simplicity and reality of industrial buildings, aiming at the future of contemporary cultural and art space
