Presentation Reflection
Comments made
Could have shown the Hive in a location closer to the railway.
Response: The Hive would utilise the railway between cities and a truck would be used within smaller regions to take the structure to a green space.
- Alternative arrangement of pods for different areas around Australia.
- Response: I had considered this and there is definatley potential for the pods to be rearranged because of the flexibility a module system offers.
- Solar Power Panels.
- Response: I had discussed the option of solar power panels being integrated into the screen as a type of cladding.
- Disability Access.
- I had considered disability access and thought because the structure is inteded to be easily dismantled, distributed and reassembled in new locations, that it would make it too difficult to incorporate a lift. However, on reflection I agree that it would be essential to incorporate the lift to avoid discrimination and truely make it an inclusive event.
