Week 7 - Further Development of Architectural Opportunities

Sustainable Energies, Water and Pollution Issue:
Woodfordia is a sunny, natural and open place which is suitable for the use of solar energy, wind energy and biomass. Recycling water system should be used and the recycled water can be used for watering plants in the site. However, to protect Woodfordia's natural environment, the better way is using sustainable and natural materials to construct buildings and use eco friendly facilities in the site. They may need to limit the number of visitors in necessity (during the busy times).


Culture Issue:
How to make different facilities and services to suit people’s different cultural backgrounds? It is another issue which needs to be worked out. In the future, there may be digital services to provide explanations to international visitors. The design and service cannot follow one cultural background, and should respect every culture and religion.

Transport Issue:
I think there should be public transport from city to Woodfordia which can similar to Dream world, Sea world and Movie World public transport lines. People can take train and change to the bus to the destination. It would be a good idea for Woodfordia's transport as well. Moreover, people can use sustainable "segway" for the big site visit.

Climate Issue:
More trees and shelter can be planted and built in Woodfordia. The shelter is not only for people, but also for plants which are vulnerable in the high temperature. There can even be an indoor botanic garden to protect famous and precious plants and flowers. It also can give different experience for visitors.

Summary:
Through the project 1 analysis, sustainable energies, water, pollution, culture, transport, and climate issues which I discussed. Therefore, it give me a clear requirements for future Woodfordia education centre. Woodfordia will be a sustainable education centre and workshop which is natural and open place for indoor and outdoor education in 2030. All the design, facilities and systems are sustainable and following the eco-system in Woodfordia. Such as, greenhouse farming for local farming (marketing) and visitors' education. Local farming "food shop" allows people to pick their own food in the farming garden. Students can learning the planting knowledge in planting workshop. Wind, solar and biomasses energies will use to support the operate of buildings and facilities in Woodfordia. Students and families are the main visitors in future. Due to people will rely on technology for daily life in the future. People would like to communication with each other digitally and people may lose the survival skill without technology in future. Woodfordia provides people opportunities to communicate face to face and help each other during the camping or outdoor activities. It also is a place which combines the natural environment and sustainable technology.
 
  
 
1. Public transport to Woodfordia (tran, bus and school bus, it only allows few private cars to driver to the site)



2. Future Woodfordia will combine nature environment (forest nature environment) with sustainable technology.





3. Different facilities (outside activities, field trip, camping area, workshops and local farming areas (fresh food shop - picking vegetables and fruit), outdoor and indoor class ). Woodford Folk Festival will hold in Dec every year.
