Inter Culture




As a group Culture further progressed our thoughts into Inter-culture. A brainstorming exercise of words and pictures and the first thing that came to our mind when we thought of inter culture, Brisbane, differences, celebration and people.
- layers - the workings underneath - working together - different populations - mixed use buildings - positive ways to mix - activity to activate the space - give opportunity to interact - understanding to learn from one another - sharing place - why people wear particular clothing? - protect nature - create interest on the site - put yourself in their shoes- make the area occupied over 24 HOURS - art centre? - art village
-people today (globlisation now). All placea are affected by other people

- built from a perspective - icons - represent a place (tradition/history/evolution)
- Public Use Site? Public engagement = success for the community

- Design for and with other cultures
-Each Brisbane suburb has a culture - try to connect these and beyond. Into the CBD and further Brisbane suburbs.
- Diversity. Is Brisbane already "multicultural"?
- Curiosity!

- Why do we celebrate lost? Anzac Day??
- Our class itself has a variety of cultures: Malaysia, Dubai, Norway. All living from different place. We adapt to different societies.
- This challenges our designs TODAY. To bring people together. Its important to consider more than just one culture.

- Look into what's missing on the site (Micro and Macro)
- 70/80s = people can live together/ making people equal/ strongly shaped/ spiritual.
- Having experience
- Strong recognition to acknowledge multiculturism.

- Recognise the problem in society??
- "What is right" We are what we are
- Can't satisfy everyone= sell our ideas!!
WE all have different backgrounds = WE all come to ONE PLACE. THE SAME PLACE. But are UNIQUELY on the inside and outside. We LEARN from EVERYONE to exist TOGETHER.

- QUALITY OF OPINION FROM THE WHOLE COMMUNITY= attracts the people.- We can remain on site= it could float? Suspend under the bridge?
- MAKE PEOPLE FEEL AT HOME>
- Travelling= becoming a stranger in countires
- Identity/ Some destroyed/ Design to WELCOME
- Bringing a strong sense of contect.
- Learning from one another/ integrating everyone's values and knowledge.
the variety in Brisbane.

- LOVE: TO not judge from just the outside - SPIRIT - Unique - Identity
- We shouldn't hide it/ We should highlight it.
- Building the community of the individual ( Visit to encourage one another).
- A promenade (Leisure Exercise Hugging Kissing)
- Noise Surrounding
- A market?? Maintaining it 24 hours a day

- A convention centre (different themes/ changing used and explored/ workshops for different cultures.
- ACT LOCALLY= Celebrate the culture/ Appreciate History
- Blanket the surroundings- People grew up here/ came from here/ toured here/ It's all about US (Past is Past... Celebrate NOW)
- A useable space creates a strong sense of Community.
- Enjoying Life together/ TO make a connection

- A neutral space brings something apart of you out.
Enjoy the Space/ Enjoy being there!!!
