Final model

Emergency Lighting

Emergency lighting to alert the building is a safe zone in a natural disaster

I also gave the design a name as "The Beacon" this was influenced by this lighting idea

Further development

Design with materials




I Have incorporated a solar panel system on the exterior of the building to capture solar energy and power the building.

Solar panels can rotate to reach the optimum angle to harness the solar energy

Materials - Timber

Some of the main materials I want to use in my design

-Steel
-Reinforced concrete
-timber
-grass roof
-double glazed glass

The timber I have chosen to use is Silver beech as it had good durability and has a nice aesthetic quality when it weathers over time.
