The Water Elements - Making it Work

As the water used for the walls will pass through open air and grass (using a suds drainage system) it will quickly become dirty and will need to be treated.

instantaneously when the space is required. The
operation of these spaces will be by the staff so that
there is no confusion in how they function.
The flexible elements of the space are designed in a
way that they can function as a whole or individually
or incorporating any number in between.
The elements are also identical so that they can be
put together in any order (each does not have a
specific place such as the corner or the centre) also
production of the elements will be made slightly
easier as each will just be an identical replication of
the last.

 

The design will be situated on the roof of parliament house
centred between the flagpole over looking the senate and the
house of representatives. The core of the structure (permanent
rooms) will be located under the flagpole.
The central part of the structure will be placed directly on top of
the current building with the outer meeting areas being
supported above the senate and house of representatives.
The structure will use the two large curved walls of parliament
as support as well as columns extending to the ground beneath
the meeting areas.
Storage for the water will be in the basement of parliament
house to keep the weight on the roof to a minimum. Filtration
systems and pumps will also be located in the basement
directly below the proposed structure with pipes running along
the outside of the curved walls of parliament house.
