Agora : transition through information to memory

Abstract

This project investigates Interior Architecture as the design of space within established physical parameters. The concept of an Agora as a public meeting space generating memory forms the design platform from which the investigation happens. After 100 years, the University of Pretoria is still relatively young compared to other similar institutions worldwide, and the current diversity of users further add to the loss of corporate identity that is shared between these users. The Agora creates a generator of information by hosting interaction between previously separated groups, exposing information to a majority of users on the Campus.
