Initial Design Approach

As my design developed, I have proceed with Sketchup to realized my initial thoughts and design impulses to get a better idea of the spatial space between 'petals' and understanding the relation of connectivity of all routes and buildings. Not only does it give me a better understanding of the structure and shape of my design, it becomes a foundation in developing the idea towards the final product. As shown, the idea is all inspired by local botany and local vernacular structure. I am using Rafflesia, the worlds biggest flower as my analogy, influencing the circulation and space. These 2 buildings are similar in spatial space and circulation, as the shape is the only thing that differentiate both design, keeping in mind that more design development is needed.
The design above shows 5 exterior 'petals' with 1 central core which would be the central stage for performance. Out of the 5 exterior 'petals', there would be 4 practice halls and 1 restaurant, which is directly linked towards the central stage to create a close relation, giving tourist the opportunity to eat whilst enjoying the cultural dances. There would be a central circulation between the central core and 5 petals which would be a garden with pathways which is planted with agricultural local plants as an alternative decorative ornament, instead of the conventional flowers. The main thing that needs to be taken into account is the ground quality which is not suitable for most plants.
