I have considered a couple of places to explore their function which is what this exercise is about. I will consider the following:
- Outdoor dining area of local cafe
- Telephone box
Having made my short list, I need to consider what the function of each area is. The cafe/dining area is a small area which allows customers to enjoy their meals in a secluded area in the outside which is a walled garden designed to re-create a 17th century planting scheme. The cafe is set with a low running river on one side behind a stone wall and an enclosed mill wheel on the other which gives a constant sound of running, swishing water. This can be very soothing in the middle of a stressful day. The space works because it is set down from the main walkway so is secluded which allows the space to catch the sun in the middle of the day.
2. A telephone box, be it an old fashioned red box or an ultra modern plastic cube, allows the public to contact other people when they are away from their home phone.
