I like to define what it is I am actually employing as the basis of my design concepts. In this case the aim is to design a ‘Performance Space’.

Exploring the idea of a performance, this can encompass anything from music to theatre to street art, etc…

I want to avoid the traditional idea of a ‘performance’ such as a play, a concert or a display of art work. However, as a starting point I want to explore the idea of creating a place that has a sense of drama; a place that has a theatrical element to it that will draw people in.
