Prototype Design 1


My first design idea was a fitness centre. this fufills the coursework brief because the athletes coming from different countries will be able to use the centre to train in preperation for the 2012 olympics. after this time the centre could be used for public use ie, schools, individuals, organisations could make use of the facilites which in my final project will include the gym centre as well as an outdoor pool, race track, rugby and soccer pitches and tennis courts. it is enviornmentally sustainable because after the athletes are finished with it, public membership fees will pay for its build and upkeep. it will have many enviornmentally friendly features such as solar panels and water reseviour tanks which will keep the cost of running the centre down. local culture will be promoted through the training ground i will include for Derry City FC. the transportation links will be modern with bus, monorail and tram stops in the area.
