I'm planning to bridge the Squarehouse to the Blockhouse just so it can be more accessible from the main walkway and which can also serve as a visible marker from Anzac Parade. The problem now with the Square House is that not everyone can see it, and so that's why it's difficult to access and understand. With this connection, hopefully the Squarehouse can be a more recognisable building on site.
A more subtle moving element. The slats of the Surry Hills library move accordingly to the seasonal changes, allow light to pass through in different situations. These slats are a sustainable and aesthetic function to the facade of the building.

I was thinking of extendable rooms in the bridge. Think matchboxes, or those dining tables that are extendable - but on a larger scale, extendable rooms. Where more sunlight is needed. Think about the spaces around it also, what can this create?? Workshop areas? Recreational hideouts?
