The ground floor focuses on the food making process where people learn and experience how food are grown, cooked and presented on pottery.
​
Now, the flow of the space is created where there will be a main street in the middle that goes from one end to another and the garden, kitchen and pottery spaces will be placed along it. This will create a much clearer understanding of the space when people enter it. Also, I decided to make the individual spaces more randomly placed as a way to make it feel more village like.

BASEMENT
The Restaurant
I maintained the programme of my underground space which is the restaurant space only but focused on rearranging the spaces to achieve a much better spatial arrangement.
​
One thing that changed in this layout is that there will be outdoor and indoor eating areas. Also, there will be a bar placed in between these spaces. Lastly, I decided to move the market stalls to the opposite side as a way to place all the services in one area.
THE WALK-THROUGH
1
Circulation and access
GROUND FLOOR
The circulation of the ground floor consist of one main route which connects all the spaces and several accesses for different users to enter the individual spaces. The main lift and stairs are located in the middle to allow equal distance between all the space. Also, the plant room is located behind to make it less visible to the public but still easily accessible for the maintenance workers. Lastly, there no need for additional toilet spaces as it is provided by the SPH.
BASEMENT
The circulation of the basement is split into half. One half of the space is for the workers and the other half are for the customers. This would allow a smooth movement in the space.
​
Also, the basement of the SPH could access into the restaurant directly as well. Besides, there is a direct access into the restaurant too from the subway. Hence, when people see through the tunnel, they can see the liveliness of restaurant immediately.
The garden spaces consist of a storage, planting workshop, allotments grounds, green house and vegetable stores. It is located at this area due to being most exposed to sunlight.
Location - Ground
Location - Ground
Besides learning about gardening, I decided to bring in a space for people to learn how to cook as well. The space is closely located to the garden area so that people could straight away get fresh fruits and vegetable from the green house or the allotments. Besides, when the workshop is not in use, the kitchen will be turned into a small bar and the space outside could be used to place tables and chairs for dining.
Location - Ground
This area consist of two main spaces. One is for the existing artist and the other one is for the pottery making. For the pottery making, the space consist 3 main areas which are the studio, storage and heating as well as the workshop space. Also, there is a space behind to allow them to sell their artwork. Besides, it consist a private garden of their own.

Indoor dining and bar
Location - Basement
The indoor dining is located right below the garden area. In this space, there are several dining options ranging from public to private. The interesting aspect about this space is that it has several lighting strategy to shine the space, which are the courtyards and side lighting.
7
Outdoor dining
Location - Basement
The reason for having the outdoor dining area is too expose the dining atmosphere to the public. Therefore when people pass by, they will be able to smell, see and hear the food going on. This would attract people into the building.
8
Kitchen stalls and services
Location - Basement
The kitchen stalls are located closely to the service areas so there will be easy access for the workers in the space. Besides, the placement of the piping works of the kitchen will also be much efficient since it is closer to the mechanical room.
5
The street with all the food processes
Location - Ground
The middle part of the space is where the different function meet and exist as one. Hence, when people enter the street they get to experience all the different food process in one go.
