...working out how to clean the space!





The 'Coal Tea Room' Concept

Coal is still considered the theme. The industrial production of coal for energy production in the 20 century. Coal boosted the economy. Coal as fuel and transport large amounts of raw materials and life. Oil instead of coal, economic growth and global environmental change. Newcastle potluck supplies were used in live, burn (a symbol of coal) which was on display. Which hung a small, something big exhibition on the wall or floor. Recalls the 20 century, and energy production, the environment and civilization, humans and nature, space is proposed for the tea room and think about contemporary issues.

We are thinking about two possible plans:

• 1st plan

I tried to make a mobile, goods in a small single wall is poor. When you provision a black ceiling and floor space, it may be a nice space.

• 2nd plan

Mobile tearoom concatenated with corrugated plastic hinge for a cure. Tea house with a garden in the middle of the spiral. Exhibit a salvage yard in the grass.
