-big statement (like circular atrium) <br />-Kakegawa space is a nice model <br />-Smaller urban space is good <br />-Drum is too STATIC <br />Really like the idea of a water element inside, the gardens, the rainwater use. <br />Love the hanging gardens! <br />You need to have visitor parking on site.Folks coming to the building shouldn’t <br />have to cross a street. We don’t have to provide employee parking. <br />Open, lots of light, homey. <br />Regarding Building Form: <br />1. For diagrams 1B and 2A, these put too much emphasis on circulation, making <br />major iconic statement (the drum) about what is essentially a service function. <br />2. For diagram 3B this concept put iconic energy on Council Chamber - <br />appropriate emphasis. Circulation entry and central public space, as in <br />Kakegawa Town Hall and Vancouver Provincial Courts, work well without undue <br />emphasis on form. <br />Please keep in mind the needs for cost effectiveness and shelter from rain. <br />Etched glass in windows of atrium. Words and pictures. <br />Like the atrium. Don’t like the wigwam. <br />Eugene is fun, and so is the WIGWAM! Atrium that cleans the air! <br />1. Please read the book Cradle to cradle: Remaking the things we make. Please <br />do not make our City Hall defy gravity or nature. <br />2. Is Eugene industrial? Shouldn’t City Hall reflect the nature, history, climate? <br />3. Please do not build blank walls i.e. Hult Center. Concrete is cheap, is Eugene <br />cheap? Must we have a “modern” building imitating great buildings of the past? <br />4. Must City Hall be one continuous building? Can we have administrative <br />buildings separate on site and something “interesting” for council chambers? <br />5. Red brick looks great i.e. library, downtown fire station. <br />
