Site-specific Design

Site specific design is when a design/event/performance of aesthetic value is designed specifically for, or influenced by a place.
The following are examples of site-specific design which I have found:

Wind Turbines
A wind turbine is a machine for converting the kinetic energy in wind into mechanical energy.

Wind farm siting can be highly controversial, particularly as the hilltop, often coastal sites preferred are often picturesque and environmentally sensitive. However, one 2MW wind turbine in a good location can cover the electricity consumption for 2000 households per year. Turbines also reduce CO2 emissions.
Personally, I find wind turbines aesetically pleasing and I would like to see renewable energy, such as the wind, being used more to create electricity.
I like how the turbines are positioned in most wind farms, one next to the other in a line. When the blades are spinning, there is a feeling of orgainised chaos! as shown in this picture.



Boots Library, Shakespeare St, Nottingham
The Boots Library opened on the City campus in 1998. The university's traditional library collections hold over 400,000 books, plus 2,500 current journals, as well as an extensive audio visual collection of videos and slides. I chose this building because it's site is directly linked to it's design. Being where it is, in between two roads that junction at the front of the library and the angle away from one another.
I like where the entrance is. It is situated at the junction of the two roads, which is not just functional and convieniant for visitors, but also aesthetically/architectually pleasing.
