- Description
- This treatise design aims to cater for the state of veterinary service provision in South Africa. With a shift in management and the implementation of the Veterinary Community Service Act, the opportunity to explore the challenge of veterinary service delivery from an architectural point of view was seized. As the daughter of a Veterinarian and a student of architecture wondering on the architectural implications and challenges faced by veterinarians, I was presented with an opportunity to investigate, and develop an approach towards formulating a solution for efficient veterinary service delivery facilities across the country. Pondering this challenge led to testing the world model of standardisation, focussing on standardisation in architecture, and the general issue of universal responses as opposed to the development of a particular architectural response. What emerged formed the basis of the challenge for the treatise: To develop a solution based on the development of a prefabricated modularized system of component veterinary clinics for three different context types and in so doing grapple with the notion of manufactured spaces’ ability to create meaningful place.
