Experiment Two: Final Submission

Image
HERO & DETAIL SHOTS Render Image 1: Wide Span Hero Shot Render Image 2: Lobby of Central Hub Render Image 3: Detail Shot of Roof Design The design depicts a personal concept of a school of Engineering built in UNSW. It follows the theory that one inherently possesses a desire of upward movement, an ideal exhibited in nature through a plants desire for sunlight. In order to depict upward movement, the bridges meet at a central elevated hub which further expands upward. Additionally, the design of the central hub is inspired from the earlier Engineering article, resembling a plant’s bulb and thus synthesising nature with technology.

Experiment Two: Plan and Progress Model

Image
PLAN INSPIRATION The plan I have chosen from the document is Piranesi's circular building. From this, I adapted it into the ground floor plan on my building, as well as modifying the size to fit the context. ADAPTATION The adapted plan kept the symmetry shown in the original but was changed to accommodate three passages as opposed to four. MODEL PROGRESS

CIRCULATION CROSS MOVEMENT THEORY ARTICLE:  https://www.theverge.com/2019/4/3/18292684/plant-nanobionics-chemical-engineering-light-plant REFERENCE:  Chen, Angela. 2019. "Glowing, Toxin-Detecting Plants Are The Green Engineering Of The Future".  The Verge . https://www.theverge.com/2019/4/3/18292684/plant-nanobionics-chemical-engineering-light-plant. The chosen article detailed innovations in Engineering through revisiting the natural function of plants and adapting them into technology. CHOSEN WORDS:  innovations  starting point trajectory SENTENCE: Movement, alike technological innovations have a pattern of upward trajectory, whilst also remaining faithful to the starting point.

Week Five: Hero and Detail Shot

Image
Hero and Detail Shots Hero Shot Detail Shot The above Hero shot shows the main facade of the building, and highlights the many exterior forms which accentuate the comforting atmosphere. The perspective shot draws large attention to the use of curves which aim to evoke similarities to the relaxed posture of chairs and the softness of blankets. Along with these curves, the pastel colour scheme inspired by BernabeiFreeman's works add to the cosiness. The Detail shot also highlights the recurring curved features but focuses on the interior space. The notion of curves is continued in the ceiling of the top floor where it maintains a smooth and flowing aesthetic. Another significant aspect shown is the transparency of the room, allowing the entrance of natural light into the workplace, and thus further connecting the brand's work with nature.
