36 CUSTOM TEXTURES

3 SETS OF DEVELOPED AXONAMETRIC SKETCHES

ELECTROLIQUID AGGREGATION

Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge: I want you to share my excitement at the discoveries, past and present. it is those who know little, that have revolutionized the way we think... those who know much so positively assert that this or that problem will never be solved by science. Our image of the universe today is full of strange sounding ideas, and remarkable truths.

DRAFT SKETCHUP MODEL

FOR THIS DRAFT I DECIDED TO USE TWO OF MY SKETCHES TO CREATE ONE SPACE. I ALSO DEMONSTRATED HOW THE USE OF DIFFERENT MATERIALS (IN THIS CASE GLASS) CHANGE EACH OF THE AXONAMETRIC MODELS INTO QUIET USABLE SPACES

AXONOMETRIC SKETCHUP MODELS

THIS IS A SKETCHUP MODEL OF AXONAMETRIX SKETCHES 2A AND 2B.

STAIR TO PATRICIA PICCININI'S GALLERY



This animation shows the entrance to the gallery, leading to Patricia Piccinini's swell installation at the bottom of the feature stair case. This stair case which leads to the gallery represents 'motion' by the way it gently spirals upward, almost like a whirlpool, made even more evident by the use of floating stairs and glass support.

I uploaded the files to youtube, however they did not work correctly. in any case, here is the link to the file found on youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m10-JC-jPZ4

SECTION ANIMATION



This animation shows the building in its entirety above and below ground. It shows the unique architecture of the lower studio space created for Ricky Swallow, representing 'death'. The decision to use concrete as the most predominant materials was due to the cold, lifeless effect it portrays. This section also shows the feature stairwell leading up to the datum from this studio. It is very imbalanced and asymmetrical, with the same lifeless elements as the studio itself. There are multiple viewing areas located at the datum to tie the too themes together. The shape and material of the glass panels represents motion, and the death is represented by the drowning sensation that would be experienced below.

PERSPECTIVE ANIMATION


This animation shows the building in its entirety above the datum. On the top level, Patricia Piccinini's studio is located. It is a sheltered, but open aired studio. I have added my own custom texture to the windows, which represents luminous. located inside her studio is a large water feature; this along with the curved roof helps represent the theme of 'motion'.
