ARCH 1101 - EXP 3



EXP 3

THE MASHUP OF THREE NEWS ARTICLES


All three women possess their own distinctive powers. Miranda Kerr for instance has the power and ability to attract attention through her dazzling visual features via the media. Model agent Ursula Hufnagl described Kerr as "the perfect endorsement", citing her ability to "truly sell a product. Helen Keller is another woman who truly signifies will power, making known sky is the limit. Even though she blind and death she obtains great power in the sense of self. It is for us to pray not for tasks equal to our powers, but for powers equal to our tasks, to go forward with a great desire forever beating at the door of our hearts as we travel toward our distant goal. The power of effecting changes for the better is within ourselves, not in the favorableness of circumstances. Angela Merkel, one of the longest serving leaders among Europe’s major powers. The first female chancellor of Germany quotes “Never before in my political life have I been taken so seriously as woman,”. Merkel has the power to influence people, lead people.

 REAL TIME IMAGE CAPTURES SHOWING 2 DRAFT CRYSIS WARS ENVIRONMENTS

 REAL TIME IMAGE CAPTURES OF THE DEVELOPED CRYSIS WARS ENVIRONMENT
(FINAL PRODUCT)

This structure was intended for two specific clients, Miranda Kerr and Helen Keller. This is a bridge that connects Miranda's working space with Helen Kellers working space or office. The structure consist of two offices, two elevators, a bridge and a meeting space in between consisted with a table. This building has been produced in a distinct unique way to reinforce and challenge the understanding of power. Each part of the structure has been moulded and designed for a reason.  

Miranda Kerr and Helen Keller are both "powerful" individuals. In which I mean they possess their own person traits and features. Although quite different from each other, they share the same attributes of being Powerful women in their own way. Miranda has astounding visual features which can be of significant help in selling and advertising products and endorsements. Helen Keller is a deaf-blind person who was first to earn a University degree. She is a truly a marvellous example of Will power and determination.



The structure consists of a total of 3 floors. Ground level, level 1 and level 2. The elevators on each side give access to all 3 levels. Starting from the top, the 2nd floor gives access to the bridge. This is where both clients can visit each and interact. At the same time the second floor and as well as the first floor is their office or working area. The ground floor is the open area where both clients are able to socialise and eat at the dining table.




The bridge has been designed to produce a sharp powerful concept, features which are evident in both Miranda and Helen. Many curved poles are situated all over the bridge to support it. This symbolises the clients strength and security, something they both share in common. The textures of the bridge continue to portray the same concept and message of a forceful sharp outline.

The dining table is placed on the ground floor, the meeting space in between. This is the area where both can socialise while enjoying a meal. This is the area where they can also share ideas to each other and create a close friendly bond.



Miranda Kerr’s office has been designed in a very conceptual way. It has been created so that there are sections which almost act like rooms. It hasn’t been divided by walls however it has been shaped in a way which practically does the same job in this case. There are 3 sections, top floor was produced for the on hands work such as all the paper work. the second floor was created for more of the practical work. for example, the left side of her office is a rather long, for the purpose of practicing her modelling walks or Cat walks. The wide space on the right can be used as a photo studio and other things. The textures represent a soft impious feel, representing her powerful visual qualities of seduction.  This office strikes a futuristic powerful feel, which symbolises Kerr.







Hellen Kellers office has been shaped and textured with clean cut solid lines to represent her concrete self determination and will power. Her office also has 2 floors. The top floor is a quite place where she can focus on writing her books and complete other sorts of paper work. The lower floor can be used to teach a large amount of students as she is a lecturer. The wide space underneath the top floor should have more than enough space for the students that want to visit. This solid hard building represents a different type of power, more of a self willingness and educational type. However Miranda’s building represents a more seductive modern power.

Image on page 26 of the lecture

First of all the image relates back to the concept of the design in the sense of connectivity. The image reveals little shapes and figures bonding together. Similarly to my design of the rectangular model, there are several points which correspond directly to this image. I like the idea of this obscure unique feel of the image which puts forward a new scheme to a component of my design. It has given me a basic concept that I want my design to be unique, something that stands out from the rest. The image reflects back to concept of intertwining objects and figures, creating one form with several objects.





5 REAL TIME IMAGE CAPTURES


As you can see, the working spaces are divided into two parts. The section seen on the left consisting of the the lower roof is Stephen Hawking Space and the lab on the right with the elavated roof is where Charles Darwin would work. Basically this combined working space has been created in a simplistic and realistic way where both Darwin and Hawking can interact and meet effortlessly. Relating back to the ElectroLiquid Aggregation quote, this model has been designed in a way which would save time in interacting and movement between Darwin and Hawking. They are not in seperate rooms neither are there any barriers which cut them apart from communication. However it is taken into consideration the both require there on personal space, that is why the model was created in a rather long style which enables this factor.




As you can guess the ramp has been created mainly for Stephen Hawking as he travels around in a wheel chair. The ramp both gives access to the space below and access to there working spaces. The landform below has been moulded in an appropriate way which enables the clients to meet in the space below. The ramp is connected with the landform allowing both Hawking and Darwin to comfortably exit there working space.




The textures seen on the out covers of the building consist of a light shade for the purpose of reflecting heat and light during the day.




The dark textures on the floor give a sense of ground and strength.
