ARCH1101 Week 3 Progress

 For this week's independent study, I have developed multiple hatching patterns based on the words generated from last week's studio and I have added these custom textures into my SketchUp model. I have also put in some details in both workshop as well as adding in the client's product respectively to demonstrate the relationship between the brand and the studio space.

 1. Gucci Studio with Products

The studio space for Gucci continued the classy style of the brand with simplistic detailing added to the workshop. The long rectangular desk and the glass parapet with marble studs highlights the sophistication and nobleness of the brand.
  
2. Revival Studio with Products

The concrete block acts as a working desk space for the designers to continue the raw confronting style of Revival. Note that both the designer and the bike are insignificant in relation to the landscape.

 3. Custom Texture

           

             

 During the last studio, I developed multiple hatching patterns (More patterns were posted in Week 1's post) based on the words generated and I have chosen three of them to put into my model.

                   Steel (Tough)                   Glass (Lightweight)              Concrete (Compact)     

 I then added these textures into my SketchUp model.

The "Glass" texture was added in the model, however, the lines of the texture does not line up perfectly due to the curving glass.


                           

Here is how the concrete underground space looks like with the custom texture, this one turns out a bit better as the lines in the texture actually connects and create a uniform texture.

Lastly, there is the custom steel texture. This one does not turn out as good as I was hopping due to the curved pipe surface.

Project 3 - Final Submission Theory "Angular and intersecting forms as a monumental style in modern architecture." The Bridge The bridge located in between three buildings, the Block House, Round House and Square House and provide a focused group of architectural students a new environment to develop their skills and knowledge. The bridge provide access between the Block House and Square House which allow easy access to the workshop as well as the Uni Mall. The Exterior of the bridge consist of black and vegetation panels to create a lively sense to the building. It also act as a good insulation for the building. This is a view of the building and its surrounding from across Anzac Parade. Note that the underside of the bridge is curved to create a streamlined notion, yet the unpolished exterior says otherwise. This is a view of the school from the underside where you will normally walk past when going to the workshop, or getting a drink. Th

Project 3 Week 2 - Moving Element This week I have attempted to create an adjustable facade as a moving element in the architectural school. The shape and form might not be the same as the final product but this is just a simple demonstration of the idea. The facade will provide shading for area such as the lecture theater when needed while still allowing access to natural lighting.

Project 3 Week 5/6 - Third Draft Based on the feed back I received last week, I decided to redo my design and based it around an actual bridge like structure. I first started simplifying the section again so that I have a bridge like shape that I can work with. This is the simplified section with two longer sides acting as the bridge. I then started to develop the bridge side first unlike the last two times in which i focused on exterior aesthetic first. However, the school is still going no where as I couldn't get the shape I wanted. And then I started experimenting with Artisan again in hopes of finding a suitable exterior for the school. At last I got a shape that I am interested in developing after lots of trail and error with the shape. Note that the shape on the right was not bent at first but I did it myself to make it looks nicer. In Week 6, I continued developing the design and met some design decisions. First is how the leisure space should be shad
