Final Developed Model with Custom Textures

Experiment 1 - Datum

The two studio spaces that I have created here is based on the themes of Spooky(above) and Mechanical(below).

Spooky theme is demonstrated by the webby-like feature hovering above in the center of the design with the additions of rib-caged like architecture engulfing the hallway leading up to the artist studio of Louise Bourgeois. The incorporation of the rib-caged design is to convey the feeling of uncertainty, being in an enclosed space which plays on the perception of safety.

Mechanical theme is portrayed based on the shape of the building itself. The staircase which leads to the studio of Stelarc contributes to the theme itself as it descends in a spiral way just like a mechanical drill.

The Section

This was the sketch my design was initially based off, during the modelling process, I discovered and improved my studio for Louise Bourgeois. That is the reason as to why the sections for above studio are not similar, in fact, I have kept the center 'arc' through to my final model.
