'Mesh Up'

Movement is found in nature in every living organism. The fit and movements of our bodies within and around buildings are significantly effected by our haptic sense, by the tactile surfaces and edges we encounter. The use of the same elements or materials in a consecutive way suggests a smooth flow.Smooth surfaces invite close contact, while rough materials generate movement in wide radii around corners and more careful tentative movement through corridors. Changes of texture often signal special events and can trigger a slowing or quickening of one’s pace. Even static elements in architecture can suggest motion, as static elements could change with time and offer a sense of movement when exposed to elements such as wind, rain, or temperature

12 AXONOMETICS

"The very essence of architecture consists of a variety and development reminiscent of natural organic life."

" Where space was considered permanent it now feels transitory – on its way to becoming."

'‘Big-ness’ - dismiss scale and proportion as no longer applicable to contemporary architecture."

"Nothing is as dangerous in architecture as dealing with separate problems. If we split life into separate problems, we split the possibilities to make good building art."

 "The ultimate goal of the architect is to create a paradise."

"The unbuilt is the fantasy that underlies everything."

EXP 2

Alva Aalto

Nothing is as dangerous in architecture as dealing with separate problems. If we split life into separate problems, we split the possibilities to make good building art.

 Create a dynamic between the building and its natural surrounding.

 The shapes and design that surround us are the music accompanying tragedy and comedy.

Rem Koolhaas

Where space was considered permanent it now feels transitory – on its way to becoming.

Fragmentation used to reduce impact – divide the building into smaller pieces and arrange them so the building cannot be seen as a whole from any point of view.

The unbuilt is the fantasy that underlies everything.

EXP 1 Final Submission 

The concept sketch for my final submission.

This staircase is for Givenchy. The vortex tower like staircase is to represent the luxury DNA of Givenchy. 

This staircase design for Jeff Wright's studio. One continuous metal tube penetrates through the steps not only for load bearing but also a metaphor of Jeff's  mechanism.
