Architectural Design I
Projects 1-3
These
projects were all an out-of-the-box way of learning the architectural
concepts of shapes,
spaces, and their possible interactions. Common shapes
like cubes,
triangles, and spheres can interact by abutting, overlapping, putting
one into the
other, or smashing one into or through the other. There are of
course different
variations of the common shapes and the interactions can be
used to link
several shapes or spaces together to get one large structure.
Project 1 - Sugar cubes used to show shape interactions, along with mass,
and voids.
Project 2 - Dowels, used to show spatial interactions with a goal of
being conservative with the number of dowels
used to define a space.
Project 3 - Planes, the
same concept as project 2, but on a multilevel with an added goal of having a
small, medium, large space. There was also a requirements for a minimum height
(24 in) and use most of the plains.
