Week 2

SKETCH AXONOMETRICS 

The final six sketch axonometrics are derived from last weeks task of sketching 12 axonometrics which best related to the architects chosen by our tutor. The two architects chosen were Antonio Gaudi and Richard Rogers

After sketching concepts that relate to two different artists separately, the next task was to explore the interconnection between the the drawings made from week 1 
The concepts i combined from week one were:
Light controlled and lightness, embracement of irregularity and exposed, and materiality and structural expressionism.


THE TWO CONCEPTS that I eventually decided upon were:
Gaudi: Light controlled
Rogers: Lightness

Electroliquid Aggregation Concept:

The combination of the two concepts which were light controlled and lightness allowed me to conjure up an Electroliquid aggregation concept :

  Illuminated set of surfaces which unites a buoyant structure

Cryengine environment: 

After sketching my ideas on the combination of words that related to the two architects, I settled on utilising my combination of "light controlled" and "lightness". The decision to combine these two concepts into my final design allowed a fresh ground of ideas to start off with. The environment that i have stuck with is the desert landscape that I've created from my first go at using cryengine, i've evolved the landscape abit with the creation of a lake which encircles the mountain that the monument is connected to. 

The reason that the monument looks like it's floating is because the back panel of the monument is the one that holds the monument and the landscape together, essentially allowing the monument to suspend itself over the landscape below it.
