Parthood: Landform and Structure

We were given one of the three topographies and asked to make a structure which has a strong relationship with the topography on them by using any of the design concepts including harmony, coherancy, hierarcy, dominance, contrast etc.

 

Draft model:

I split the topography according to its slopy characteristics into three main parts which were high slopy, mid slopy and low slopy. In order to express the slope characteristics, I extruded the high slopy area downwords and flattened the lower slopy area. Later, drawing the borderlines of this three main parts I assigned my axes and designed the structures accordingly.



here is some beforehand digital sketches:




Final Model:

This time I turn the given topography into and abstracted diagram form so that it became regulated allowing me to work with.

A structure skeleton and the final model

some details and my paper

Parthood: Parts-Whole

We were given one of three Richard Miery's building in which I was assigned with Saltzman House.
We were to chose some elements of this building and use them in our own design.


   

The first model I ve done was a very ordered composition that makes good use of elements yet, It was in 2D.

Final model was more complex then the perivious one. Spaces were more defined and well abstracted.
