COLLATION OF ACADEMICS AND TRANSITIONS
An architectural element that is isolated from a project, and one generally accepts that, if there is a protagonist, it must be related to its global conception. Long-standing attitude … encourages a love of  facts, evidence, and being practical, which is combined with an open-minded pleasure to be sought from innovation, experimentation, and novelty. A complex whose internal structure is perceived through the spatial connections and resonances among the pieces that form it, also allows acknowledging the meaning that one single principle can acquire through the mechanism of the series. A contrast between architecture understood as landscape and the traditional conception of buildings as independent objects with their own internal structure. Long-established focus on the design project and the studio as models for both architectural practice and pedagogy. A canvas for commissioned works of art, keeping with the museum’s original philosophy of openness, provide spacious galleries for temporary exhibitions while improving the overall circulation of the building” spanning the length. Building is a hive of activity. Engineering students in studios, students and seminar groups in study spaces, academic staff toing and froing between offices and labs, and below, running the length of one side. Light-filled spatial armature, an internal street that is an organizing spine of circulation. Form could follow function, multipurpose learning spaces. Height changes depending on the spatial needs of the interior. These multiple transformations provide the mechanism that enables the unit’s adaptation to different circumstances.

Why....?

The computer I have been using at the lab to create my lumion, crashed at the very end when I was about to copy the file. Therefore, I lost my lumion folder for the unexpected surprise this lab computer had to offer me. This situation was out of my control and was a mishap, I hope you kindly consider my circumstances of not being able to upload my Lumion folder.
Luckily I have just managed to upload my sketchup model before crash.


Final Submission


Fluid Texture form Light(above) to dark (bottom) have been used to indicate the frequency and probability of ocean water hitting the surface closer to the ground more often with rigorous waves or storms.


Airy Texture used for part of Rectilinear structure. The higher one goes above the ground, closer to the sky, the thinner air becomes, i.e, less dense and drop in pressure. Hence the texture lightens and becomes less dense with progressive levels above.

Stippling texture used to represent each floor experiencing amount of rain drops. Levels that have been sheltered by monumental structures, would receive little rain drops compared to grounds that are not.

V4

Making of Monument

V3


Version 1









Concept 1 Goldberg:

  • Separate components integrated together to give the structure a sense of rhythm and curvilinear form. Replication of elements and varying scales.
Concept 2 Gang:
Outcome Concept:
Separate components help create levels of stepping stones, one on top of another, to reach high above the ground, closer to the sky.

Parallel projections


Concept 1, Goldberg:
  • Goldberg thoroughly believed to design a "city with a city" that could fully accommodate people's everyday needs and activities. 
Concept 2, Gang:
    The sky is the limit.


Concept 1, Goldberg:
  • Landmarks transcend time, however the immortality of monuments is an obstacle in front of scientific progress - meeting the needs of the science of today.
Concept 2, Gang:
  • pioneer; the aqua tower and is the tallest building in the world to have a woman as lead architect


Concept 1, Goldberg:
  • Separate components integrated together to give the structure a sense of rhythm and curvilinear form. Replication of elements and varying scales.
