Week 9 - Design Sketches and Model

Design Sketches

The museum will be on the first two levels and the art school will be on the top two levels. i tried experimenting with the glass panels whether to use irregular panels or the traditional panels in my design.

NOTE: this is not the final concept design, this is only a basic layout for the function of the building, i will be experimenting with the form more in depth when i model it in 3ds.

I wanted to encase/wrap my building in a shell which also acts a rain/sun barrier. The blue outing shows the framing of the barrier.

I filled in the framing with light blue and turned down the transparency because i didnt want the barrier to completely hide the building, with this being said the barrier will transparent enough to see the building.

Experimenting with different shapes of the barrier, the barrier will look alot like the venom's lair facade having irregular angles and folds.
