Round 2-Motion

In this course, i have learn how to use camera and drawing to make things look real, and most importantly is how to get the people going into the space by using model (as a tool to help me visualize the space and i can actually take photos of it), and A5 drawing with choral and pencil.
I came up with the ideas of the experience from one stair to the other stair. There are some different strategies to deal with stairs. Communicate with people by using
model, techniques of lighting, camera angle, shadows, rendering and consequence of the stills are the most outcomes in the course.



























3 Words:

Cavernous

Collision

Filigree

The space that turning over and space underneath each other suggest the collision of the spaces. The broken stairs show the filigree of the space. And the extended spaces after the window investigate the cavernous of the space.

The spatial narrative is start from the stair which was going downward, which was originally going upwards. Behind the upside down window, there is a stair that was suppose as an internal space, stair is connecting to another stair and so on, the direction and the angle of each stair is different and so as the space within the stairs. Stair can extended to unknown space, or can be broken once arrive there. Jumping, going through, flying and walking along the stairs are used to experience the spatial arrangement. Model images, perspective drawings and the combination of both are used in the film, by shifting the mode of presentation, reality and materiality are shown in the film rather than just drawings.

Round 1-Modelling




COLLAGE
This is the first round of the whole course, I choose this as the first round because i know in this semester, we all year 1 students have to make models in our design studio. So i think this will help me more for the first round.
In this round, firstly we have to expole our existing space by applying different strategies.
In my apartment, i think the sense of the roof is not really there therefore i make my model more towards up.
i took the photos around my buildings with interior and exterior, and i have to observe the surrounding and then cut them out to try to make the first COLLAGE in my life.

By using models and COLLAGE, predict the experience of the space and expand the imagination in my head.

This is the apartment that i am living at, it is in Maroubra.
These are the internal view in the building










This the the internal view in my apartment


The is the first model of my apartment


The strategy that i used is refragment on my new roof.

I extened my apartment both horizontally and vertically, and i remove the original roof and replaced with a new roof.






And this is the final model

thanks
