Final Animations X3 (Moving Elements Can Be Seen in the VIDEO 2 & 3)




Moving Elements are:

1. The Path with the rail that connects the School to the external workshop and that can be seen in the second video. It moves in an up and down direction. The workshop is where students can go to do their models and laser cut and print etc.

2. The Folly as well. It rises up from within the mountain as in it rises up from the ground and sits on the peak of the hill that is filled with smoke and fog. The Folly is the meeting point for the Dean. This is seen in the 3rd and last video.

MASH UP - Architectural Theory

Mash Up:

Theory:

The Future of Architecture is changing. It is a very unique and equitable professionArchitecture can be made to become meaningful and make compelling contributions to communities. It is the process of designing and creating buildings that can have an impact to society and create a new sense of light and art in the world. Architecture nowadays is becoming easier as new technology is being released and used to complete projects. Computer uses various programs and media technology to design and build the complex depths of the architectural surfaces while also inviting visitors and audiences to engage with the architecture as well as the  installations of its design. Architecture is a state of the art expertise. Whilst Architecture and Architectural Computer deals with the layout, design, structure, materials and all of the building, engineers take care of the deeper details of the buildings structure whether it is. Architecture is designed to be minimalistic and spaces are filled with design elements that are familiar to the designer themselves

Lumion Valley


Chosen Valley

The Valley that i have chosen is
The Yosemite Valley Located in California.



It is not from my country of origin. I did not choose a valley from my country of origin. I decided to research on various valleys around the world and this valley happened to have caught my attention so i decided to try and recreate this natural beauty, spectacular and magnificent piece of landmark.

Some info on Yosemite:

- Yosemite (Pronounced: Yoh-sem-i-tee)
- 8 Miles (13km) long and up to a mile deep
- Surrounded by high granite summits such as Half Dome (Granite Dome) and El-Capitan (Vertical Rock Formation), and densely forested with pines
- The Merced River (Pronounced: Mer-sed) runs through the valley; 145 miles (233km) long; its a swift-moving and steep waterway course


Here is a short video clip of the Yosemite Valley:

Final Project












Landform & Monument Progression

This is my Lumion Environment so far. I have been experimenting with shaping and forming the landscape into a more rocky and ragged mountainous terrain with plenty of outcrops and have a winding road that leads up to my monumental space running around it. I made it, so that my monument must be accessible by the public and students. There is also some space within the monument that the public can move around and meet up. My idea was also to have my monument planted on the side of the ragged mountain which can overlook the water. I also took snapshots using Fraps to show viewers the different angles and views of my environment during different hours of the day and sometimes with a perfectly clear sky and sometimes with a more cloudier look.
Since this is my first time using the lumion program, i found it to be pretty easy and simple enough to pick up and learn very quickly. It was very enjoyable creating my own environment and virtual buildings.

Electro-Liquid Aggregation

Chosen Pair


Chosen Concepts:

Original Concept 1:
Spacial Continuity - Kiesler's Concept of Endless Space is space that just continues with no specific end to it. It has a continuous curved surface and the structure shows that it can maintain a shape structurally without having a column and or frame to support it. (Kiesler)
&
Original Concept 2:
Geometry - Preston was really deeply rooted in the disciplinary traditions of architectural geometry. Use of perspectival projection in combination with stereotomy meant that he was always concerned with the controlled description of forms imminently tractable to material fabrication and realizations. (Preston)



Electroliquid Aggregation

Geometry is the art of adding and subtracting various shapes; mostly those which can be divided equally and symmetrically, together to form one single unity; that becomes the scheme in establishing a concrete idea in creating architecture. It may be very simplistic in nature but it helps emphasize the notion of endless space within; whilst walking through the building and experiencing the unique form and internal skeletal structure first hand and noticing that it needs nothing to support it, giving the inhabitant a complimentary aspect and feel of it. It connects very well together as if it belongs; being able to survey the surrounding nature from within and being able to observe the movements of what takes place inside from the outside.
