Week 5-9: Final Model

Throughout the past weeks, I have had the opportunity to develop my model making style and develop my ideal workspace.

Final Model

Taking my theory and flipping it upside down, I decided to generate a space secluded from the norm of rectangular buildings.

On top of this, the rendered image shows my ideal context for the building, sitting out at sea. I kept the original cardbaord materials as I felt that the corrugated distinguised it from flat paper walls.

Week 9: Urban Interior Space, through Models

The requirement of models to communicate designs, ideas and the interaction of light is inherent to allow the viewer to gather a better perspective on the building. Using materials capable of illustrating minute details is crucial in displaying features of a given space. The projection that urbanisation will cause over 70% of the world’s population to be living in cities by 2050 requires dense living styles similar to ones seen in Hong Kong apartments and the one shown in my model. As such, materials including paper and cardboard allow for this detail to be represented whilst also being recyclable.

Week 8: Photoshopped Renders

Interior:
Here I attempted to recreate as much of the original material scheme as possible, referring the the real life counterpart for detail and accuracy.

Exterior with materials:
I find exterior material much easier to render. However, in the case where the surface has many different edges like the roof canopy of the image below, it was quite difficult to map a material to the surface.

Week 8: Fushion 360 Model with Materials

My material choice for my object followed my liking towards wooden structures embedded with parts of metal or a material with a similar metallic surface.

Week 7 Model

Model Photos Incorporating Lighting

The following models are of the interior space of my backdoor/deck. I chose this part of the house to represent with light as it casts beautiful elongated golden shadows late in the afternoon. Which, I have attempted to recreate.

Materials:

• Plastic Bag
• Corrugated Cardboard
• Sheet Cardboard
• Hot Glue
• PVA Glue

The follow 5 images show the outer deck which restricts the midday sun from reaching the interior space. Each representing the space under different lighting
