week 14 | design process

the root
just like the main structural purpose of the root 'holding up the body and absorb the nutrients from the ground.
my concept is to design a space/building where give the energy to the community and hold them together...

deign process

after the last check up with tutor i finalised the floor plan and building form to start on the CAD system. i mainly used revit to draw the whole model and going to use lumina for rendering and animation..

revit process
form work

as per the initial concept the form of building is following step farm.

through the building i tried to open the building as possible as to get a view of paddington area using advantage of the slope and also for the maximum sunlight. also if someone is looking at the building from the bottom the whole inside structure will be seen. so even user is inside they can see the outside and feel the outside while inside..

the interior of the building will be formed following series of the feature tree column. trunks will be spread out from the main column with lighting feature.
so every level looks like they are all linked up as a tree.

i tried highlight the entry foyer space. from that space people get a clear sense of space where to go. from the entry foyer where with high ceiling with open view to up and downstairs, clear idea of each floor can be seen or imagined. it will lead the user through the whole building.
