Sketchup Model draft 2


Added above are the various sketches that were used to create the stairs within the model. They show the curvature of the tread as well as possible layout of the stairs and support systems.

In the above image the stairs for the above and below studio have been developed. General material themes have been chosen for both levels as well as materials for the stairs. The above will use natural materials such as timber and will have an earthy feel about it to correspond with the human body metaphor of the portion of the structure as well as suit the works created by Ricky Swallow. The below ground will have a more industrial feel to it to suit Piccinini's extraterrestrial type works. For this reason materials such as perforated metal and insitu concrete.

Changes were made to both the above and below ground. The below ground was altered to have a more curved nature within the roof portion to represent the flow of family life; ups and downs. The heiarchy element has been keep with the differing floor levels.

In the above image the below ground has been designed to protrude through the ground level in order to allow sunlight into the studio.

Revised model images of the design with the influence of the words "Pulsating" and "Family".
