model charrette


For the design concept charrette, I tried to get away from the programmatic elements and try to be more conceptual. I started out building models and then I looked at them and tried to make sense of them and decide what they could be. I think I could have taken this a step back, because even though it isn't clear where doors or floor planes are, they still have an element to them that feels very much like a building. For the next exercise, I would like to break these down further and get to the basic concept of them, rather than trying to analyze each of them and try to form them into a shape that could possibly be a building. Also I was trying to get a general idea of the site area around the building, but didn't take into consideration the interaction of the site with the building. That is one of our goals in the site/ground plane group, to incorporate the site and the building together rather than being two separate entities.
