Independent task- Week 6

In project one, my ideas and concepts were centered on SANAA's style and work that they had done with buildings and how they conceptually handled their ideas to conceive an elegantly curvaceous environment. 

Just running over my previous assignments in project 1 to reposition myself in terms on this new project:

From project 1 in assignment 1 I had two concepts:
Simplicity and Free-flowingness
The concept of simplicity comes from the effortlessness of SANA's buildings which envelopes a sense of softness and lightness with the use of a basic colour palette (see the New Museum of Contemporary Art)The free-flowing concept is derived from the curvaceous planes of the Multimedia Centre in Oogaki. 

From Project one Assignment 2 I had two concepts which were refined by the previous concepts in assignment 1:
Which were Translucent Spacial Proportions and fluidity.
Apart from refining these concepts based on my previous assignment, I had also adapted the two concepts from the Rolex Learning Center made by SANAA.

A separate building that  I chose by SANAA is the Teshima Art MuseumMy other building that I'm choosing by a completely different architect is Palau de les Arts Reina Sofia by Santiago Calatrava.

Three examples of buildings/functions what i wish to create in this next assignment could be:


  • A residential area/home with an intimate sort of setting.
  • A skyscraper-like building.
  • The last one that I could think of that would suit my purposes is some kind of office building.
