Week-1 - Sketch problem/solutions

This is a good first sketch problem... I would like to see/know what everyone else thought while starting these and if the idea (project type) changed. For me, without knowing the purpose for the parts but knowing what they are and what we trying to achieve while maneuvering around them started a train of thought.... A museum. Below are three quick sketches of the space and series of spaces. Tonight I will upload the sketch-up images.

Solutions:






Problem:

Adding to the model base create a composition of spaces that can be perceived as one object, where there is a clear “inside” and a clear “outside”. Create one main entrance into this object. Your “object trouvĂ©” should mark a special place in your composition or be treated as a sculpture. Indicate the following spaces and transitions in your model(s), making sure that they are the strongest examples you created:


1: Large space with two distinct sub-spaces (zones: 1A and 1B)
2: At least one small space
3: A transitional space that is part of two others.


AT: Abrupt transition
LT: Lead transition
GT: Gradual transition

make sure the zones are sub-spaces in the same larger space.

I noticed that as well, I thought I would pause the sketch-up segment and work a little in model. I would like to see explore some other space movements as well as better define the 'sub-spaces'. I will have some physical model images tomorrow in the am.

Ken,

I approached the problem with a similar museum motiff. You know how you get a glimpse of an object from one gallery but never quite know what you will fully encounter until you get there. Half the fun is getting there; probably due to the experience of the transitions.
