EXP 2 - WEEK 2 - Developmant sketchup model & Cryengine Environment

I just take advise to development the model as the old one is looks really similar.
 Then, I also develop the environment as well. Now the building looks fit in the environment.
The concepts are not changed.

mid night view
 afternoon view
morning view

Concepts:
Antonio Gaudi: the taste for asymmetry (top part)
Richard Rogers: Structural expressionism (bottom part)

Electroliquid Aggregation:
The asymmetic structure can present the distinctive characteristics of nature.

Sepecifically, both Antonio Gaudi and Richard Rogers considered the nature and envrionment into their concepts. Also, the nature contains distinctive characteristics and it is affected by those within the nature. In terms of land, there are different types of land in natural environment, including cliff, lawn, block in city... In this Cryengine Environment, the asymmetic structure and the special landform  represent the dictinctive characteristics which are created by nature and united together.

Meeting Point:
The metting space is created in the middle part of monument. And there is a path from the hills up to the meeting space, also it down to the bottom part of monument. Personally, I consider that the meeting point will be somewhere to get together, and easy to connect both two structures. This idea comes frome the point of nature, which contains large number of species and lands.

EXP 2 - WEEK 2 - 3 Pairs of sketches, Images of models & Cryengine Envrionment with Monument

3 pairs of sketches:

1.
Antonio Gaudi: Integration of crafts
Richard Rogers: Lightness

2.
Antonio Gaudi: the taste for asymmetry
Richard Rogers: Structural expressionism

The two sketches below are developed a little base on the simple 10 rectangle forms (the picture above).
I was considering there could be more opening spaces for looking around, and develop the original sketch a lot. The structure is astmmetric and it shows the concepts.

3.
Antonio Gaudi: Intricate, complex detailing
Richard Rogers: Legibility

The two sketches below are developed a little base on the simple 10 rectangle forms (the picture above).
This developed sektch is a thinking of trying different combination. The idea is that the two monument are seperated and they are connected by a tunnel, which is in the middle bottom part. Then, people can walk through from one monument to another.
Pictures of models:


Antonio Gaudi: Intricate, complex detailing
Richard Rogers: Legibility

EXP 2 - WEEK 1 - Axonometric Sketches, Model & 1st Cryengine Environment

Axonometric Sketches:

Antonio Gaudi:
the taste for asymmetry
Intricate, complex detailing

Integration of crafts
Richard Rogers:

Structural expressionism

Legibility

Lightness

Model of intergration: 

Cryengine 3 environment



Legibility means the distinctness that makes perception easy. The unique structure can show the deifference between the environment and it can be discovered easily.
The reason for the arctic environment is that my design represent the "Legibility" and the snow is smoothy
and soft, so the snow  and the bulding become a strong contrast, which can show the concept better.
