Week 5

Workspace Models

The particular workspace that I modelled is my living room.

The dimensions of this workspace

Paper model (Scale 1:20): This was quite easy to work with, for folding and cutting. However, as it was quite large, the paper sagged at some parts quite easily.

Cardboard model (Scale 1:20): The cardboard was much stiffer and folded more easily. Cutting cardboard was more of a challenge, and I had to be careful as to not bend it accidentally, as those mistakes could be visible.

Model with folding paper techniques (Scale 1:20): Here, I tried to include as many folding techniques as possible within a reasonable design of the model. Cellophane and paper were used for the model.

Two windows have been added on the sides, and they have sharp patterns across them to add a stained glass quality. The back wall has a herringbone tesselation and v-pleats for decoration.

 A partition has been added to separate the doorway and the inner space. Furniture and a mat have been added for the decor of the space.

Fusion 360 Work

The transitional spaces I modelled on this software were the living room, the kitchen, and the stairs which connect these two rooms.

The dimensions for the rooms

Here is the work. The scale I chose for this model was 1:20.

However, as the components could not fit within the boundaries set - 400 by 120 (mm) - I had to scaled down the components to the scale 1:100.

Previous Work

Here are photos of the earlier models that I have made for the studio activities of Week 5.
These represent the bottom level of my house as well as its exterior facade.

Week 4

Here is the composite of analogue and digital drawings of the grid area C13 on campus.

Week 3

Here is the plan that was drafted up when undergoing an on-site investigation at the grid area C13. The pedestrain movement during that time bracket was also noted throughout this investigation.

The image below of the grid area on the campus map was directly referred to when conducting this primary investigation. 

Here is the orthographic plan regarding the pedestrain movement at the grid area C13, specifically for the time bracket of 3 pm to 5 pm.

Week 2

Here are the photos of distinctive features of the grid area C13, taken for the on-site activities, and their corresponding colour swatches, using Adobe Capture.

Repetition or pattern

Cast concrete

Green space

Structural support

The dataset that I have made an infographic for is Students by Discipline. 

 

I chose to make a bar graph to represent the data and, as per the group's decision, choose a pastel colour palette to represent the different types of students taking the course BENV1010. To accentuate the representation of students, I have included stick figure people running about. The immediate background of the graph takes on the textures of Mathews Theatre A, where we attend lectures for this course. All in all, this was an enjoyable work to create. 

End. 

Week 1

The grid area my group (Group 1) of Tutorial Group 5 was assigned to is C13.  

Below are the drawing exercises for the in-studio activities of Week One.

Assorted contour and blind contour drawings with dominant and non-dominant hands

Negative space drawings

More blind contour drawings

Here is the creative work I have completed using Photoshop - placing a Rolls Royce car onto a photo of my group's assigned grid area C13 on UNSW.
