Hamish's building was at the opposite front of the Vector Arena. He went in to the theme of gathering as a place to discuss/share/gain ideas.

Peer Review 2

Broderick, April Grace
April's project was a plant store. Her store had walls cutted out in a plants shape to show this idea. In her project she wanted a fluid form for her stall walls to be fluid because she wanted those who walked inside to be engulfed and surrounded by an array of aromas and sights, and to visually capture how these scents rotate and move around and across the space.

Flett, Amy Michelle
Amy's project was a book store. Her main idea was looking at the layers of pages and looking at block text and to show this she had holes square holes in her book store. also her ceiling had this texture to show this idea as well as for some natural lighting. In her store the whole place was a place for book.

Hills, Aaron Cavell
Aaron's project was a art gallery. His building's design was a inpired from an artwork from an artist Piet Mondrian. This made his building shape to be a solid and gave this interesting where it touches at the edge.

In this project I have used my 5 storied building from my last project. I shrinked my building in to 2 stories and used my top two stories of my building.

In this project my general idea was gift of giving. To show this idea I decided to connect the offices for my five occupants. By connecting these five offices I wanted to show how we can give help to eachother. which made me thnik of another idea of gifting which is gift of helping. Also my made up word was "ROUTEVE" which I forgot to mention in my A1 sheet. This word is a combination of everyday routine. I made this word because some of my previous works contained the meaning of daily routine. I tried to show this idea on the 2nd floor by having rest room and toilet as the first room you see when you go up stairs.

Final Model


After mid sem crit I I went around some web pages looking at some building for me to show my ideas and symbols as it did not give an idea from the outside.By an architect MVRDV and found this building. Water Cube Parvilion for  2012 World Expo in Yeosu, Korea which I directly derived the ideas into my building of this shapes showing at the outside to show the idea of my symbols in each floor and it's general shape looks quiet similar with my building.

 I decided to stick with my general idea of giving symbols in each stories. Because my building had a diagonal line as it going up I needed my each stories' floors' edges to be cutted by angles. so I decided to cut the each floor in to 15pieces and put them together.
















I Blocked the 4th storey (study area) for it to be secured from the noise but not completetly for some natural lights














This is what it looks like when all 15 pieces are put all together. If you don't look it very closely it just looks like that I have use engraving and coloured it into dark brown...

Showing how I cutted out the mdf to make it fit eachother.



Cut abit at the right edge to fit in the windows.
