FINAL SUBMISSION

Article Mashup

Light to dark to light our senses soar, we refuse the distinctions between concept and percept in a time of perpetual brightness. My bridge would become a nirvana of black darkness wherein people started coordinating their very relationship with the sun, and how their lives might function within this environment. Architect’s daily struggle to cope with the labyrinth of the concept of space is made a little easier after the studies of engineering and the successful testing of concrete and steel. The experience of architecture automatically closes without engineers and this technology in the industry.Viewed from a distance, my project serves a duality of purpose, to necessitate a new architecture of tranquil relaxation but also facilitate the realization of engineering’s impact upon magnificence. I would like to propose that the future of architecture lies in the construction of events.

The Elevators






The Folly


Externally the folly does not portray a design based off an F-shaped perspective sketch, however, the corridors and stairs of the folly are orthogonal,and hence when viewed from above, the F-shapes can be seen.

The Bridge




New Design

My bridge wasn't exporting properly so I started again today :/ here's what I managed to scrounge in a day.

Model and Landscape Progress

I wasn't able to upload my SketchUp file into CryEngine because there was no 'levels' folder in the Geom Entity tab. Any suggestions? Anyone!

CryEngine landscape developing this idea of eroding level surfaces to mimic the landscape of the Kimberley


Model as a whole so far. I'm trying to convey my theory of the relationship between engineering and architecture.
