For example, I noticed that the valley was continually rising to the right. I also noticed that you can't see to far beyond the left of the image, meaning anything could be happening. Even so, I gathered that the terrain would slowly become flatter and flatter as that is what the overall slope suggests. I also wanted to create a terrain that highlighted the colder Germany. In other words, I made the environment Winter. Even though it is early stages in the design yet, I have an idea of how the cold climate will help aid in the transmission of the idea of power. This is what I ultimately came to.</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgckS97ThNLsO_pj-Dkf5d4gbEqJrSb0491TMYPN9UApD0iEag5H6Ar-a6ngf-i5RhLJlABcQ7p9xL5eRbSprqyL3UfZdbekikfxKXdg9RZvITKUENS8gQ53YX0Wlp2oY9iBdpkffklO9g/s400/Editor+2010-05-10+23-42-03-56.bmp" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5469638068956664674" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 213px; " /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#FFFFFF;">I am toying with a few ideas in my mind with this landscape. The inclusion of the river makes for an interesting dip to perhaps build my bridge over. Even so, I am unsure about this. Furthermore, I am not sure whether to make this more of an urban environment or a heavily vegetated one. Either way, I need to find the appropriate brushes to convey these two different landscape features. </span></span></span></span></div>Rhys Symingtonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06148939465451759120noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5954340521804317551.post-3719535652744830272010-05-02T20:03:00.014+10:002010-05-06T20:24:23.615+10:00Experiment 2 Submission Post: Ignorance, Stupidity and Greed<div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#ffffff;">The Three Quotes:</span></span></span></i></div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#ffffff;">The brief asked for three quotes, but only two clients.

I decided to translate these ideas to my textures. The rows of textures you see below are structured as follows:</span></span></span></div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#ffffff;">1.

Stupidity: I used the 'stupid' textures to really go crazy. There were no measured or precise elements in these textures. They are crazy, spontaneous and stupid.</span></span></span></div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#ffffff;">3. Greedy: The texture progressively takes up more and more space. It is greedy. </span></span></span></div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#ffffff;">4. Ignorance: The idea for this was similar to the first. Despite looking complicated, no two elements from either side of the square are touching. </span></span></span></div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#ffffff;">5.

There is an element to my architecture that accompanied each of these ideas. They have been highlighted with an appropriate texture. I.e. The piece or architecture that takes up a lot of space is highlighted with a greedy texture. The architecture is also only supported by a central pillar, making it perfect for the landform I embedded it in. </span></span></span></div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#ffffff;">The idea behind my landform was to have a very steep terrain that also explored the ideas. For example, the fact that the architecture is surrounded by a massive crescent shaped bay fortifies the idea of ignorance, as it segregates the architecture from the greater world. </span></span></span></div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#ffffff;">As my architecture and landform were created for Hawking and Darwin, I felt it necessary to explore their philosophies in the ramp structure. Both of them are of such high intelligence and their minds can compute many different ideas at once, practically all of which have had some bearing on the scientific world. I created a ramp that was long, windy, steep, shallow, sharp, blunt, rising, falling ect., thus incorporating as many different terrain 'ideas' as I could, which is similar to the way these mens minds work. </span></span></span></div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#ffffff;">Their two quotes speak of a an uncertain future that could end in destruction. I also tried to include this idea along the ramp, as I have included some dead trees, and bland rocks along the way. This idea is most prevalent however at their meeting place, which is outstretched, high over water. Here, the dead trees add to a sense of the macabre, and the fact that it is so outstretched makes it seem like it's at the centre of the world. I imagined this space being centralised because if these two people were ever to meet, the conjunction of their ideas would be centre most to the continuation of our species and planet.</span></span></span></div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><br /><span style="color:#ffffff;"></span></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span"></span></span></span></div><span style="color:#ffffff;"><span style="-webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline" class="Apple-style-span"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

This is an idea that I would like to interpret and include in my assignment. For example, I could make an element of the structure completely uninhibited and drastic. I think this relates well to my inspiration from the word "stupidity".</div><div>Secondly, the image on the right motivates me as far as my sketches are concerned. It is an interesting way of drawing and the shapes are rectilinear. I really like the colour palette and the different shades of orange. </div>Rhys Symingtonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06148939465451759120noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5954340521804317551.post-52725598974730056072010-04-27T08:31:00.004+10:002010-04-27T08:43:53.877+10:00Electro Liquid Aggregation of Quotes<div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" line-height: 20px;

Furthermore, the different colours of glass are meant to interact to form a fuller spectrum as the sun moves across the sky. These colours will also be visible through the entire form.</span></i></div><div style="text-align: center; "><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#FFFFFF;">The stairs on this level represent form in a few different ways. Firstly, there are two intertwining spiral staircases which resemble a twist. This is a separate idea that comes into my mind when thinking of form, besides contortion which is what the overall structure is based on. One of the spiral staircases has perfect stairs, but there are different sized balustrades protruding from them showing that form doesn't have to be perfect. This idea is continued even further on the second spiral staircase which has stairs of different depths. Furthermore, the textures that have been applied to the random stairs are there to surprise the user and to also exemplify my point of form not having to be perfect.</span></i></div><div style="text-align: center; "><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#FFFFFF;">The below datum storey is made completely of stone. The reason why there are so many pyramids protruding out of various parts of the design is to create many different angles on the ceiling of the space. Furthermore, as these protrude through the datum, they provide natural light to the underground space as everything above ground is made of glass. The angles that are visible in the ceiling are also continued on the stairs in this space. The stairs are awkwardly shaped with many acute angles. This is continued in the balustrade.</span></i></div></span></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#FFFFFF;"><br /></span></span></span></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: normal;

This eventually formed into the idea of coloured glass. From here, I hypothesised that if there were different colours of glass, as the sun shone through them, the colours would mix and create a fuller spectrum. As my upper storey has three bubbles attached to it, I decided to make each bubble a different primary colour. Since there are many different angles and overlapping areas, I figured this would be the best way to create a complete spectrum of colour. </span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">This lead me to think of the idea of transparency, and it was this idea that I searched in youtube to find an interesting video. I found a video on Transparent Cement, which is a cement that is almost as strong as the real deal, but it can let light through it. In certain lights, it looks completely opaque, but when you hold it up to light it seems porous.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" white-space: pre; "><object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/3cx8JCOvTBw&hl=en_US&fs=1&"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/3cx8JCOvTBw&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" white-space: pre;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" white-space: pre;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" white-space: normal; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">The next few images are of the respective artists studio spaces with their artwork in them.

For this attempt, I changed the top storey completely to try and fit better with my word FORM. I kept my idea for the underground storey similar but made it more angular to fit better with my word FORK. This is also the reasoning behind why the underground studio space is completely different; it is more angular. I also made the haphazard pyramids attached the studio space extra high so they would poke through the datum in a later model. Also note that the stairs are a different shape and rendered in stone. Furthermore, I have added a jagged kind of railing to the stairs which is a development of my initial idea.</div><div>N.B. The view is set to "X Ray" so you can get a feel for the whole space as well as the stairs.<br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhD6P_Bkid6JYIbXPiQE4C6SYBLOant0rR2TBGoayAa2ohobR6ZD6EoKLc99gxHCRon6576Jgrv2W6uLW2cFT84JEvIXGoZ5DLsE2C3dXHlzPXV53d6BVhFMO-9I5xShVmMokfA2Ipb9cw/s320/Draft+2+Upper.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5454043384612409314" style="text-align: left;display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 231px; " /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2lOzLhM6bfe4ENesxgv82cDuBNRYGcKf3junvTeBk9SAm64tMmsH2CyIg2Bb__JlQU25fbaKtTWOExolNybAc3FnOjG_Sezx6-O_gMQgrPYaxp2pdcqTniZH3xV9bWDu4h2cfaZAhsOw/s320/Draft+2+Lower.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5454043480279575570" style="text-align: left;display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 231px; " /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgv5TrEZHb-v8dLtldrRAtp0zaVd04iYD6mgaA5eNqe12RSaBUs_ChsSLiu0m4QpFq14hr1yQQ72gsOTIzHcbC0J1PayGZB-RakDGdfMn2u3ohG8GwKYUzSEVsuSsyNHygSS232fxAWelQ/s320/Draft+2...+Stairs+Under.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5454043597818229058" style="text-align: left;display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 231px; " /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><br /></span></div>Rhys Symingtonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06148939465451759120noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5954340521804317551.post-89577587556980183172010-03-29T23:12:00.008+11:002010-03-29T23:32:49.742+11:00First Draft...

The materials for the under datum storey is concrete that is rendered different shades of green and blue.<br /><br />The first image is a side view of the entire structure. I really tried to focus on different shapes and angles, hence the weird dodecahedron shape on the top storey. Housed in this shape will be the studio space for artist 1. Below the surface, however, angles played a larger role. The shape you see connecting the datum to the underground is where the stairs will go, and the studio space is the room with the elongated dome shape on top.<br />The second image is a perspective section which I feel best shows off both studio spaces.<div><br /></div><div>This first draft was based off this section: </div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgklb9ew5cDh5bwQfvNYXBevNltpHlQb0MWE1B4hHWxwTxDMaTlu7R5tPZ_AToNmsIPxhZzPZk4StzytR2jXWTHEVQN5B8KYCU-m0BWf_8DVH4HBzHoWWY2Ynqi5TiePKeh8Um0dJzzLLU/s320/Section+1+-+First+Draft+Idea.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5454027398621919282" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 238px; " /></span></div>Rhys Symingtonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06148939465451759120noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5954340521804317551.post-67238302132398831422010-03-05T17:19:00.002+11:002010-03-05T17:59:04.023+11:00Descriptions...Task Two: Upload three images, one each from the work of Patricia Piccinini, Ricky Swallow and Richard Goodwin.

This self portrait comes from a photographical miniseries on vanity. The series focused on the effects of colour also. All together, there were 7 images each with a certain edited dominant colour and a caption. The unifying quality across the series were that the eyes always took on the chosen colour that was edited into the image. As you can see, the eyes in this picture are red. Even so, this is the most subtle artificial colouring present in the series. <br />It's simplicity and subtleness are what I feel contribute most to its overall creativity.<br /><br />My Inspiration... <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.naxmix.com/storage/yellow-treehouse-restaurant-11.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 1087px; height: 789px;" src="http://www.naxmix.com/storage/yellow-treehouse-restaurant-11.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />Andre Nax, (2009). <span style="font-style:italic;">Tree House</span> [online].

Formatting technicalities...</span><br /><br />To be completely frank, I am not one to overly enjoy the outdoors. Even so, I absolutely love the idea of living in my own little tree house. It's this apparent dichotomy that initially leads me to love this structure. Other than this though, I love the overall "vertical seashell" shape as well as the fact that it stands out in a dramatic way, especially with regard to lighting. The structure was designed as a promotion for the yellow pages. Dubbed the 'Yellow Treehouse', it's a restaurant that's raised 10 meters above the ground which facilitates 18 guests.<br /><br /><br />My Originality... <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgh9KHBQ2TTUfMRIahd-f59CgPz3u0k4qvl-hSJZfvfWBtf8JNiEc8E7ldVZwl0wHUKKEypf5EkRO8dIemyKp8Di71gZLHTMPVMGntaZXz1WBvEjxJVcJMti0N3WfcOWx5-QT6LBOMCEtQ/s1600-h/Macau+(1+of+1).jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 238px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgh9KHBQ2TTUfMRIahd-f59CgPz3u0k4qvl-hSJZfvfWBtf8JNiEc8E7ldVZwl0wHUKKEypf5EkRO8dIemyKp8Di71gZLHTMPVMGntaZXz1WBvEjxJVcJMti0N3WfcOWx5-QT6LBOMCEtQ/s320/Macau+(1+of+1).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5444838085809984738" /></a>The iconic cityscape of George Street portrayed the way I choose to see it...<br />I took this image late in the afternoon a few months ago. Living <span style="font-style:italic;">way</span> out west, I rarely ventured to the city. This separation is probably what contributed most to the adoration I have for it now.<br /><br /><DIV ALIGN=CENTER>---</DIV><br />When I look down George Street, I see the colours and shapes intermixing in various ways, but late the afternoon, the shadows take over. Even so, I still know what's there. Unfortunately, my camera does not. However, with the help of choice editing software and a high resolution image, the deep shadows and washed out sky could be removed and the vibrant, busy lifestyle that I have grown to love can be translated exactly how I see it.Rhys Symingtonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06148939465451759120noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5954340521804317551.post-49701311189804679752010-03-05T02:35:00.000+11:002010-03-05T02:45:51.484+11:00A Simple Hello...Hello. <br /><br />I'm Rhys, and this is my Architectural Blog. <br /><br />This is where I'll be posting all my work related to the Architecture course I am undertaking at the University of New South Wales. <br /><br />See you 'round class and campus!Rhys Symingtonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06148939465451759120noreply@blogger.com1
