The Monarch
PROJECT TEAM: Trae Horne, Sena Ozdemir, Geliang Zhu
The project my group worked created a space that would narrow the senses and give one a new perspective as they are on the shore facing the the lake. In the drawings I worked on I wanted to capture how the structure was constructed and by a rotational linear array of objects of same length. In the above parts and pieces isometric the drawing connects the method of construction with the object as a whole. The scale figures help convey a sense of scale and the ground plane helps provide the context of the sand. I only used line to convey depth and importance. I feel that the line weights are more successful in the isometric drawing.
I ended up tweaking the original design by increasing the number of horizontal elements while also decreasing the height of the parts. Decreasing the height of the horizontal elements while increasing the total amount creates a stronger defined form. This design change helped increase the rotation of the space and provides a more enclosing feeling. The spacers in between the longer structural elements are wider than the initial design which captures the front view more than the smaller spacers. The increase in parts provides a stronger understanding of the geometry.
