Phase 3: Michael Ocejo

Merge: The model is divided into five different color groups that combine as they go into the center. The desinty also increases as user goes into the center of the model. The candles are also placed on an angle to add a sense of percarousisness. I wanted to create a feeling of hierarchy in the … Continue reading Phase 3: Michael Ocejo

STUDY MODELS: EXPLORING SPACE THROUGH DIFFERENT OBJECTS INTERSECT ( Intersections as points of interaction) Intersecting paths are create through the use of staples in different orientations. The outer stepped massing represents a stacking of vertical floors that are connected through open corridors. Proceeding along these walksways encourages the user to interact with others, due … Continue reading Phase 3: Documentation

Phase 3

Merge: Model Pictures Merge: Section and Plan This model was created using the protective layer from acrylic sheets. When peeled off, this material naturally curls up upon itself, and I placed the different rotations in different locations and slightly manipulated them to created slightly inclosed spaces around a central shared space. Gather : Model … Continue reading Phase 3

Phase 3: Derek Pietrowski

Q-tip For my first design I chose q-tips as my found object. I explored many different concepts for developing this as a space that shelters and condenses a space as you move deeper into the structure. My final concept explored this idea of condensing the space and creating different levels of shelter as you move … Continue reading Phase 3: Derek Pietrowski

Phase 3: Found Object Model Documentation

Found Object: Bottom of Bottle Sharing Concept: Weave How model reflects sharing concept: Circulation is weaved into the private spaces like the format of the veins in a leaf. Found Object: Glow Sticks Sharing Concept: Bind/Bundle/Intersect/Overlap to Gather How model reflects sharing concept: The glow sticks are first bound within each other through special … Continue reading Phase 3: Found Object Model Documentation

Phase 3: Creating Shared Spaces

This model works with the sharing concept of bundling. The pencil modules are bundled together and staggered at different heights to create spaces of seclusion and spaces of interaction/observation. This model works with the concept of intersection. The four clothespins are separated slightly to create spaces for intimate gathering within each clothespin, and a central … Continue reading Phase 3: Creating Shared Spaces

Model 1: Aluminum Pan For the Aluminum Tin Model the sharing verbs I chose were Weave and Gather. I cut the entire vertical element from an Aluminum Pan and used its curves to form private spaces. There are two spaces that are more private and enclosed, with the pan enclosing and overhanging the space. Then … Continue reading Phase 3: Documentation

Phase 3

Using cut up pieces of an old box, slanting them and repeating across the 6"x6" site, I was able to work with the concept of merging multiples of the same space under the same roof to create a sense of "rooms" without using walls or doors. The main concept of this iteration was for the … Continue reading Phase 3

Phase 3: Ruth Muniz

Overlap: This model is organic and natural. The main idea is that eggshells never break in the same manner so the spaces that are created with them always vary. Some of the eggshells create spaces of their own which are more public. However, when the eggshells overlap, more private spaces are created as well as … Continue reading Phase 3: Ruth Muniz

Phase 3: Documentation

I used the same sized screw at different lengths to create areas of sitting, resting, leaning and exploring. The taller screws are closer together making a visitor have to weave through. The areas of shorter height screws are spaced farther apart to allow for more private interaction with the space and seating areas. The sharing … Continue reading Phase 3: Documentation
