week 8/9 progress model

-
I tried to utilise different materials and decided to try fly screen material with boxboard. This was quite challenging due to the difficulty in sticking fly screen material to it self or even to the boxboard.

I tried to utilise the similar technic used doing the paper model but didn't work as well as the paper model. But i am glad that I've tried this progress model to get used to range of materials and next time  i want to utilise similar materials I will switch the material from soft fly screen material to stronger or bendier metal material.

Week 3- extended Orthographics- pedestrian movement

-

The illustrator activity of creating accurate representation of buildings and creating pedestrian movement helped me to further develop understanding of creating shapes more effectively using the path and intersections of lines. This activity also taught me how to control width and variation of curves using width tool. The challenge faced during this activity was the additional shapes that were being selected together when combining lines to create shapes. I have tried to avoid this through locking of layers and occasionally adding in the non essential(not building) shapes after editing of buildings shapes.

Week 7- light and scale- modelling activity

-

This model was created smaller than the previous models to efficiently utilise materials at home in the 1:100 scale. I've experimented with light using the flashlight at home to maximise the result of direct lighting to the rooms. The materials I've used includes mostly boxboard using techniques includes folding for parts of the staircase and the walls of the smaller room/base room. I also utilised paper to represent the floor and plastic sheet to represent a long window on an angle to let natural lighting in. - I will be further developing on the models to allow natural & artificial lighting to create an ideal atmosphere for my room Light from the right Light from the left (towards the plastic material) With human figures
