BEFORE THE FINAL SUBMISSION:
POINTS TO BE CONSIDERED......
1. NARRATIVE: Your single line narrative indicating the following components:
- character, his physical attributes
- an indication of the nature of space (eg. tower, hut, hamlet, bunker, studio, cave, shed, pavillion, den, castle, abode, escape, temple, box....and so on)
- the activity: exaggerated to a level of passion.....so the architectonics will emerge for and enable activity to its limits....
2. SITE SELECTION AND SITING
Please select a tangible site with specific characteristics and features like a forest, on a beach, within a mountain slope or hill, on the top of a cliff, in a valley, in a desert, in a crowded city, in a pristine garden, a part of a complex, along a lake..... with some reference to the climatic quality like hot, cold, tropical, pleasant, dry, humid and its nature: sloping/flat/rocky/stepped/sunk etc....
Also consider the siting: how your buildings sits onto the site....whether it is embedded completely/partially, raised, suspended, braced, tucked, projecting, cantilevered.........
3. REPRESENTATION:The clarity of representation of the above characteristics through beautifully rendered drawings and a well crafted model....do not limit yourself by paper/cardboard/balsa...think beyond....and be creative...
keywords:planes-layers-shadows-repetition-rhythm-penetration-volumes--overlapping-play-abutting-clashing-contrasts....
4. Focus on the quality of light and its entry, use of colors and textures, inbuilt elements, landscape features to modulate the space.
Above all.....enjoy your dream design.....
