Continution Concept 2: Sowing Pattern of Fabric to create "Light" FORM

Section: Revised form to relate to the Bayardo Building 

In Progress...

Continuation Concept 1: Fabricating of La Miniatura Floor Plan-F.L.W.

Transformation of the plan into a section.  My interpretation of "lightness" by using La Miniatural floor plan to create a sense of weightlessness or floating through the section.

 Concept 2: Use of Sowing Patterns

I used the format of a sowing pattern to create a form that would give it a sense of weightlessness.  Patterns fold to create special space that allow and interesting lighting with in the form.

Concept 3: Fabric

I used fabric to create it's own structure.  The overlapping, twisting, and folding of fabric creates a special roof plan that "floats" above. 

WEAVING

Weaving: My attempt to weave cut strips of La Miniatura, Millard House, floor plan by F.L.Wright as an way to find and create a different spacial organization and pattern. 

DRAWDELS

This drawdel represents the plan and section of the spaces within the mass, and how the shadow is cast as a result of the spaces. 

The site plan drawdel exhibits the perception of the direct path experience from the existing Columbarium to the dark under space below.  It signifies the path of life from start (light and above ground) to end (dark and underground).  

Additive and Subtractive Concept Models

The last model is the combination of two conceptual models to create a different perspective of massing appearing and openings. 

PLASTER AND CASTING CONCEPT MODELS

These models are concept studies of how light would enter in space.  Also these models are representations of additive and subtractive space of a mass.  The intersection of the two idea create how these interesting spaces are perceived and certain light entries in space.  

Casting is pretty messy, but it's fun.  Casting a mold which portrays negative space.
