Exp 3 - Final Model - File Uploaded to File Front

DM-ARCH1101EXP3NickAgnewv2.ut2

Exp 3 - Final Model - my Top Pick of images







Exp 3 - Final Model - "Jobs Temple"



Although a serious guy, there is definitely a "think outside the
square" quirkiness to him. To capture this I've used a slippery-slide
like elevator design to join his office.





Jobs seems distant and aloof, but his mind is constantly at work on new developments.


Columns are used to reflect a reverent mood for the man and that mystic forces
are at work.





Jobs chair is shown as twisted and metallic to represent the his dynamic
mind and his sometimes cold mannerisms.





the cubes shown are rotating holographic images representing his latest "sea of ideas".



Exp 3 - Final Model - Dining Area

Emerging from the tunnel into the Dining Area





The dining room is symmetrical to show equality and respect for the other.
The space is created using a negative BSP polyhedron which opens the ceiling to the sky and blends the distinction between wall and roof. A suspended ledge creates a balcony on either side of the dining room.

Exp 3 - Final Model - "Donatellas Cathederal"


I felt that "Donatalla" thinks pretty highly of herself, and
prides herself on impressions.Therefore, I chose to portray
her as if a queen in a Cathederal-Castle like structure.






I wanted to refer to a drawbridge with a twist so a moving
platform was employed instead, descending then ascending
into the hall.







The stairs represent her rise to power and the pilgrimage of her followers.



There is mix of old and new materials to indicate her respect for tradition
and newer trends.
