Draft Model and First Import into Lumion

This is design I had prepared prior to submission but didn't feel it expressed my ideologies as well as Farshid and Frei's.



Test Import into Lumion and Play around with settings -

Electroliquid Aggregation Concepts

Farshid Moussavi:

1. Architecture produces platforms for the way people engage with uses of buildings.

2. The manipulation of decisions of organisation or construction to achieve the affect is done with small .

3. A singular assembly, not a shared signifying system.

Frei Otto:

4. Think about how to envelop "air" or "space" with the minimum amount of material and power.

5. Explore the movement of forces within the structure to make it visible.

6. Explorations into light, strong tensile systems are not merely technological pursuits; they are didactic of a larger social discourse of inclusion and egalitarianism.

Electroliquid Aggregation Concepts:

1 + 4 = Enveloping "air" or "space" into design creates a sense of engagement for people with the functions of structures.

2 + 5 = Small elements within the organisation of the structure make the larger scale of the design visible

3 + 6 = Didactic egalitarianism can be expressed through design to create a singular assembly
