Architectural Concepts:
- Lebbeus Woods- Architecture that disregards the ground plane. terrestrial reference. defy gravity.
- SANAA- Simplicity minimalistic ideals of clarity & purity through simplicity
New Concept:
- Defying gravity with a lightness and simplicity of form
Texture Used:
Five Lumion Images Of My Monuments:
The image above shows the integration of landscape and monuments.
The image above highlights the unadorned, vertical volume of
the curvilinear monument, which implies aspiration and yearning, as if defying
gravity. The idea of defying gravity is enhanced by its texture: the distorted
fishing net-like texture suggests a downward pulling force of gravity, while the use of thin
lines minimizes weight. This gives an illusion that the vertical forces are
neutralized and thus, defying gravity.
The image above shows the relationship between the two
monuments through the small, rectangular, textured volume of the rectilinear monument pointing at the vertical volume of the curvilinear monument; and the shadow of the
vertical volume casting on the rectangular volume. This image also highlights the simple, architectonic form of the rectilinear monument.
The image above highlights the wave-like texture on both of
the monuments, which gives a sense of movement and suggests the ‘electroliquid
aggregation’ of the two monuments.
The image above gives an illusion that the sun and the monuments are positioned relative to each other.
