OBJECT INSPIRATION

                                        INSPIRATION FROM NON LIVING OBJECTS


During the lesson, our tutor provided a box with a variety of objects to pick from. There were houses , piggy banks , ropes and so on. However, I selected the flower due to its sophisticated look. The flower has an array of colours with pink being the dominant colour


                                         WORDS TO DESCRIBE THE FLOWER

In order to fully interpret the object we were given, we were tasked to make a list of words we can use to describe the flower. My list of words were

Elegant

Eye catching

Exquisite

Majestic 

Mesmerzing

Nostalgia

Potruding

Contemporary

Complicated

The list can go on and on but these were some of the main words that made my list. 

Personally, the flower serves as a relic to what something was, is and can be in the future. The flower was once a plant thay was blooming with many petals and full of life. Now it is dead with no life and dull outlook.




     HOW THE FLOWER GAVE ME INSPIRATION TOWARDS MY ARCHITECTURE PROJECT 

The colours the flower possess also influenced me towards selecting pop art as my theme. This is because the flower has a variety of colours ranging from blackat the tips of the dead flower buds. It also has a range of shades of pink. Not forgetiting the pedicel of the flower which is brown. All these colours can be interpreted to have a variety of meanings

I turned the flower upside down and it made me think of a building. The tip of the pedicel of the flower being the apex of a building and the actual aprts of the flower being the base of the building. 

This flower in particular also has a big stigma in the middle and many anthers and stigmas. This made me think that I would want my buidling to be as sophisticated as the flower is

SITE PLAN ANALYSIS

                  PROJECT SITE PLAN A site plan is a bird's eye view sketch of a region or area. In order to enhance the site plan, an analysis also has to be made of the climate, transport and accessibility in the town or region.  The map above illustrates the precise location of the Golden Horizon Apartments. It is located in Cromwell, Connecticut directly opposite the St Elizabeth Seton Church. The area of the site is 79,119.77 m² and the total perimeter is 1,138.3 m. The site consists of four main apartment blocks, underground parking, ground-level parking, playground as well as an outdoor lounge not forgetting the garden. The image above is of vegetation that has currently been burnt down. However, in my site plan, I included new layouts of plants that will be cultivated to restore nature's balance. To aid in accessibility there are two roads which are Brooke Street road and the Hawthorn Circle road which residents can use...

                                 JEAN NOUVEL- MONAD TERRACE This post is mainly an expansion of my previous post regarding my idea generation. The Social Housing sector demands precision and the ability to experiment with varying ideas. Hence, this task I would say was coincidentally given to me to challenge me and pull me out of my comfort zone.  For this blog, I will conduct research into Jean Nouvel who was and still is one of the most influential and creative Architects France birthed.  JEAN NOUVEL  Jean Nouvel was born in the year 1945 in Fumel, France. After he enrolled at the Ecol des Beaux-Arts in Bordeaux, he obtained the first position in the entrance exam due to his high intellect and intelligence in the year 1966. He then went on to further his undergraduate studies and obtained his degree in the year 1971.  He began his professional career in 1970 after he became an assi...
