PROJECT SUMMARY FOR PRESENTATION

-

                                           PRESENTATION IN WEEK 7




KUGGEN BUILDING



    This blog post is a major summary of what my project entails as well as my aims and objectives 


AIMS AND OBJECTIVES OF MY PROJECT

First of all my theme is pop art. I selected a pop art theme because it will enable me to express myself vividly through vivid designs and colours as well as sending out a message. 

The main objective of my project is to create an Art Gallery in a developing area which is the Rosa Parks district in France. This Art gallery will serve as a major landmark which will provide the residents as well as tourists with a wonderful art experience. This area is not known for having art galleries hence mine will be the first to be constructed in that area. I will make one final 3d outcome and 62d sketches of my work. 


INTENDED OUTCOMES

This art gallery will house sections where artworks are exhibited to the public. This includes both 3-dimensional and 2-dimensional artwork. There will also be a section where virtual reality art exhibitions will occur. This will be made possible using virtual reality headgear. Technology is advancing each day and virtual reality exhibitions are prominent in the art world. Hence, including this in my project would be a good idea. The type of architecture to be used is contemporary Architecture. This is because, with a contemporary plan, I can have large open spaces as well as use sustainable materials for construction



PLANNING AND TIMESCALE

Currently, my main 2d sketch is complete. In this current week,  I will be working on my prototype, which is still in the works, my 3d outcome, and my 6 2-dimensional sketches.



CONTEXTUAL RESEARCH

FRANK GEHRY-2014. Canadian Architect.  Louis Vuitton Foundation in Paris. The main materials are glass and concrete. 


SANTIAGO CALATRAVA- Valencia City of Art. 1998 (The main materials used were cement, glass, steel and aluminium.

He had a fascination with light and with his building designs he always tried to figure out a way to make organic shapes exist in harmony and complement each other. 

JOHN HARRY GRAINGER AND CHARLES D'EBRO. 1887. It was later redesigned by Archimedia and FJMT Architects.- Auckland Art Gallery New Zealand. It contains historic and modern contemporary art. The main materials are, Kauri wood, Plywood as well as glass for the windows



PROCESSES OF CREATING WORK- Processes will be shown with blogs.



FINAL PIECES- Display my sketches as my 3D works are still in the making. 



REFLECTION- First of all, concluding with a final design was difficult as I had so many varying ideas but I finally came up with a design.

    Your presentation went well, you were articulate and outlined your idea well. The main thing worrying me is the time it has taken you to finalise your design and the workload you now have to complete the 2D works as well as the 3D works. I expect to see you pushing this as much as you can in Week 8.

                                                                INTRODUCTION         Hi, welcome to Mani's Cosmos. My name is Manuela Boaduwa Xose Mantey .I am an Art and Design student at De Montfort International College and I will further my studies with a bachelor's degree in Architecture.  I have a keen interest in art and the design about buildings, artworks portraits amongst others. This blog will be based on topics related to the architecture field as well as how I will maneuver my way around the use of a variety of digital software                                                              Any Architect can draw and design a building and with the help of Engineers, these buildings can become a reality. However, to produce sophisticated structures, not every Architect is capable of this.   However, there are a few Architects who have made a mark in the Architecture world by producing abstract and astonishing building designs. Some of these Architects are Frank Lloyd W

INITIAL RESEARCH: ATELIERS JEAN NOUVEL- MONAD TERRACE

                                 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 assistant to Claude Parent and was inspired by urban planner and essayist Paul Virilio. He then became one o
