About MODULE 1
MPavilion- A Lively Space
The image on the left side is the isometric view of the modelled MPavilion. In this view, I manily show the pattern on the shelter , the depth of the Pavilion, the shadow on the floor , as well as the texture of floor and landscape.
In amanda’s Pavilion, the most intuitive pictures are the roofs that are as elegant as “leaves”. In more detailed objects that our view coud have, is the middle hexagonal shelter and wooden floor for people to walk under the eaves. With the growing plant, they may not show any special arrangment, but the blurry and vivid edges make nature and harmony coexist.
The space also subtly creates a special range of activity and transition space. Among them, the scope of some people’s activities has been affected by the landscape. Some activities have also been affected by something special such as coffee table. But to a certain extent, they have not completely restricted the flow of people. That is to say, space does not have an absolute functionality, but instead guides people to do what they want to do. As for transition, the thick dark lines on the drawings, as well as the roof edge and environment, represent three different levels of space. They all have a spatial line that enables people to cross.
At the same time, I also learned how to build up a complete model while using plan, elevation and research. This provides more logical way of thinking how to arrange the space.
Why should I say it is a lively space? According Amanda’s description, the concept becomes more clear. Human life is always connected with architecture. Regardless of the size of the space design, people can always find their own shelter in a certain space.Such a space, they do not need a specific definition to let people know the purpose of building him. On the contrary, some people can stay alone, and some people can communicate and gather. Even better, they can also give people a feeling of rhythm like nature, and let people be in it.
Step 1- Doing Research
When it is the first time to came into contact with the model drawings, I was worried about the accuracy of the model, I chose to do a field study before making the model.
During the research, the structure of the building is worth thinking about how to make it, for its structure becomes the basis of a shape for the entire design. In addition, the environment of the pavilion are also essential and has been marked it down. Meanwhile, some people who was walking through the pavilion are also captured to analyse the circulation path that the area could have.
For the problem of height, I have numbered each roof at different heights so that I can group and level them in the subsequent models.
Step 2- Making Outine and Structure
In this step, I first traced the outline of the shelter. As the picture shown above,every Triangular and hexagonal roof has central point as the guide point to form the shape. The horzontal and vertical lines are used to form the line accurately.
Then it comes to floor plan.The floor has two parts, which are wood plain and landscape area. And not every single area has the same direction of material.Therefore, I use different layers to distinguish.
The other part is the structure.One triange and hexagonal shelters are set as examples to try to think about the structure from inside of the pavilion. After finishing one structure, I use “group“ to fix structure for easy modeling.
Step 3 - Arranging and Extrude
In this step, marshalling the
shelter into different colors after
finishing every shelter’s location
on the plan is essential. Then, the
height on the elevation map is
canculated, and then the shelters
which have been marshalled
into group are represented by
different colors to the correct
heights.
Next, I extrude the curve on on both my shelter and floor into 3- Dimensional and divide into two colors to identify easily.
Step 4 - Placing and drawing pattern
In this step, both color shelters are placed in a fixed, arranged outline.
It can be clearly seen that the hexagonal roofs are mainly
concentrated in the middle, while the triangular shelters are mainly
distributed around. This distinction is more intuitive and analytical on
the shelter plan.
At the same time, with the help of the control point, each structure
with the control points of the shelter to complete the model of the
shelter and the structure. Meanwhile, the control point also helps to
create the symmetrical line pattern on the top of the shelter.
Step 5 - Combination
In final step, according to the location of the roof and floor on
the plan, shelters and floor are combined together.
At the same time, after determining where the shelter is
above the floor, columns are used to connect the roof to the
floor.
Finally, adding the pattern makes the model more complete.
Model Making Process
Diagram
Circulation: Although there is no specific obstruction space on the pavilion to make
people inaccessible, some special things make them slightly limit the scope
and path of activities. The trajectory of people like this is closely related to
pavilion itself and the environment. However, under the influence of environ
ment and design, people have different densities and crowds, which makes
the space have a certain focus.
Threshold: Obviously, the entire space is effectively divided into three parts-inner
shelter,outer shelter including floor and environment. Among them, two transi
tion spaces are required to pass from the outside to the space itself. Each
boundary makes people have different spatial experiences after crossing the
transition space.
