week 11 & week 12 updates...

im gonna update some experiments as well as progression pictures that ive taken from week 11 and week 12 of my studio :).. so be prepared to b thrilled :D

i still did a lil experiments in finding what i can do with the interrelationship that comes across spaces within the proposed studio place.. and then i discovered the 'fish-net' theory when i was taking shower as the fish-net rub amazed me on how a singular weaving technique gets repeated, will resulted in repetitive, continuous and extremely flexible surface that is seen as an object made up of those singular-square shape holes...

then i began taking this theory and try to apply it onto paper, by try to use folding paper technique, aka origami, to show how its being done.. the result was pretty amazing as instead of becoming some kinda skin or wall for architecture, it can be translated into fashion accessory too as i was trying to make it into a sunglasses :D super futuristic :D

in my previous entry about week 10, i was talking about using visual lines to connect both studios but after discussion with my lecturer, it seems like its too literal and lack of meaning when its just visual lines that join these two studios together while sort of abandoning the studio at Pittsburgh, so i came out with the idea of linking three of the studios together not by visually linking them, but through trade routes, direct routes drawn on map, flight route, ship routes... and from there i extract the information and using those lines as my guidelines to place and arrange the spaces within the studios...

after that, i was wondering how to create spaces but at the same time dividing them without using an actual wall as walls will really cut off the interactions between the spaces within the studio and that is the last thing that i want it to happen... so i used the curtain technique of creating a draping interactive walls that soften up the hard edges of the interior spaces and at the same time creating a range of privacy according to the spaces in the studio :)
