Experiment 2: Final Submission

Skechup Model:

Behind The Model:

Two Concepts:

Purity of the whole without recognizable parts: This idea suggests that the whole building should be the "Total work of art", which means every single parts in the structure would work together in a same mode. Another meaning of the idea is this kind of integration should be shape by assembly of unrecognizable parts.

Aesthetic lightness: This idea proposes that the beauty can be shown from the lightness of the structure, Because a too heavy or steady shape may result in the lack of energy and movement.

Electroliquid Aggregation:

Fantasy of lightness within the structures assembled purely as a whole: An impressive building is often created in an abstract and light structure, which may give a sense of fantasy or illusion. However, the free shape does not effect the sense of the building to be a whole. This is because the assembly of the structure is under the same style, no matter the parts of the building can be recognized or not. In addition, this kind of appeal is not only expressed from the appearance of the building, but also the function of it (This will be talked in next Para).

Sustainable Theme: The theme of the building is another reason why the structure is created as a whole. Besides the ground level, this whole station is form to be two opened spaces: The upper one indicates cooling while the square one is for warmth. This because the downside level can reach richer sunlight with the application of thermal mass on a corner and the upper terrace is shaded under dark reflected shelter with good ventilation. This arrangement can reduce the use of electrical device to provide warmth or cooling down, waiters can choose to stay at different level when temperature changes.

5 Model Images:

The whole structure of the station insists on the lightness by applying curvy surface with translucent materials and refined interlocking, which makes the structure combined as an integrated form.

The appearance of the station gives a sense of fantasy because of its combination and forms, especially the huge curvy upper shading.

The lower level can absorb more sunlight for its direction and dark material. This creates the warm volume in the station, which can reflect the sustainable them with the upper cooler space.
