Developed Model (FINAL)

I am quite happy with my final design. It is aesthetically pleasing and all the levels seem to work together cohesively as a unit.


The stairs to the Above Ground level reflects the "repeating" of Ai Weiwei, and also complements the overall structure of the Above Ground form. The material chosen for the stairs is one of my custom textures that lends to the idea of repetition and "permanence" (another word that I chose to describe Ai Weiwei's work)


The stairs going from Ground to the Under Ground Studio for Louise Bourgeois is very simple. Cantilever beams extrude from the oddly shaped wall to create bent and unique stairs. These features create the space that represents the artwork I chose from Louise Bourgeois which I described as "destitute" and "suspended". The material used for the form of the Underground Studio is another custom texture that represents "fabric", looking at the material of the artwork. 



This section shows the large interior spaces available to the artists and how the landscape comes into the design. The beams going across create an interesting design when the model is viewed from aerially. I have added stairs that come from the "ground" and into the gallery space which is floating over the landscape. It is textured with a custom texture which I feel relates to the nature and the landscape "organic". I also chose it because of the curved and natural form of the stairs and beams.
