Combined study Models

For the next assignment we had to pick two of the study models for the collages  and combine them into one .

the 2 i chose were the 2nd model from the first collage and the 2nd model from the 3rd collage.



i combined the two to create another model 

what i tried to do was combine the flow and material of the first model with the separation of planes as well as the bridges connecting the individual planes 

here are some more pictures of the model

Assignment 11

For our next assignment was to make abstract models from the collages we made in the previous assignment

1.
For the first collage i made these 3 models the first one starting on your left is meant to show the layers of the collage and the color added is to express the bright colors in the collage which represents heat.
the second model is made to do the same thing express the layers and the variety of the colors i chose to use straws for this model to show the fluidity of the collage.
for the last model i stacked the chip board to play with the layer effect .


2.
for the second collage i had to make models that involved the word hidden the first model resembles a veil and i thought that it hiding something that cant be seen played with the hidden aspects in 2 ways , as for the second model i went something a little more disorienting so i curved the screen to hide a little piece of straw which can be seen at the middle of the vortex.
as for the third model i went all the way into a layered piece that could hide something as well as be disorienting it also messed with the stacking aspect in the collage itself.

3.
 For the 3rd collage i decided to get really colorful with the models to represent the chaotic aspect of the collage 
the first model i made tried to play with the dynamic aspect of the collage by using different planes to convey 3 dimensions , 
for the second model i wanted to do the same thing but i thought in the first model the planes were connected directly together and in the second model i wanted for the planes to be connected but not directly . 
for the 3rd model i tried to advance that idea and then change the shapes of the planes and then reenacting what was going on in the collage .

Assignment 10 -Concept Development

We were required to make Collages to help with the design of our project 
1. One for your impression of the site you have selected (not images of the site)
2. One of the words: Alive/Active, Adventurous, Inventive, Elegant, Hidden
3. One Collage based on the program of your project.

below are the collages 
For my first collage i was supposed to make an reflection of the impression the site gave me 
i used Red,Yellow, and orange to represent the heat i felt when we were on the site and the gray tones resembled the urban aspect of the surrounding area . I added a layered affect because with the Highline in the area it made me feel like the area was layered with people walking on , above and below the street .


For the Second collage i had to choose from one of the words listed above the word i chose was hidden . the reason i picked this word was because of the way the site felt we had to walk through the city and its constant chaos to get to the site but once we had gotten to the site it was like finding a diamond in the rough .

For my third collage i had to show elements of the program of my site which include an Arcade,food court,Archery tag,paintball and a movie theater.

please keep in mind that all of the collages had to be Abstract. thank you
