Independent Task - Week 6

1) A brief outline of Project 1 What was your chosen architecture? What were the concepts unpacked in your concept model?

A concept model which drew inspiration from Morphosis Cooper Union. The initial concept of the "section" envelopes onto eachother comes into the development of the architecture.
I wanted to convey the 'section' that turns to architecture and vise visa throughout the model.

2) A visual analysis of 2x precedent studies as a pair.

3) A Design Proposal and Design Draft for Assignment 3 – List three specific building types and functions for your new design. How can they challenge the concepts and ideas you have looked at in
Project 1? Select one and begin a first design draft.

    • A residential area/home with an intimate sort of setting.
    • Office/Commerical area 
    • Art Gallery/ Musesum
    • A Educational Building

Wk2 - Research on the Cooper Union

The 41 Cooper Union is an Academic building for Advanced Science and Art, designed by Morphosis, located in New York, USA.

The building presents optimistic intention to provide an education “as free as water and air” in commitment to Peter Cooper and has subsequently grown to become a renowned intellectual and cultural center for the City of New York.

It has a sharp and folded perforated-stainless-steel shell with an aggressive gash in its main facade.
