Animation Begins

The tutors were clear in that we had to use our previous model and develop it from there. This week the main focus of our projects were on the interior space of the building, and using our made up word we had to design such a space.

                                                               EXLABRAUMISM

So basically i wanted to create a space in which people can work and also chill.

Rooms which are defined by their horizontality and verticallity.

My Word

We were asked to make up a word that would define our type of architecture. So that people in the future would look at my architecture and classify it under this new term.

Looking at my previous projects i looked at the 'Raumplan' idea, and also the idea of a labyrinth. Also i touched on some minimalistic structures and slightly Art Nouveau. Yet i really like the look of expressive architecture.

So if i tried to combine Raumplan, Expressive architecture and labyrinth together...

Possible outcomes could be..:

Raumrinsive, Explabyaum, Labyraupress, Raumlabypressism, Labyrampressism, Exlabraumism.
Rauprinture, Labraunsiveture, Exraumrinthism.

Out of these i like Exlabraumism. This style would define how space is defined not by name but by the spacial qualities of both horizontal and vertical lengths, and the manner in which space is defined and arranged is in the form of a labyrinth. Meaning that the path of the interior and the exterior is more focused.

GIFTING

What it is to gift. The concept is a beautiful one, the act of giving something to another without the expectation of a gift in return.
A one way act that leaves both parties satisfied (most of the time).

For me personally i would like to choose the gift of happiness.

Since everyone on this planet wants to be happy in one form or another. Happiness can be seen as the ultimate goal of life, that one would spend a lot of years of ones life to study/work to be able to do what pleases one the most. In other words something that satisfies someone is actually making them happy.

This link is about how one becomes happy.

On the other hand this link is the christian view of how one becomes happy.

They are quite contradicting and depending on ones religious views one would agree to one or the other.

April's could not show me her video on the day, but told me to see it on her blog.

Her idea of a tunnel and a journey is from her past waking up project which she incorporated into this one.

She deals with the modern and the transition into nature, so that her office is in a more natural area.

She chose her area so that it wasn't too bush nor loud to emphasize her idea.
