Experimenting with my project - Class task

-

 This week's task was to experiment with new ways to improve our project. Since I was having a few problems with my design and the structure of it I thought I could develop that more with this task. While talking with my tutor on advice for the towers, Wassily Kandinsky and Tom Fruin were an inspiration for how I would change the design. First of all, I am going to change the shape of the towers from circles to polygons and then the whole window design which was free circled shape/lines, to squares and rectangles like pixels. I am going to pull and push some of them into the wall and out so it won't be just a straight wall with shapes. I am also changing my colour scheme by using more coloured walls and windows. 





This a visual of how I'm gonna use the new idea on the walls with the newly shaped towers.


This was a building that also inspired the new idea.

    Talk more about Tom Fruin and his inspirations - a post on his work is necessary as he is a major inspiration for this project now.

Week 5 further research

 In week 5 of planning, I'm doing some more research. Today I'm researching Rem Koolhaas, a Dutch architect who is known for his gravity-defying structures. His innovative and futuristic style has been setting standards for years, he thinks that "Terms like city, street, identity, and architecture are things of the past. The past is too small to live in". One of his famous works is the "De Rotterdam" building, this is a multifunctioning building, (a great work to look up to since my project revolves around multifunctional requirements as well), he describes his work as a "vertical city".                                                                                      The De Rotterdam  This building is located  at  Wilhelminapier in Rotterdam, he design...

 This is my process of creating my boards for my final art portfolio project, using Photoshop.  First I created a new document by clicking on 'New File', then 'print', 'A3', and chose the landscape mode. after my page was open I went on 'Unsplash' to find a related background.  Then I clicked on 'File' that's at the top left corner, 'open' and 'on your computer' and chose the image that I downloaded.  After that, I selected the image with the 'rectangular marquee' tool which is the first icon on the left toolbar and then clicked on 'edit', 'copy' and then went to my first page, clicked on 'edit' again and pasted it. Then from the right tool bar I lowered the opacity to 40% which is located at the 'layers' category.  Then I followed the same steps with uploading my concept image and arranged the size and placement by clicking on the 'move' tool and then clicking on 'show trans...

We started by thinking of different creative ideas then we had to sketch them on a piece of paper , the first thing that i thought of was a series of elevator pictures.The reason behind it is that lately i've been having some elevator problems at my accommodation building so that is what i sketched , a picture of the sketch is included below . In the first shot is the picture of the elevator with the doors closed, the second one the doors are starting to open ,the third ,the doors are completely open still working normally . Then in the fourth shot a person is in the frame walking to towards the elevator , in the fifth the person is in the elevator and then lastly the sixth shot it is supposed to be the elevator starting to break ,the doors not working and the red lig...
