Creating my boards process / results - Project Development

- June 05, 2023

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...

This is my 3D floor plan process. To create this I used Homestyler and created the ground floor which is the reception along with some sitting areas. First, I opened a new document and created the room by clicking on "create room" in the top left corner. Then I added two sliding doors for the entrance.

Then I added full wall windows because I couldn't figure out how to create the triangle ones. (Later in the process I figured it out and included them) I found the windows from the same category. After the base was done I started placing furniture to test out the placements. For that I went to the "model library" setting which is the fourth icon on the left side, and then clicked on "catalog", there were different furniture categories, I mostly used the "office...

Week 5 further research

- November 03, 2022

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...
