Stage 03.06 continued
With your spaces identified, begin to dissect them individually. Perform operations previously completed in studio, and as described in class today. Remember to be careful in doing this; we are coming up on the end of the semester, and we do not want to add more objects, as much as we want to break up the scale of the current objects. Use rules to develop the objects, and write them down. You should use these to explain your process when we are next in class. You will be asked to show this sequence much like in stage 02, so you will also need to save a progression of files showing the various steps taken.
This is an exercise in human scale, formal clarity, and issues of effect (variable levels of transparency and translucency). It is also an exercise in identifying and developing pattern, and knowing when/how to identify or accentuate a break or end in the patterns developed.
When you are operating on the spaces, think about what it would be like to be within them, and the original intent of the space.
For next class, you need to have made these developmental adjustments to one (1) of your previously defined spaces. This needs to be completed in both study and digital model formats, and each should include developed floor plates for that particular area.
