Drawings (Poche)

Above are my Poche for my plans and sections. The plans highlight the light/dark differences in each of the three key spaces while the sections display firstly, the site and its relation to the spaces; and secondly the form of the linking spaces to the three main spaces. Also light dark relation is shown in these.

Drawings (axinometric)

Above are the axinometrics for my three key spaces: ISOLATION(a bedroom), PREPARATION/HUMAN FORM (an open studio)and THE DAY IN WAIT/INTERIOR-EXTERIOR( a resting room) relation. I decided to draw 3 axinometrics as the three spaces are individual in their own right, with their own distinct independant forms. It is the journey through these seperate spaces that make the building a whole.

The painting:

A morning in the City- Edward Hopper

Progression:

Here is basically my progression of logic in the exploration of the painting. Firstly i started out with three key themes to develop my narrative. The lady and her routine, the feeling of isolation; and preperation for the day that waits. From this i drew the narrative:

'A woman stands in bare ISOLATION, upon a cell of a room, PREPARING for the DAY that waits'.

The highlighted words were to be the basis of my 3 spaces. I decided on a sloped site to give a sense of progression; and layed out the three buildings according to the painting. This was worked out as the isolation far back, the woman and here preparation centre right; and the relation to the exterior or the day bottom left (at the window point).

From there i developed my three spaces according to the feel they are meant to evoke; and further developed the linking space between the three spaces. At image 5 you see a rudementary version of my final model.
