endgame 06 - perception views - draft

1. view from carnaby/ beak street intersection... the bentley enters the building

(better quality render of facade and portcullis that also incorporates the visible interior brick walls will replace this)

2. view from the lobby: maurice ascends the stairs

(needs to be re-rendered with internal portcullis, materials and lighting)

3. Client interfacing within executive bar

(I used the 3d print model for the perforations in this view and the next hence they are overscaled and need to be replaced by actual bricks in the final render)

4. the sweatshop works on...

(again needs to be rendered with actual bricks along this surface and have proper figures photoshopped in)

all these views are just a draft to give a sense of what I would like to capture in the final sequence but please let me know whether any of them need to be modified further than what I have aforementioned / if they are not effective yet.

Im currently editing (01) strategic overview and (02) becoming habitat. I have also finished the coded sectional model to be printed tomorrow which hopefully will not collapse despite the cantilevers and perforate walls. Will bring all drafts of drawings printed to scale on tuesday.

TS brick studies

Here are some of the pages I have been working on so far for the TS tutorial yesterday.

Now I am working on creating an instruction manual of how I created my foil models and their various effects. (I will post this later when I finish it) By drawing the effects of the models, I hope it will help me to start tackling my ground floor intervention over the weekend.

MK ARCHITECTS SHORT-LISTED FOR THE BRICK AWARD 2010
- July 2009

Marc Koehler Architects has been nominated for the "Fourth Wienerberger Architecture Award - Brick Award 2010". Out of 250 entries, 45 projects have been nominated.

Brick Options for 3d Printing

option1: brick size the same as Tate Modern extension, converging on either side, projecting and receding illusions

option 2: brick size the same as Tate Modern extension, converging on either side, projecting and receding illusions, multiple layers

option 3: standard brick size, varying angles of brick to create texture

option 4: standard brick, notched intersection of facets to avoid making 'special' bricks

option 5: standard brick, notched intersection of facets, varying bond spacing to create illusions of depth and counterdepth

please give feedback on which models should be printed on Monday and how they should be modified (if necessary). So far I think models 1, 3 and 5 should be printed although 3 seems too haphazard and too small a fragment as it currently exists.

please also advise on scale. I thought of printing at 1:50 but in the case of option 5, this scale may be too small to be legible so it might have to be 1:20.
