"Let there be Light!" Project

Final Outcomes - Let there be Light! Project

“Let there be light!”seeks to communicate the importance of light and natural surroundings in creating comfortable living spaces. I took advantage of the existing architectural elements of the site, my bedroom, being on the second floor and it’s pleasing view of the leafy surrounding neighbourhood by incorporating a balcony and an additional east-facing window in my models. As evident in the lighting + photography exercise, the manipulation of the technical elements of form, lighting and shape transformed the area into a more open, liveable space. Thus, I was able to communicate both the built environment and my own design aesthetic.

Bedroom Model Studio Activities

Bedroom Model Studio Activities Analysing the Site Dimensions: 3m x 3.4m x 2.6m\Length (along window) x Width x Height Window wall is northern facing and shelving wall is eastern facing. Paper Model of Bedroom Scale : 1: 30 Iterated Model of Bedroom Model 1: (Scale 1: 20) Added a veranda and window to the room and included roofing in the model. Model 2: (Scale 1: 30) I added a feature wall. I also experimented with balsa wood as a medium. d d Model 3: (Scale 1: 30) Polished version of Model 1 using balsa wood.

Iterative Model of Bedroom

Iterative Model of Bedroom SCALE 1:20 I made a refined iteration of the paper + cardboard models made during week five and six. Included is a human figure to indicate scale. Photographing Your Model Exercise I dramatised the lighting and experimented with different angles to better understand how the space responded to light. I placed particular emphasis on shining the light through the side window as it corresponds to the east facing wall in my room and would similarly receive direct sunlight in the mornings.
