Textures



These are my textures. Some are independent, others are developmental progressions

Hawkings






This is the space of hawkins. from the outside, its potential is not recognised but once inside the true granduer can be seen instantly. the small tunnel entrance highlights the space's monumentality. Especial attention was paid to the lighting.

Florence

From these draft Axos i selected the highlighted one because of it's interesting shape and open nature
This is an aerial shot showing the relationship between my axonemetric and the structure.


This is the ramp that links the meeting place to nightengales.



This is the inside of Nightengales room, light bright and suspended, open to the world and on the edge. this shows the no fear philosophy she possessed.

Hawkings and the Ramp




The Bride that runs horizontally from Nightengale's Space (left) to Hawkings (right) is broken and unwalkwable. How ever a ramp runs from above, to beneath then above once more via the meeting place (center). This symbolises Hawkings challenge in life and his overcoming of obstacles as well as providing an interesting aesthetic.

When asked, 'What did God do before he created the universe?' St. Augustine didn´t reply, 'he was preparing Hell for people who asked such questions.' Instead, he said that time was a property of the universe that God created, and that time did not exist before the beginning of the universe.”
-Steven Hawkings
"I have noticed even people who claim everything is predestined, and that we can do nothing to change it, look before they cross the road.”

“How very little can be done under the spirit of fear”
