Experiment Two

THE TWO CONCEPTS
Do the two concepts suggest a distinctive and significant approach to engaging with the theme the student has chosen? 

A rebellion from convention. (Utzon)

+

An appearance influenced by the activity. (Laplastrier)

=

Fusion of innovative design and effective arrangement.

THE 12 SKETCH AXONOMETRICS
Do the 12 sketch axonometrics communicate a distinctive and significant approach the student has taken with respect to each concept and their possible relationship to one of the themes? 

1. Architecture is not static, it keeps evolving.

2. A marriage of form and function.

3. An appearance influenced by activity. 

4. Changing perspective for the viewer. 

 5. A rebellion from convention.

6. Undefined Threshold.

THE 36 CUSTOM TEXTURES
Do the 36 custom textures demonstrate enquiry and experimentation with respect to ideas of light and shadow? 

THE IMAGE CAPTURES AND ARCHITECTURE 
Do the image captures demonstrate that the student has thought about the relative size of each element, what their proportions are, their orientation, how texture, colour and shadow map over their surfaces and how all of the above work together to establish the balance or otherwise of their scheme  

Rebelling from conventional positioning, the tram stop was placed close to the University Gym, unlike most which were placed by the University Mall.

During the day, a glass ceiling provides natural lighting, and at night, lamps on the corner of each level do the job.

Dark texture on the walls and custom made timber texture (with medium texture) on the floor of tram stop. Different levels focusing on better distribution of people.

Besides stairs, ramps were also added for accessing the platform of the the tram stop.

Furthermore, the ceiling is slightly elevated so air flow, inside the stop, occurs - assuring natural ventilation.
