Final project - New model



Previously I made a final model, I felt that it was smaller than I imagined and didn't link to the title of my project. Now I have made a new model which I feel has a stronger meaning

Final Project

This project is a continuation of the collision project. I chose to do this because I Believe I could have had a better outcome. Although I did enjoy doing this project I wanted to another type of model.
This time instead of using several types of cultures collided I only used two, which are Indian architecture and modern architecture.                                             
Using Indian patterns on modern buildings to make either a wall pattern or window

Responding to an event: Japans Tsunami 2011


 My response to an event was the tsunami that took place in Japan 2011 which was one of the strongest tsunamis that they had experienced.

My response was focused on the aftermath of the event which was the injured, homeless & anyone who needed help. The shape of the building is the shape of the area that was hit the most & clearly where more attention for help was needed. This building is at least 20ft high making sure that all the disaster wouldn't interfere with the inside of the building & the people who have already been through enough.

In total there are 3 of these building around the area.
Red area is the shape of the building & the area that was hit the most

Collision Project

As part of my collision project I had to collide two different objects, buildings, anything together. They could be opposite to each other or two completely different things that you wouldn't normally find as a combined model. My idea was to collide different types of cultures.

First model was Traditional Chinese architecture & modern architecture.
Second model to have a stronger development was Islamic & modern architecture.
Third model is an opposite of a small cottage with a mansion house gate.








My final model is a collision of all models that I made into one. It is a museum about different cultures, full of history facts & their traditions. It is placed in a popular tourists attraction for example Hyde Park.
