Brainstorming&Daily Creation 

 

3D Model

I chose to use toothpick and hot melt glue as the main materials of my model

. At the beginning, I made a house similar to a chicken nest, but after thinking, I think this building is not suitable to be placed in ISB or as my final work (because it is not strong enough, it is easy to break).

After some searching in the later stage, I saw many architects’ design works, which also inspired me. I chose to design my second work as a double-layer building.

The uneven roof is full of design sense, and several toothpicks pieced together to form a building frame. Therefore, I chose to make it very abstract because then the model and my drawing will all be very flexible to change some details.

Questions&Responses

Q: What is the purpose of this building?

A: This is an art gallery&rest area for all ISB students (Also teachers and workers).

Q: Can the sun shine get into the building?

A: Yes, I designed a lot of ventilation places. The main material of the building is glass, so the sun can shine in.

Q: What can students do inside?

A: Students can enjoy the artworks of their classmate, also they can chat and eat snacks in it, or sit in it to discuss group activities, study…

What did I learned from this project

  • When I chose not to use the first model and redesign it, I learned that we should not be afraid to try new designs and ideas, but also have a clear plan for our works, which will reduce the probability of failure
  • When I started drawing, I found that we should not only consider the appearance of the building, but also consider its functionality and use
