Experimental sketch and Development of my project idea
Today I made an experimental sketch of my project idea. To do this, I used Procreate, several textures and photo references that convey the atmosphere inside the building. In this sketch, I developed two space of the building: the forest zone and the sea zone.
Sea zone
So that the person inside does not feel that the natural environment is artificial, I decided to hide the walls using the image of the cave inside. For the shape of the building, I needed something that repeats the shape of the cave - narrows at the top and at the same time has a geometrically stable shape. I decided that a pyramid is suited for this. Inside, can be made the texture of the stone by slightly rounding the corners of the pyramid. So that the interior of the space was not too dark, I decided to add daylight by making holes in the pyramid. It should look like the sun's rays passing through the rocks. There should be enough holes so that the space will not too bright and not too dark. I also want to use the texture of the stone inside of a light colour. On the floor I plan to add sand with a small slope and a little water (no more than 20 cm of depth) with seaweed to create the scent of the sea. Also, the air humidity should be increased in this room. I will study and describe the technologies that allow to use air humidity and sand with water inside the building in my next research post.
Forest zone
For the forest zone, I also used a pyramid just turned upside down. Entering the inside, the person will feel that he is in the gorge. The walls will look like the slopes of the rocks and there will be plants. The roof will be transparent or maybe I will use LED panels that will look like daylight. The main thing is that the ceiling looks as similar as possible to the daytime sky. Also in this space will be pile thin trees with a small root system so that it can be really used inside the building. Maybe I also will use artificial rain in this space, which will occasionally and in a small amount. I haven't decided on many technological solutions yet, and as I mentioned, this will be my next step.
Okay good to see this on here. The idea is really developing, but we really need to see some development of your overall designs, this is in your marking criteria.
