Montage-it Workshop 3 Week 1

Montage-it Introduction:

This workshop is less related to the first two workshops, but is equally as important and its process equally and invaluable in learning different types of communications. The lesson learnt in this module is less to do with the representing techniques for architectural concepts and more to do with developing and reinventing the concept itself, an important lesson and idea which the first two workshops introduced to me about. 

Using Eduardo Chillada's artwork 'Aldikatu II' I imagined and developed the following concepts:

• light and dark
• use of angles
• interior and exterior spaces
• juxtaposition of ideas
• conversation (relationship) between ideas

Aldikatu II

Construction of a concept model:

Using the keywords (above) I constructed a concept model out of balsa wood.

I constructed the model with the use of different angles in mind. The lightness in the colour of balsa juxtaposes against the dark shadows which the different angles cast and compliment the grain of the wood.

The slits and openings questions the definition of internal and external spaces.
