Ornamentation Description

The ornamentation on project 2 pool building has changed slightly the so ornamentation has a more alien feeing to it and that is it invading the site and the pool building. it is designed to create a feeling that is slightly off to make the building impact on the users. the invading ornamentation is meant to look like merging with the building etc.

Building Model progress slow

The 3D SketchUp model I am building is taking far longer than expected I have what I want it to look like in my head but its taking a lot of time to get it all out. but here is a progress shot of the model

 the ornamention can be seen on the roof of the buidling it will extend out to the angled protal frame hopefully...

Progress

overcoming my design block i finally got something to come out of my brain...  just a progress shot at the moment, but gives an idea of the internal sturcture, whiile it looks similar to the building that are already there... the ornamentation i have in mind for the exterior of the builing will create a contrast to what is there

 a portal frame design has been chosen  due to the size of the span required and the portals will be glue laminated arches which are able to span these lenghts easily.

Ornamentation

An example of the ornamentation i may use albiet the final will have more layers as this looks rather like the Water cube from Bejing but it gives an idea of what i would like to achive, the blue willl be clear glass and the grey will be aluminium etc.
