Experiment Two - Peer Reviews

Assessment Submission: Experiment 2 - The Bridge

Experiment 2 Submission: The Bridge




The Theory



'The circulation of users through, within, and around architecture should aspire to mimic 
that of blood within veins; providing a path for the architecture; the person, the body, to travel 
through space and time, ever adapting to its users needs, 
however unforeseeable that future might be.'







Sketchup and Lumion Environments

The Moving Elements

The following link will take you to two short animations showing the two moving elements in my submission: the bridge with connecting, suspended studio spaces, and the wind turbines embedded vertically as a feature wall.

Ex. 2, Wk 3: Textures, 6 each on linear, rotational and scalar translation, and 6 each on (three words that help my understanding of movement) communicative, functional, and repetitive


Linear textures







Rotational textures 






Scalar textures 








Communicative textures 







Functional textures 






Repetitive texture









Textures applied in SketchUp Model Environment

I chose areas to apply my textures that would show significance to the new architectures
connection with existing buildings and thoroughfare; the entryway at ground height to lecture spaces (first image), the lofted stairs providing avenue from the roundhouse and squarehouse
central walkway (second image); and the proposed entry and exit from the
upper level of the squarehouse (third image).

Distinct and significant theory relating to movement using 3-5 words from previous article


'The purpose of the circulation of users through, within, and around architectural elements 
should - ideally - mimic that of blood within veins; providing a path for the architecture, or the body, to travel through space and time, ever adapting to its users needs, 
however unforeseeable that future might be.'
