Progress

8/03/2011
Today was initiated to model making. Before that, research on the Bordeaux House were presented. Good information, interesting photographs. As discussed, the time came to start modeling. The group brought all the equipment needed to model make but the only materials missing were white card.... which is the key material.

Instead of model making, we gathered and planned how the topography was going to be built out of card and the many queries we had were answered. Nothing was made today and the progress furthered on towards the weekends.

Below is an image of the initial stage of the contours.



As the foam board and white paper was pasted and completely stuck down on top of each other, we found out that we were missing a few contours. Therefore we had to rip everything we had done so far apart and to start from the initial stage once more.




The partially completed topography of the site. The rest of the contours being located on the sides have purposely not been done; to allow room for the ground floor to later integrate into the site to form a 'cave-like' structure.
