Exp3: The landscape

Located in the Seorak Mountain, Yong-ah-jang-sung is identified by its pointy, teeth-like tips.

The environment being developed in crysis.

The architecture and image captures

Without walls, space is mediated between the structure and the environment.

The vital connection between the interior and the exterior. Exploring continuity of space and separation of it between the interior and exterior through voids and other implied barriers rather than walls.

The night time slightly hazes the clear distinction of exterior spaces. 

The landscape

I used the hilly, mountainous landform because I thought it was appropriate in exploring notions of separation without the use of walls whilst also creating a meaningful connection between the landscape and the building.

36 custom textures

The 36 custom textures from light to dark

Textures used in the model

The 'medium' texture used for a fluid sense of movement when travelling through the space.

The 'dark' texture for a dense, earthly feel that provides a balance between "continuity to the exterior environment" and "the distinction between spaces of the exterior and interior".

The 'light' texture to "soak" the occupants into the building from the environment.

"Electroliquid Aggregation"

3: Continuity of space within the building and to the exterior

4: Wall-less separation (implied separation)

Electroliquid aggregation:

3 + 4: Implied, wall-less separation of continuity 

(separation of space within the building and to the exterior) 

6 combined axonometrics

1) Form follows landscape + Invisible structure

2) "Mu": Concept of nothingness + Framing views of the landscape

3)Continuity of space within the building and to the exterior + Wall-less separation

The 12 individual axonometrics

1. Form follows landscape

2. "Mu": concept of nothingness (fragile transience)

3. Continuity of space within the building and to the exterior

4. Wall-less separation

5. Invisible structure

6. Framing view of the landscape
