this thursday i was told to look at exsisting glass buildings because my ideas of making a smaller brick train stop would have probly detracted too much from the original site, the idea then was to make a see through glass box of sorts. the artist kate woods (someone i studied last year for yr13 painting) does some great artworks that inspired me using triangles to make 3 dimensional shapes.
also as i googled for glass building this building came up which really took my eye, although it looks quite similar to crystals and i think i prefer to make more abstracted shapes as to not be instantly recognizable as to not be the focus but instead leave the old railway station as the only recognizable element.
From this i made a model out of mostly equilateral triangles and then as it spill over the edge using less similar triangular shapes.
so this is the start of my design process but now i think i have to work in with using these shapes to create a thought out space not just a random allotment of shapes. TO THE DRAWING BOARD!!
