This is one of my chosen textures that I have incorporated into my sketchup model.

Spaces with Stairs

This is my original idea, seen in a section, and this one isn't developed as far as the other one because I have had trouble constructing the stairs connecting both the upper and lower levels due to the curved surfaces.

These two are sections for my second space/s.

Great Architecture

I watched a documentary about Frank Lloyd Wright last year which looked at this house in depth, along with Wright's life, and thinking about this homework reminded me of this particular house. The cantilever looks as if it is about to fall away into the stream, and interestingly, the lower balcony started to droop towards the water a few years after it was completed, due to some miscalculations about where the weight would be supported. However, this was corrected and strengthened in the following years.

Something Beautiful?

This is a picture of a piece of music called "Extreme Makeover" that I am playing at the moment with the band that I am in. It is the test piece for the National Championships that we are going in on the Easter Weekend, and I have chosen it as my 'beautiful thing' because it's a little different from what most people would consider beautiful. Although it is extremely hard technically, it will hopefully sound amazing when we play it there. One of the most unique things about this piece is that during the middle a whole section of the band stops playing their instruments and plays beer bottles filled with water to exact notes, making it really different from most other band pieces.

Creative Work

This would be my best piece of creative work before coming to uni this year. It is a beach house that I had to design during Graphics Technology in year 10, and we used Vectorworks 10 to design it. This would definitely be my favourite design project during school, working around the constraints that were given to us and looking for a solution that we liked and could work around. I am looking forward to designing more complex things this year.
