Feedback from Week 11 Presentation

The arrangement of my slide was not good, I should have placed my twinmotion perspectives that I generated at the start of my presentation because they were my strongest images.

More detailing for my design:

Add more people to the generated imagery

Show different uses of each floor

Did stuff in the tower come from the landfill?

Think about the site and how possibly in the future the pollution from all the built up waste could affect the inhabitants of the tower.

Feedback from Week 6 Interim

How are people living in the space

Have you thought about the possibility of jobs being in the community

Trapped by their assigned jobs

Slums, rubbish, junk

Demolish low income

What will the city look like?

Have you thought about transport?

Material used is good

Labyrinth type feel to the tower

Possibly using a range of transport techniques such as stairs, ladders or pulley systems to travel up and down the tower.

Feedback from pinning up my tower perspectives

‘Speed dating’ exercise

Tower like structures created from stacking containers on top of each other, these were drawn by classmates based off of how I described my design concept to them.

Waitangi Park Site Visit

I visited Waitangi Park on a Sunday morning and saw a lot of children at the skate park located right next to where I took these photos. In terms of the space that is in these photos not a lot of people used this space, and if they did it was only to travel through the play ground behind to the skate park.

Sketches based on the location of Waitangi Park which is located in the city center & waterfront of Wellington, this results in a high housing price, I wanted to create a contrast of dwellings between what dwellings could potentially be in the future if they were located in Waitangi Park and my slum towers that are located near Wellington’s southern landfill away from the city. I wanted to use predominately windows for my designs because it is a symbol of wealth and it usually seen on most of the extravagant buildings all around the world.

My poster came out alright the poster pdf on the computer was a lot brighter than the final result. However the darkness of the poster ties in to the whole dark dystopian scenario of my project. However I would have liked it if it was a bit lighter because 2 of my components that I have on the poster, as well as 2 of my perspectives getting lost in the darkness of the poster.

Changing to 1:100 Scale Model

I had to change my model scale to 1:100 because the previous scale was simply too small to laser cut, the cut out pieces just fell through the laser cutting bed after i picked up the piece of mdf.

Series of rectangles taken from dimensions of a 6.1m container and scaled down to 1:100

Updated my laser cutting file, i’m going to cut circles in the corners of the rectangles and squares and then place steel rods into those openings

Final 1:100 Scale Model with the inner ring also scaled up to 1:100

Three different types of container shown here, the first type is of your usual container where people will use to live in, then there are 2 models showing the different ways that scaffolding will be present in the tower, one is of horizontal beams going across the length of a container and the other is of beams going upwards from the floor to the roof, the purpose of the scaffolding is to distribute the weight load from other containers if they were placed on top of the scaffolding.

Test renders from Twinmotion

Played around with the weather settings in twinmotion, I increased the smog all the way to 100% and made the weather rainy and windy. I also experimented with the time and added red lighting to create a no hope and dark feeling to the images.
