BRIDGE & SCHOOL

The bridge is vital to enter the school premises and each room. It is what connected the school together. The bridge is curved however almost linear. Particularly in my bridge and school, there is much experimentation with curves and the nature of how they will create a space. This idea is inspired by Herzog de Meuron plan (shown below) and by the random lines and curves that are seen on batik patterns. It is spontaneous and has an organic feel to it. This is how I interpreted the pattern to design the school and bridge. I wanted an organic and natural feel to the final appearance so I detailed the school and bridge with flowers stemmed off curves that run off the edges of the walls. The non-linear appearance of the final model allows you to wonder how spaces are created. I also wanted the spaces to be open so only some parts of the building has some walls, however they are transparent to allow light and still provide the desire of the building to be an open space. The creation of the building has been appropriated from patterns seen from Indonesia culture, but it is then manipulated in a way that respects the culture and does not steer away or represent something different of what it really is to avoid negative cultural critique as this is what my theory has recently been stated in the previous mash-up. This way it allows the building to stand for itself with some connection to the Indonesian culture and its natural surroundings.

ELEVATOR FOR THE DEAN

The elevator for the dean is more intimate due to its smaller scale compared to the elevator for the students. This too also plays with curves as a stretched box curves and wraps around the entire elevator. This offers a strange yet interesting appearance ; also inspired from spontaneous/ curvy lines of batik patterns. The texture also plays with the same idea of curves and circle to connect to the appearance of the elevator.

ELEVATOR FOR THE STUDENTS

The elevator for the students plays with curves and tessellated patterns, one that resembles of batik, however it appropriates from different styles of batik and manipulates them to make a space. For the texture, I used a weave pattern to somewhat connect to the tessellated squares. The varied extruded squares plays allows for seats and groups to interact with each other. It has a much larger space to cater for 100 students compared to the deans elevator.

DEVELOPED FOLLY WITH TEXTURE

The folly is derived from the two point perspective F shape drawing (shown below). The vine going through and around the folly was decided to allude to my theory of cultural appreciation and appropriation. The vines were inspired by batik patterns, an organic/ natural pattern traditionally and culturally derived from Indonesia. The folly is not an exact representation of the batik pattern but rather a minor appropriation of its traditional pattern. The appearance of the folly will also aid the representation of the organic/natural behaviour of the school and bridge.
