Evolution of the Plan


The review was helpful but I am struggling with some of the comments I was given...now that I think about the project does seem to be lacking clarity between whether the bones should deb above or below ground. The contemplation space will remain under ground so it seems by default the bones should all be above ground..the next problem I encounter is "can there be less stuff or can the site as a whole be smaller"? and since there is not much in the long sections can there be more or should it just shrink? I don't know the answer to this..in my investigation today there definitely shouldn't be more stuff because it becomes too busy. what i like about the first plan is the proportions and spaces created between where the boxes are stored so I'm at a crossroad where i don't know where to go..tomorrow will be a day of further investigation so hopefully things will feel more comfortable.

Combining Fabricating and Carving Spaces



This was the first try at figuring out how to manipulate my previous design to be both fabricating and carving. This model does not include the next step of linking certain spaces through fabrication. Those will be added on Sunday when I have more time to think them through. 










 I was having a lot of trouble with the drawings and thinking about the site as a whole without seeing it all, so more drawings will come after the model is finished on Sunday
