Final Submission



FileFront File:


My design for both scientist spaces was inspired by a compbination of the axonometrics displayed below.










Electroliquid Aggregation quote: "Mathematical Practices such as equations are considered boring. Geometric Figures however, and the materials that form these figures have a physical affect on the observer and the way they feel."


With the combination of my Electroliquid Aggregation quote and inspiration from my chosen axonometrics the spaces below were formed:



The image above displays the connection between my two spaces through a ramp symbolising the links and similarities expressed through my two chosen quotes by Stephen Hawkings and Florence Nightingale.



The Ramp



Hawking's space




The image above represents the entry to Stephen Hawkings space. The use of extruded blocks in the entry is to express his admiration to geometric shapes and the use of light is to emphasise the tactility of these geometric forms.

The image above represents Florence Nightingale's space. It illustrates the power of materials and how lighting and angling of geometric forms can enhance the affect of materials on the observer.

Alfie!
I chose to look at your UT2004 map because i thought your images look very interesting- i especially liked the image that shows the structure of your spaces. I thought your ramp was extraordinary! when you walk through it into the inside space it feels like it is enclosed but as you walk back out you realise it is open to the outside! The textures you chose to use were very distinctive too in particular the one in Nightingale's lab. I also really liked the way you have forced the player to walk along a sloped (to the side) ramp. almost unoticeably. and therefore a sophisticated link back to your quote. my only suggestion is to leave out any images that are taken from the editor. Other than that it was great!
