Progress and fresh feedback

Last Friday I was able to have a talk with David Hartwell about my library. I got loads of new ideas and standpoints about the project. We talked about the exits of the building, lighting, construction methods and materials. I got so many good points and reminders about how to design a space. I'm truly thankful for that talk. So, inspired by that talk I continued my modelling and added another lift and staircase to the library. 

      I also started to 3D-model my room divider, I hope I get it done on Monday at school so I can add it to my library. 

For the new staircase I had to find out about the dimensions for strecher in case of an energency. Photo is from Finnish Construction Knolidge -files.

3D

Full steam ahead!

On Monday I finally got an idea about the legs and the frame of the room divider. Next step is the 3D-modelling. The library is getting ready too. I'm in a stage where I'm choosing the furniture, soon I'll be ready for rendering the images and a panorama file...

Towards the unknown

One of my aims here is to learn some new 3D-modelling program. Today I tried to get hang of 3ds Max with poor results. I need to watch some tutorials from Youtube...

An idea from a football match

Yesterday was a productive day in my work. However I felt a bit insecure about my wall materials so I was happy to go a Leeds United football game and come up with an idea. I find my inspiration from everyday life so I wasn't surprised when I found my inpiration for a wall material from the seats of the stadium which created this interesting pattern that reminded me of a roof panels that I had seen in Finland. It's fun to solve problems when you're not deliberately solving them.
