Experiment 2 - Lumion Week 2 & Two Design Concepts for the Stop


Sketch up to Lumion







Based on sketch:




From 3D Model to the light rail stop: 


The rectangular prism in the middle represents the light rail and it is surrounded by the two components. One of the components evolves into a hollowed-out ring (which is the basic part of the overpass) and is developed into a cylinder. This fits Toyo Ito's design concepts, making the surface as the element of design, as well as material, face and structure. Also, the shape is developed and transformed through the interactions with people who are involved in the project. 

The other component is rotated and replicated by its centre point to create a frame for the light rail stop. This fits into Luis Barragan's design concepts, the use of right angles and create space within these shapes.

Together, the two architects' design concepts develop into the theme of my light rail stop: technology. The technology of evolving and transforming that forms the basic idea behind my design. Everything happens within the frame of technology, the light rail and the people who interact with the architecture.
