Final Luminare

2ND Ideation - Luminare

I like the way my second light turned out but during A pelimenary critique, i was told that their was too much going. There were to many directions and focal points and it needed to be decreased down to one main feature not 3.

First Ideation-Luminare

I was inspired by the show the trees made and another luminar and i tried to do it myselft but i want t try out different ones as a scale model.

Design Research

Through my research i have descovered that i am inspirted my the glow of the light such as in the sunset and the glow of the moon. I want to use shape to articulate this glow of light so that the intensity is not that bright but the contrast the shapes make up against a wall creates a shadow of patterns from the luminare. Based on what shapes i use to articulate light, will determine how my luminare will be formed but my man focus at this point is what shapes create what type of patterns and how this glow may be either diffused withcolor (like the sunset) or white like the moon. These are both powerful light sources with a comforting subtlety to them. The website http://www.flos.it had alot of different shapes of lights that also inspired me in their hotel designs because i aspire to one day do hospitality design. Right now i am playing around with matt board, blasa wood, and fabric paper as possible materials,.. we' see where that takes me.

Dialog Analysis (peer review)

October 28th was peer review day our our Dialog Projects. I analyzed the intergration project by Corry and Ebony's big and small project. I did small sketches of them shown below.

The intergration project interlocked the base with the bristol board cards and sticks to creat two spaces. This was the project that stood out to me that define the two spaces. The spaces themselves were equivalent to one another and their is an even distribution of card to sticks 3:4. Compared to the Big and small Dialog project both of the stuctures seperate and repeat space to create the same pattern. Except the big and small dialog recreated the 2nd space in a smaller model on a plain base. Each of their forms were different but in the end were similar in how the mimiced their spaces and made them equivalent.

DIALOG

So far this is the most difficult project i have had yet! I had no clue what i was going to do, how to define space or what my model was going to look like. At the last min a wake up with a dream of what i want my space to mimic and thought "HOVERING". my parti/collage defined what i was trying to creat i just didnt know how to get there because unlike the unity project we could only fold the bristol board cards once. Definatley i stuggle no ifs ands or buts about it, but i did it !

Shadow Boxes

We took our Junk Drawer Drawings and turned them in to shadow boxes with the junk inside of them. We did this by creating a horizon line and vanishing point. The class varied by shading their boxes or hatching the i was one of those students who shaded.
