Submission 1- equus

DESIGN 1 - You'll find that when you cut an object they often do not hold their original shape. The cut pieces will shift, twist, flake and appear to have changed size once they start to fall. This design tries to convey these ideas of object configuration through the process of shifting, twisting, and pulling. This has been done by wrapping a solid object around a glass tube. The object wrapping the glass tube was once a intergrated with the glass tube.. but once been cut it lost its shape and it shifted, twisted and pulled away from the tube structure. DESIGN 1

DESIGN 2- This design explores the ideas of a open cut wound. Once been cut by a sword, the cut isnt just one line representing a cut but it opens up creating an oval shape. Roof structure is an oval shape that peals up.. the pealing represents the lifting and swelling of a wound. The oval shape of the roof assists the curves of the walls as the walls follow the form of the roof. The wall extends out creating a single long wall.. this represents the bleeding when the blood runs out the edge of the cut. On one side of the building the walls overlap. This comes from the idea of the layering and healing process of a flesh wound.

DESIGN 3- this design shows the idea of cutting and slicing. The glass represents whats been taken away through slicing.. and the solid is whats been lift. It also shows the instability of cutting an object as the solid areas have been pushed in to show the movement and shifting of the object.

DESIGN 4- Once again the design is exploring the idea of cutting into the facade. The building has been seperated by been cut in the middle and the negative been replace with glass. The units 1,2,3 and 4 also show the cutting of the facade, by a repitition of slicing down the length of the wall.
