3 ideas for final art project

1. 3 Ideas
Brief: To design and create a 3D model of an information centre for the
public inspired by constructivism.

2. 1st Idea
• My 1st idea was inspired by the
use of squares and rectangles in
constructivist and supremacist
art.
• I wanted to rotate layers of
squares and have the shapes rise
to create the illusion of
movement within the
architecture,
• Another influence was the use of
parabolas by Santiago Calatrava,
where I tried to incorporate the
negative space.
• I made a model to show the
twisted form, out of foam board.
• What I would do next would
be to exaggerate some more
angled forms attached to the
design or maybe intersect
some long and sharp shapes
to contrast against the flow
of the design.

3. 2nd Idea
• This idea was mainly
influenced the shapes and
forms of the sculptures and
artwork of Malevich.
• To start my thinking for this
idea I cut up some wood
blood similar to the shapes
used in his paintings.
• The I tried to layer the blocks
with a sense of direction.
• These cubic shapes are
something I would like to
incorporate into my final
design.
• What I plan to do next is add
to the form by inserting
curved cuts and shapes to
again contrast, which is
inspired by Oskar Schlemmer.

4. 3rd Idea
• My 3rd idea is a synthesis
between the last two ideas.
• To add to the design I would
look more into artwork by
Piero Della Francesca and
Oskar Schlemmer, and also
look into some traditional
Bauhaus architecture which is
inspired by constructivism.
• What I look to do is contrast
some linear geometrics with
cylindrical and spherical
forms.
