Hi Team,
Have had a pretty ordinary, very uninspiring couple of weeks spending mush of my time working on a nothing interior group assignment. So where am i in terms of my skyscraper? turns out touching the earth lightly has become a bit to mainstream, and whilst something i believe in (if not for the environment but also more literally for urban design), a recent conversation has lead me back down the path of the automobile.
I'm proposing a skyscraper which takes ideas from the car. think Radiator cooling system complete with ram air, think wind spoilers, grills, wind dams, exhaust vents, carbon fibre, and clean smooth lines. The ides is for a car manufacturing facility complete with; supercar museum, test track, space for design work, and sales, as well as residential for workers, designers, and clients.
I started by modeling the form of Ferrari's Enzo and breaking it down into parts which may be useful spaces. But this just ended up becoming a giant car wreck. Add a few stories car manufacturing plant on top of that and what you have looks more like Decepticon Headquarters. Wow couldn't have been more further from my initial ideas, but its a start, a useful exercise, even if it only taught me how to waste an entire day.
