Spring Semester 2020 Final year B.Arch
1.2.1 Story telling through the overlay between quantitative and qualitative analogy.
Narrative The Painting here is looked as a Precinct with a Control line dividing the precinct into two opposite stories. The first story is a stable and simple expression due to presence of a dominant and only one line extending through the dominant. Thus, we call it the story of Simplicity. The second story is a mayhem of elements. It has two colors having equal areas. There are lines that are not relating to anything. Thus, we call it the story of Chaos. The only line, part of both the stories, connecting them is the Story connector. The story connector together with the control line makes 4 rooms giving individual spaces for each color to move. Room of red & black in story of simplicity and room of blue & yellow in story of chaos. The only subdivision which is a part of both the stories is the common or neutral subdivision. It is small yet an important part of the story. Some fixed aspects (CONSTRAINTS) (1) The control line (2) The location of the colors (3) Area covered by the colors (4) Position of the common subdivision Some variable aspects (PARAMETERS) (1) The story connector (2) Proportions of all the rectangles (3) Number of divisions in the story of chaos (4) Area of black divisions
