VENTURI SKETCH

T h i s e x e rc i s e w a s t h e f i r s t I u n d e rtook outside of studio time. At this point, I was completely untaken by the brief, and felt the need to kickstart any sort of passion. T h e a i m o f t h i s e x e rc i s e w a s t o re a l i s e w h a t a b o u t t h e b r i e f I d i d n ’t like. I had always associated the Motel with Route 66, and American G o o g i e A rc h i t e c t u re .

REFLEKTIONS CONVERGENCE. The most intruiging part of the brief was, to me, being given the opportunity to design a single space which could serve as the hub f o r t h re e v e r y d i ff e re n t d i s p e r s e d i n t e re s t g ro u p s . The exploration of this theme became the focus of my design intent, a n d n a t u r a l p h e n o m e n a w e re u s e d as inspiration.

T h e d i ff i c u l t i e s i n v o l v e d i n d e s i g n i n g for the car immediately begin to make me consider the banality of designing for a form of transport which will likely not be dominant in use (particularly in this part of the c i t y ) f o r m u c h l o n g e r. This encourages me to look at the p ro c e s s o f a p p ro x i m a t i o n - I l o o k e d in to several ways of making a constructable object, but this manner was one which appealed to me g re a t l y. I c o u l d p i c t u re t h i s m o n o l i t h i n c o n c re t e , s e r v i n g a s b o t h a tombstone, and a celebration of t h e m o t o rc a r, c e n t r a l t o t h e b u i l d ing.
