Project 1 :-0
My structure found in nature is a mushroom as you can see above but trying to turn this into a portable single person dwelling but not letting is take the form of a mushroom or an umbrella is turning out to be a bit of a challenge , but that is architecture right . ... So let’s take a journey on my discovery of nature's architecture. Please any comments, tips or ideas would be greatfully appreciated thank you.
Unit D 2006-2007
Project 1.
Structural growth:
Portable Single Person Dwelling
What can structure provide for spatially on a small scale?
We will test this through the development of a shelter for
one. This dwelling should take in account the varied
possibilities of site location and the temporal realities of
existing in them.
AIM:
Take a structure found in nature as a starting point for the
development of a portable single person dwelling.
The project requires the making and testing of materials and
material systems. Across the scales of 1:10 – 1:1
SITE:
Is it for the city or the country? Or Both?
SPACE / FUNCTION REQUIRMENTS:
Basic needs for survival. What does an individual require in
a dwelling? For you to elaborate further!
