Modelling My Work Space - Stair & Ceiling

 Trialing different paper cuts/folds - specifically focusing on stairs to make a mezzanine in the space, and an interesting ceiling to go with it

Diagrams of my house + backyard section and plan








As my bedroom faces South-East, a large amount of sunlight is received in the afternoon, specifically on the bed side of the room. The purpose of making a mezzanine in my room is to provide a large study space which I would predominately use after 12pm. So I decided to place the mezzanine on the bed side of the room to receive the afternoon sunlight.

100 Word Statement

Design Pitch This week I wrote a 100 word statement explaining my pitch for this project. Spatial Luminescence When a sleeping space is simple and private; when a study is light and dynamic; nothing else could make a more functional, yet comfortable space. In this, I investigated the ways to utilise the space’s scope through the room’s geometrics and to reinvent the roof’s capability to funnel substantial natural light inside. I met the objectives, as seen in my iterations, through a simple mezzanine extension, allowing for privacy in the sleeping-zone, while having a large break-out space above. Through light experimentations adapting into the final model, I achieved a dynamic rectangular series cut roof that allows for a large reflection of light. Thus, through the innovation of extension and roof typology, the perfect light and simple room was born.

WK05 Tutorial Model Making Activities Modelling My Work Space My room modelled out of paper My room modelled out of cardboard I found working with card a lot easier than normal paper as the sturdiness made it easier to put in the windows and the rooms entrance door. Also it was much easier to put together as it would not fall apart like the paper would. My room made from cardboard and with the addition of a geometric ceiling I found working with cardboard a lot easier than paper as the sturdiness of the board made it easier to put together and add in the detailing of the veranda double door and the rooms entrance door.   When changing/adding to the work space, I wanted to do something creative with the ceiling. I was drawn to 'X-form span' folding technique because of its intricate shapes and it's ability to morph and bend into new forms. By adding this pattern to the ceiling...
