To avoid the mistakes of the past and create a truely complex design, I decided it would first be important to discover the capapbilities of Google Sketch Up. The task requires abstract thinking and design, whilst most express this through curvature and parametric shapes, I decided it would be more interesting and appropriate(for the Kyza) if it was done geometrically. Inaccordance with my section I begun experimenting with 3D polygonial forms, thorough their convergence rather than extrusion.

Tinkering with extrusion occured in an attempt to turn this figure into a practical space and complex.

Solid tools were employed to the earlier feature in an atttempt to test how well it fused with curves.

Time was taken to also mess aorund wirth geometrical textures and fillaments for internal spaces, these were proving difficult to construct with vanilla Sketch Up so the Shape Bender and Weld extensions were added.

The 3D model is almost complete textures and materiality still remain, along with the sloping of the gorund as well as the completeion of online activites regarding the model (including adding the custom textures), depending on time constraints I will endevour to reder this in Lumion. Work proceded on the model as external components were brought in to imply usage for the spaces on the floor above. These componets were veichles and car lifts imported from Sketch Up's native 3d warehouse, and are credited in the photos below. Stairs from the first submission were brought in and integrated, to help define access to the above and below levels. The Monolithic cieling of the vestibule was given character with intircate roof art to create textures and depth. A ramp up to the Kyza was installed in the centre of the gallery, whilst the stairs remian ofsset to the left, a sort of symbol prioritizing the access of cars to the first floor rather than that of people.
