Evidence of Submission

Note: The originial size of my Sketch-Up file was 100MB which exceeded the 45MB allowable upload limit for 3D Warehouse. However when made to upload the file, Sketch Up automatically adjuested the file size to within the requirements, I am unware of the process by which this was done and so can not attest for the quality of the final model in relation to the model which is visible infront of me the author.

Whilst initial models were made for this task, they seemed to be messy and inadequate as reflections of my skill, and so were remade as follows. The card model 1:20, the cardboard model 1:10 and the paper model 1:50, respectively have their construction shown below . Please take time to read the text and use the images as a flip book, a sort of timelapse detailing the construction.

Due to isolation restrictions all materials used were recycled, with the main white card being old manilla folders , other materials included cling wrap and recycled advertising sheets. This model is made on a 1: 20 sca...

History 2: Essay Reformatted for Web

My first formal submission for architectural history 2 required three informal essays or 'academic articles' which required explaining the architectural significance of three otherwise normal words. My assignment is presented as submitted, however, much of the presentation has been lost due to the blogger conversion, regardless I hope that you give it a read and that it abides by its praise of intellectual stimulation and overcomes the rather valid critiques of convolution. Enjoy! High Tech High-tech’ emerged as one of the “several persuasions”  of modernism which aimed to reinvigorate its ideals through a proper engagement with the “mind of technology” . A fusion of engineering and architecture, the movement captured the zeitgeist of 1960’s ‘Technological Utopianism’ and envisaged mechanised, adaptive environments. Initially derived as an experimental fusion of Archigram’s science fiction, Buckminster Fuller’s ‘Superstructure’ and Joesph Paxton’s ‘Crystal Place’, it went on to...
