二 : Evolution of Concept

The concept of using natural forms of the structure to define the walls and windows will play a big part in this model. There are a series of 'rooms' present, one beneath/on top of the other. I plan to use a simple curved form on the top room, rather than the abstract 3D shapes as depicted above, this is symbolic of the freedom, the absolution of his mind at the summit, simple and pure.

.

New Idea! that the 'Geographer' is bored of his work oriented life, and that he wishes to regress back to his childhood, a carefree innocence. Once more the notion of the curved form on the top relates to the geography of the land, that being the sea vs. the earth. Fluidity VS Solidity.

representing the curves of the contours of the entire landscape in its naturals.

.

-also allegoric in that, the mind of an adult is set and solid, there is a meaning and understanding beneath things, however as one progresses to the ecstasy of the top room, to dream, the mind escapes. It becomes fluid and playful like a childs mind, so complex, yet it cares for not how things work, but how to enjoy.

To Observe.

The Fantasy, that is the tree in the sky

The reflective mirroring of water

The earth below, spaces

The light that flows into a room forcefully

much like the portrait, slits of light through wall

The interplay of light on the contours of the earth & sea

The openings and the views within

To Observe;

The Geographer.


Climbing across the terrain to reach the summit, haven in the rooms.
No defined architecture, just voids like the land, the contours of cliffs and voids

it is natural, such that it is suggestive of walls & windows, through openings and spaces created.
There is a sense of freedom, with no boundaries, you levitate.

.
No walls to confine,

No windows to seek,

No doors to open,

Free from thought.
Free to observe.

.

The origins of the idea or concept was to dream..

dream ones way into the space

a psychological entrance.
