Basically, our project is extended from the previous projects. It is based on a music chosen, therefore you have to design a capsule for the user (songwriter, composer or anyone related to the music composition) for him to work producing the music. The spaces should incorporate any elements of the song with two major functions; working and resting.
So, mine.
Song title: "Beautiful in White"
Songwriter and Composer: Westlife's Shane Filan
The name of capsule: Alohomora
Location: Level 8, Chancellery of University Malaya
DESIGN STATEMENT
THE CAPSULE IS
IMPLICITLY MEANT TO REFLECT MEMORIES ENCOUNTERED BY THE USER TO ‘CONFINE’
HIMSELF INTO HIS WORK AND IMAGINATION. IT IS INSPIRED BY A JIGSAW, FORMULATING A
VOLUME WHICH INCORPORATES MOOD, RYHTM AND BALANCE FOR BETTER SONG COMPOSITION.
BY DISSECTING THE MUSICAL ELEMENTS OF SONG ENTITLED ‘BEAUTIFUL IN WHITE’, THEY
ARE IMPLEMENTED THROUGHOUT THE DESIGN. THE EPILOGUE OF PHASES ARE POTRAYED AS
MISSING PIECES THROUGHOUT THE CAPSULE. AS THE MAIN IDEA OF CREATING FUNCTIONAL
SPACES, IT IS IMPLEMENTED TO THE WHOLE CAPSULE DESIGN TO LITERALLY RESTORE HIS
MISSING ‘SPIRIT’ WITHIN A WORKING SPACE. A PRIMARY PRISMATIC SOLID, CUBE IS
CHOSEN AS THE BASIC FORM OF THE CAPSULE BECAUSE OF THE EQUALITY OF ITS
DIMENSIONS. BY DIVIDING SPACES INTO THREE PHASES OF CREATING A COMPLETE PIECE, THE
CUBE ARE MANIPULATED WITHIN THE CAPSULE
BY APPLYING SUBTRATION AND ADDITION OF FORM ACCORDING TO THE INTERPRETATION OF
THE SPACE FUNCTION; RESTING AREA IS A PLACE WHERE THOSE MISSING PIECES (IDEAS
OF COMPOSING) IN RELATION TO HIS EXPERIENCES AND MEMORIES ARE ACQUIRED
INDIRECTLY. WORKING AREA IS A PLACE WHERE THOSE MISSING PIECES ARE ARRANGED
COMPLETING THE WHOLE FORM. BOTH SPACES ARE INTERPENETRATED EACH OTHER TO SHOW
THAT THEY COMPLEMENT ONE ANOTHER. STORAGE SPACE IS A SPACE WHERE THE WHOLE
PIECE IS DISPLAYED OR KEPT. BASICALLY,
THIS CAPSULE TELLS A STORYLINE WITHIN SPACES CORRESPONDING TO THE USER’S CONFLICT
IN THE MIDST OF WORKING. IN RESPONSE TO THE SITE LOCATION, THE EXPRESSION OF
THE CAPSULE IS ENHANCED BY CAPTURING THE NATURE AND URBAN VIEWS. THE
COMBINATION OF SUBTRACTIVE AND ADDITIVE COMPOSITION OF THE CUBE FURTHER CREATES
A VOLUME OF SPACE FOR THE USER TO WRITE LYRICS AND COMPOSE SONGS. IT CREATES
ITS OWN EXPRESSION YET A GOOD PARASITE TO THE ATTACHED BUILDING.
DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
This is my very first idea. It was a manipulation from a key shape. The upper part was taken out forming a cylindrical shape. Louvers are added around it to show the shape is engulfing secured representing the couple setting knot as a married couple.
One of suggested furniture.
Second idea on the 'missing pieces' concept using the interlocking spatial verb. The spaces are divided into two (resting and working) with an intermediate.
This is my final design. It is divided into three important spaces according to the processes needed to complete the missing pieces; Resting area is an area where the missing pieces are being found (ideas), Working area is an area where they are arranged completing one whole piece and storage is where that complete piece is being displayed or kept.
IDEA DEVELOPMENT MODELS
At the early of the design process, I couldn't make a decision on the basic shape to be manipulated of; a cylinder and cube. So, I made a manipulation of spaces for each shape testifying my concept; missing pieces like a jigsaw.
