Welcome to Architecture and Interior expressions

     

For this project I have chosen to work and explore the principles of expressionism in architecture, the variety of forms and architects who have worked with the idea. I would try to amalgamate in my own way or study a variety of architectural languages which could be Eclecticism. Gothic, Art nouveau or from ancient civilizations either Babylonian or Meso-American, in a pursuit of understanding, to better answer the question of "expressionism" in its architectural and artistic denotation. I will create six drawing illustrations of two buildings in graphite showing views and perspectives, which will suffice in the expression of this pursuit. 

 

Hello! Welcome to Art Portfolio term 1, it is a new term that comes with a new energy of inventiveness and expressions. This term I would want to expand on the depths of my personal architectural approach to design and style and hopefully increase my outreach and understanding of some other or similar architectural languages which I previously looked at.  Some of these other architectural languages and expressions could be a background from Sumerian, Gothic or Mesoamerican.  Sumerian architectural examples: Most ziggurats from ancient Mesopotamian and Babylonian eras have been destroyed, however these are accurate artistic renditions of how they would have appeared. Mesoamerican architectural examples: The Mesoamerican great pyramids from the Mayan and Aztec eras, are very reminiscent yet unique in their structure, when compared to architecture in the regions of Mesopotamia and Babylon.  Gothic architectural examples: Gothic architecture is rude and uncompromising in its ...

For my advertising piece, the focus would be on an alternative type of farming called - 'vertical farming'.  For my research I will look at what vertical farming is, its history, why it is an alternative form of agriculture and how it could be used for the betterment of the human species.    VERTICAL FARMING :- Vertical farming is the process by which food crops, vegetation and plants are grown in regulated indoor environments on vertically inclined surfaces, which artificially accounts for and sustains all conditions needed for plant life, such as, nutrition, lighting, temperature, irrigation and air circulation. Its primary goal is to amplify crop yield in a limited but efficient space in vertical order, hence the deviation from regular horizontal farming. The idea behind vertical farming can be traced to East Asia, where vertically layered growing techniques were practiced by the indigenous peoples in creating rice terraces. This concept would later be first named in 1...

The influence of the building may be derived from several classical languages but I will create my own forms just like how Neo-classical Architects took cues from Greco-Roman Architecture and made a new style, this was also done in the Baroque, Palladian, Art deco and Gothic periods. These all took their ideas initially or were influenced by Greek and roman architecture to create a new language.   Building type - Museum for Art and History  Location - Italy, Florence, Via Nazionale.   Materials - Granite, limestone, brass, concrete, marble, glass Measurements - The drawing is scaled 1:100, total width in real life is 1600cm and length is 2750cm  Left section: First floor - 400cm in height and 400cm in width  Second floor - 600cm in height and 400cm in width  Middle section: Ground floor - 800cm in height and 800cm in width  First floor - 600cm in height and 800cm in width  Second floor - 600cm in height and 800cm in width   Rig...
