D4 [Sketchup]


Furthermore, my final concept D4 constructed in Sketchup is a further development to model D3. I introduced new elements to the design. In order for it to be more structurally and aesthetically sound. For example the tower is constructed of wooden structural columns which have an undercoating material of translucent glass, in order to keep the space closed. A pond has been added to one of the façade with a small window above running parallel to it. In order to once again bring in natural light and the pond reminds her of the time she spent in the ocean with her dad, which brings a sense of serenity to the house. Also, towards the end of the tower the timber columns begin to extrude out and down to form a place of resting or seating. This is so as to break the space giving it a warm atmosphere.
