Week 3 Experiment 2; Final Submission [Images, textures and text]

The architecture is composed of two primary areas, integrated at a central point on land. The geography is integral to the design, given each workspace appears as if floating above the water, while maintaining a robust attachment to the land.

Isaac Newton’s laboratory is held within this area, cantilevered from the land out above the ocean. A light texture has been incorporated in order of accentuating the fragile state which the space 'floats' above ground.

Freud’s workspace is located upon the upper level of the structure, accessed via the landscape which rises beside the ‘neck’. The space is at the ‘head’ of the structure, which is wholly reminiscent of the human body and thus enhances this relationship between the human anatomy, the landscape and the building. The texture [medium shade] is a somewhat triangular pattern, accentuating the rigid structure linking land and building.

The meeting space is very much a part of the architecture. It is central to the design, as it marks where the structure meets the land; the land 'meanders' between the two spaces, so that a functional and apparent meeting space is created.
It furthermore maintains the relationship between the human body, the building and the earth. This too accentuates how design varies according to environment. The dark texture enhances the boldness of the land, while the surrounding areas of the building are contradictorily light and eloquent.

Spaces are moved between via land, despite being a part of the same structure. Stairs have been incorporated, however, to guide and assist the client [principally Freud] up into his workspace. It alludes to the significance the environment has in providing a clear function in the architecture, so that it has a more natural ‘anatomy’, remembering the ‘electroliquid aggregation/hypotheses’ -
‘The relationship between architecture and landscape determines how it is geometrically defined, which in turn results in a more human form’.

This suggestion is proved in the design.
