So today I have booked in a time within Jen's office hours to get some feedback in how my project is progressing. She liked the isometric, crisp way of expressing my model in as it gave an insight into how the space would be experienced both internally and externally.
What I need to look at and change my design accordingly before Thursday is in the form of materiality. I have made my float have a sort of marbled stone finish to try and emulate the architectural materiality throughout the Ottoman Empire. However it is creating the sense of permanency rather than a 'temporary float' as the brief specifies. I have considered this in which I had thought that my structure would be made from plywood and prefabricated and then put together onsite, but I hadn't considered how the stone finish could be applied.
Jen has offered the idea that my design could have a purposeful 'fakeness' to it in which I could make only the front facing sides to each part of my design (for example the balustrade) have the aesthetic of stone. The back face could resemble the plywood to tie back in with the street aesthetic of breakdancing. Danielle has offered a good idea to further this in which I could create an isometric 'exploded' view of the different layers of materials to help visualise this idea.
I will need to Photoshop some materials onto my renders as well to help make my design more realistic. But other than that I am good to go for Thursday. I don't have a potential layout for my poster so I could not present that, but I should be fine in this regard.
She has also asked me, for my technical drawings, to get rid of the windows as they are distracting and well, just not working. Redo my technical drawings without the windows in them.
