WEEK 2 - STAIR

4 Stair Designs/8 Sections




SKETCHUP MODEL STAIR

Based on these two designs/sections:

LEFT PAGE: Stair from Revival Cycles workshop down to showroom space.
 Word was smooth. My materials are concrete for the treads and steel for handrail.
RIGHT PAGE: Steinway workshop up to showroom space. Word was delicate. My materials were concrete for runner and steel for treads (in model I changed it too all steel).

ARCH1101





A. My HSC major work for Visual Arts. I was interested in mixed mediums, and used charcoal, pencil, acrylic paint, collage, stencils and pen to explore our perceptions of self.

B.  Frogs Hollow, by Williamson Chong Architects, 2009. It is a house in central Canada designed to compliment its environment and cater the needs of the clients who are cyclists and needed a base for their rides during the warmer months. It is therefore built into the hillside, rather than on top of the hill, and features a large concrete wall to shelter the ground floor from the harsh weather, and shiplap siding on the top storey to insulate the building.



C. I took this a couple of years ago on the sand dunes around the beach town where my mother grew up. You don't see flannel flowers around much, they have a really interesting texture that is their namesake and looked really beautiful in the last light of the day.
