Body, Space, City - Poster & Box Board Model
The poster reflects my spacial experience in the city where I examined how the city tries to integrate itself into the harbour. The box board model is a reflection of this where I tried to promote this connection and the interactions that have resulted.

Mount Board Model
Inspired by the Bach Pavillion by Zaha Hadid and Julia Kristeva's essay on abjection, I tried to push the mount board to its extreme limit. As a result I created a protective form that shields us from the "powers of horror".

Final Model
"Give me a museum and I'll fill it." - Picasso
This representation of the space between the law building and the chemical sciences building tries to frame your view in many different ways when looking at it from the many perspectives available. The way light enters the void through the various openings creates a powerful dreamlike experience.

Developed Crysis Environment
The bridge demonstrates the most important aspect when it comes to power between two people; this being balance. The way the bridge balances on its main support column expresses the fact that the two clients working in the bridge depend on balance to ensure equality in their relationship with power.
Miranda Kerr's wing of the bridge is encompassed in a series of rings. These rings frame the bridge in such a way that power is expressed with continuity and help to link this wing with the central spine of the bridge. The office space within is situated on multiple levels to demonstrate varying degrees of power.
Helen Keller's wing is much more open and lofty with large openings in the facade to help her connect with her homeland. Her power is expressed through elegance; curves in the form of the bridge mimic this elegance without showing weakness. The sheer scale of the space also helps to accentuate such power.
The elevator shaft is integral to the design of the bridge. As well as transporting the lifts down to the meeting space it also acts as a support for the bridge above and creates balance between the two wings. The slits in the shaft frame views of the canyon whilst travelling on the elevators and helps to powerfully connect the bridge with the meeting space below.
The table is located on the elliptical meeting space with views along the river of the Grand Canyon. The shape of the table mimics the curves of the space it is situated in connecting it with the overall structure. The elliptical shapes which are so evident demonstrate the equality which is necessary for balance in relationships with power.
