The project consisted of multiple concept iterations, only one of which was to move forward into the development phase. The design choice for development was the one iteration that was completely different than the rest. This is because it was more methodical and well-thought-out. It also best represented the concept of inclusion.
CONCEPT 4
This was the original choice for development before returning to the final iteration of the concept. It was obvious that the designer did not want to let go of the geometrical forms as seen in the linework. After carefully considering what the actual site needs and the target users and overall concept, the final concept was designed and implemented.
Images of the concept 4 model made from basswood cut-outs and cork roll for the topography.
Rather than focusing on the final rendering of concept 4, the designer knew another iteration was to be considered before developing a fully rendered plan.
This was the epiphany moment when the final concept plan came to mind and eventually developing into the final presentation set.
