My Tip

Something I have learned whilst doing this course is that every detail counts and each bit of effort will be worth it in the end. By spending a few extra minutes on shading in an axonometric or straightening up perspective lines, you will notice a big difference in the finished product and you will feel that the extra time and effort has payed off.

Final Model - Stephen Hawking Space

“Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change.” - Stephen Hawking





This space relates to change as it provokes restraint as well as freedom when you are inside it. The transitions from the corridor ramps to the main lab brings about a sudden change of mood and aesthetics.

Final Model - Meeting Space

The wide and open meeting space evokes diversity in thought and is the perfect place for ideas to grow and develop in. It spans out in three directions which suggests opportunity and growth.





Final Model - Florence Nightingale Space

"I never lose an opportunity of urging a practical beginning, however small, for it is wonderful how often the mustard-seed germinates and roots itself."








This space expands and changes as you travel up the ramp, the ramp is an experience in itself as it makes its way up to the lab. The thin ramp expands into a wide lab and then it changes once more in the smaller room.
