Technical drawing


Depending on the scale, a structure that looks like a public space where lots of people can spend time in, with a bigger scale can be like a kind of shelter for one person in an open space. Something that isolates a person from the rest of the world in a certain way.
So a public place can become a private space if the scale is changed.
What I mean is that if you imagine, for example, a Frank Ghery's building, the same structure can be a kind of bench in a park.
The way these structures I made can isolate a person is similar than the way an umbrella protects someone when it's raining. The person is still in an open space, but not completely, because he doesn't see everything that is around him.
I also played with light, and translucent materials, to see the effects they produce to a structure.

In short, this week I tried to play with scales, and how scale can change the space, but also considering materials and light in the structures.
