Today I was back in studio and developing my ideas. After working with my sketch models, I though I would be ready to start trying to layout the buildings around the site and I started working on this this morning while waiting for a quick tutorial.
Talking to our tutor helped me to organise me thoughts thoroughly and it was decided that instead of moving onto the builds, I should focus on the landscape as this was the main idea behind my design. I was told to decide what I wanted my site to focus on; at the Minack Theatre, the seating is all directed down the cliff top towards the stage. I need to decide where I want the focus of my site to be centred.
Bearing this in mind, I tried different things on my site, having the steps leading in certain directions, the building protruding at different directions.
There is only so much I can visualise with a 1:500 scale plan and a pack of tracing paper though. Therefore, my next move is to have a go at some site models and play around with it in 3D. I plan to spend tomorrow afternoon and possibly evening working on this until I find something I am happy with or an idea that I can explore further and hopefully have some sort of design by the end of the week.
