SPECIAL STUDY

Pantoon Type 9

The best possible structure for large floating structure for my design will be Pontoon type because the only Pontoon type structure can be stayed easily on floating surface and can be easily relocated to any place. It is given that Pontoon type and gravity base structure are the only structure which can float on the surface of the water without any support. They are designed to last for at least 50 years. . Pontoon type structure can be easily relocated and reassembled at any place.

FLOATING ARCHITECTURE

From the case studies i observed that the world is shifting to the water side, and so the future will be water world in next few generations.

POLLY POCKET

SECOND FLOOR

Project 1 challenged us to create a Polly Pocket model inspired by a chosen precedent house, in this case, the Johnston Marklee View house in California. By meticulously studying the plans, elevations, and sections of the house, we gained insights into its spatial qualities. We incorporated hinges into our model to emulate the dollhouse concept, allowing for multiple entrances and openings to enhance the functionality of the spaces.

Drawing inspiration from the German Dockenhaus and Dutch cabinet house, we explored the idea of expanding space through innovative design.

THIRD FLOOR

HINGES DOLL HOUSE Project 2 centers on integrating the exterior form of our precedent house into the interior of the Sea Ranch Binker Barn house. I collaborated with a classmate to develop a design that could seamlessly function as an interior object while blending with the Binker Barn's exterior. This task was particularly challenging due to the precedent house's circular plan, which was needed to be merged with the Binker Barn's square plan.

SEA RANCH, CA

Through this process, we discovered various approaches to solving design problems. We designed hinges to create multifunctional spaces, including a living room and a patio on the first floor. Additionally, we incorporated super graphics, a visually striking design feature inspired by our precedent house. We transformed the curves of the exterior object into a 2D diagram, which became a super graphic element in the Sea Ranch house.
