Plan Drawing
An Imaginary Park...
was created by placing the chess pieces with respect to the field design. The field design was push and pulled to great different topography. The circulation is non-linear and playful , which extends off the park to support the playful nature of the park. The circulation wraps around follies to draw people off the park.
Placement ...
was carefully considered while placing the objects. Plan, long and short elevation would have a combination of solid and void spaces. The pieces were also made to have different scales to provide different experiences for visitors.
When Creating...
the chess pieces, a grid was used to divide the peices into 3 separate part. A head, body and feet were considered for each chess piece and windows were added to some pieces to create variety.
The 2D Drawings...
were then converted to 3D chess pieces. New forms were generated by turning one of the pieces 90 degrees and combining the pieces together to generate new unique forms.
