Post an image to your blog of each of the three selected houses and write 30 words on each. You could include observations on structural systems used, materials used, historical facts, information on the architects etc.
“Light is the origin of all being. Light gives, with each moment, new form to being and new interrelationships to things, and architecture condenses light to its most concise being. The creation of space in architecture is simply the condensation and purification of the power of light.” – Tadao Ando
This simple mainly uses concrete panels with reinforced mesh for majority of the building profile,and glass for windows.
Very clean and straight forward design yet gives a powerful impression.
The aim of design for this museum is to create a never ending effect when people walk around the museum, which is achieved by the overall circular curtain walls, and a lot of rectangular walls for varies rooms, which is mostly made from concrete.
Sao Paulo Museum of Contemporary Art- LINA BO BARDI 1957-68
This building is gives a strong structural impression, the main building is held by by 2 portal frame like concrete pillars. The top and the bottom slab of the building is reinforced concrete, and than is covered all sides with curtain walls.
Reflection
This week I found out how diffuse, Specular and bumpmap works, which is very interesting as how the cryengine only renders bumpmaps when you get close enough to create the fake shadow effect, looking forward in using it into my models.
