Mockup Model - 1:200

This model, although quite rough, was a great help in finalising the design for the building. I redrew the plans of the building many times, trying to decide on the exact layout of the different paths, but it wasn't until I created this model that I was able to understand many problems with the scheme: light had trouble getting in certain areas, some paths block others, and there was a distinctly separate feel to the front and the back of the building. To try and remedy this, I rearranged much of the plan, and pushed some of the paths through the larger gallery, to break down the difference between the two areas, and create a feeling of unity throughout the scheme.
