Final Model- Explanation

Model
Bascially, my inspiration came from the Nakagin Capsule Tower in which it brought the ideas of Metabolsim and how functionality was more important than aesthetics.

 However, I believe that each room has its own characteristics and there fore it should have the same boring look from its exterior.  Thus, giving the interior more bright colour. Design wise, i followed Sejima's ideas of have the path as an exterior element to the overall bridge design. Also i tried to incorporate her tetris pattern through the building trying to lock in certain areas together.


Folly

I wanted to keep its rectilinear form because it fixed my theory of a manmade structure that stood distinctive to its nature, yet being one with it as well

Moving Elements

This elevator is a capsule, element room are made of 3m x5m x4m capsule and thus this intergrates with the plan and allows individuals to move to the Folly location whilst providing a beautiful ocean views.
