2A&2B Natural Structure & Man-Made Structure

MONDAY & FRIDAY, AUGUST 13 & 17, 2009

PROJECT 2A & 2B NATURAL & MAN-MADE STRUCTURE

We were asked to pick ONE natural structure around HBP area
and have it sketched on a A3 cartridge paper.

I picked this natural beauty:

and my pencil sketch on A3 cartridge:

We were then asked to developed a man-made structure from what we have sketch.
I came across the idea of transforming the branches of the tree into such supporting structure, which is the column for skylight steel-framed roof, found usually in airport terminal buildings.

and the product is such:

The tree trunk shape resemble the column ,
the branches resemble the huge span that provides support for the building roof.
