New Overall Shape

I am quite disappointed in this picture right now because I am having a bit of trouble with the putting texture into the model, not just my own texture but actually onto some surfaces. It is a tad frustrating because I will chose the face I want to apply texture to and it won't do anything or texture another surface, or my favourite will be if it already has a texture on it and I want to change it will sometimes change right back to gray and I simply won't be able to put any texture on it. I don't know what is going on but I hope it is resolved before Thursday. Anyways.

Artists Work In Space

Building Stairs In Sketch Up

Textures

These are my 36 textures from the studio on the Tuesday Studio class. My favourite texture is Reactive!!!

Second 3D Model

This is my second sketch up model including the two sets of stairs, which has turned into eight sets of stairs in order to accommodate the four different buildings that create the artist studios. The studios are in a different set of buildings then the exhibition space which is glass building in the back to let in the natural light, and to seperate the working space from the show space. The above ground space represents the word broken from Rosalie Gascoigne's art and the below ground represents metallic for Fiona Hall's art.

Sections Used In Second Model

These are my sections for the second SketchUp Model. The top two sections are for the set of stairs to go from below ground to ground level. You will note that I have changed them once I had my model done in Sketch Up to better suit what I actually had. The bottom two sections are for the set of stairs that goes from ground level to above ground.

Stair Sections Not Used In Model

These are the sections of stairs that would be placed in my first model. The first drawings would be used to go from below ground to ground level. They would be in there own stairwell and would almost act as there own artpiece. The steps comprise of triangle pieces cantilevered into the different sides of the stairwell as you are going up. The second set of sections are for going to from the upper level to the ground level and they curve around a central column so that when you either go up or down the stairs you have a nearly 360 degree view around the exhibition area.
