Final Showcase Made in Brunel hosts a showcase at the end of each year to exhibit work primarily from final-year students. The event was held at the OXO Tower Bargehouse, following tradition.

The iconic Lecture Centre seemed a perfect choice to link to Brunel University. I simplified the drawing to make it suitable for vinyl cutting by removing excess and correctly finishing lines. Floor Vinyls Taking direction from team colleagues, I was asked to produce 1:1 assets for objects painted blue around the room, which would lie on the floor. This selection included a Panton Chair and a push bike. I efficiently created the items from photos and measurements using Adobe Illustrator skills. Colouring Wall To add interactivity to the exhibition, I created a colouring wall using assets from throughout the year. Considering the positioning of each design, I pieced together the puzzle of assets with popular items, such as the Brunel Statue on campus, taking a prime spot. Extra Contributions Following the printer's visit, I requested that the printing plates be part of the exhibition as their white and blue combination felt in keeping with Blueprints' visual and part of the story of how the book came together.

Model Making for Architecture Short Course Home Portfolio CV Contact Search More Context For many years I have wanted to make architectural models due to the beauty of their complexity. I finally had the opportunity to fulfil this dream by studying a short course at ual at their Central Saint Martin's College. Each day consisted of a lecture, model making then presenting to the class. Façade Model The exercise was to make us think about the process of building construction. First the core structure and any support is built, then embellishments like windows and cladding are added later. Day 1 - 1:50 Detail Model My aim for the day was precision and simplification. Each step had a 5mm tread depth, so I used one piece of scored and folded paper (combined with cardboard, celled polypropylene and dowel) which resulted in a stable set of steps. Day 2 - 1:50 Topographical Model - 1 The exercise was to construct the local context that a building would sit. A contour map was used as a template. Each contour line represents a 1 metre change in height, so each layer at this scale was 10mm tall. I wanted this model to be structurally strong, so cut cardboard 'against the grain' and created support structures between every layer. Day 3 - 1:100 Topographical Model - 2 The exercise was to build an even larger section of the context to show how a building complex would come together. The geometry of the landscape was intricate, so I wanted to find a presentation technique that minimised material usage. I achieve this by only cutting horizontal layers where buildings sat on the cliff, then formulating the cross section vertically. Day 4 - 1:500 Summary I really enjoyed this short course because I got stuck in, was focused and felt a sense of achievement by the end of each day. My learning outcomes include: Ability to choose the appropriate scale depending on message to communicate. Material choice and construction techniques for a model. Reading different types of drawing. Providing summaries of process to a small group. See here for the e-certificate. Design Tags: Architecture | Model Making
