2. STAPLERTransformation: In my transformation sketch I decided to show the
transformation of a stapler. I decided to break down the mechanics and
show all the pieces coming togther to form the stapler.
3. Chings Principle’s
In our Ching’s Princples project I was given the task to show 6 of his
principles through drawings of buildings or stautues that I see here on the
Bowling Green campus. The six princples were symmetry, axis, hierarchy,
datum, repiteion, and transformation.
Symmetry: I decided to show the princple symmetry through the brick and the fenestraion pattern on
the Math & Science building on the BGSU campus
Axis: I decided to show the princple axix’s through the bell/ clock tower on campus. I decided that this was a good form
of axis becuase you can see the bell tower from three different ways and the bell tower still has your full attention.
4. Hierarchy: I decided to show hiearchy through placement from the fenastration pattern shown on the Wolfe Center
on the BGSU campus.
Hierarchy: I decided to show hiearchy through placement from the fenastration pattern shown on the Wolfe Center
on the BGSU campus.
Datum: I decided to show datum through the sun and its beams bouncing off of this building on the BGSU campus.
The sun and its beam create this point and line that makes the building seem as though its being built off of it.
5. Repitition: I decided to show repitition through the fenestration pattern on one of the entarnces into the oslcamp
building on the BGSU campus.
Transformation: I decided to go back to the other half of the Wolf Center and show the transformation of how th
ebuilding goes from larger to smaller
6. Cartesian GridMy Cartesian grid project was based off of the Ching principle hierarchy by height. The hierarchy is
based off the quadrants of the Cartesian grid. The tallest volume being in the (+,+) quadrant and the
sammlest volume is in the (-,-) quadrant. The 2ndtallesr volume is is located in the (+,-) quadrant and
the 3rd tallest volume is located in the (-,+) quadrant. The volumes are being built off the planes but
also are being built off of each other becuase they are all connected.
7. Word Project: PenetrationI decided to show the word penetration by using a white box and bass wood. Showing how the box is being penetrated
by the wood. I took off the left and right side of the box so you can fully see the penetration and how it is happening.
8. VILLA COOK
Case Study upon the home Villa Cook that was built and deisgned by Le Corbusier. The Villa
Cook is Le Corbusier’s first piece of work which includes his five points of architecture: the con-
tinuous strip window, the round pilotis, the free plan, the free facade and the roof garden
9. Axis Through the Grid
My interpretation of the painting “The Still Life with Wine by Ozenfant, is the three strong
axis that help create the painting. I used the axis to create and show positive and negative
space in the painting. I incorportaed the grid by using this form of weaving method with the
painting. The difference between the positive and negative space, while the negative space is
created by the grid piceces splitting apart, while the positive space is created by this voided
area in the grid.
