CONCEPT DESIGN 2


I've just modeled this up in ArchiCAD as a second try to gather everyones ideas of a intertwining space within a balanced society. The city capital centralises the space with the greenery inbetween each space. Links need to be made to each module. What do you think?

Images worth considering











yeh this could work em. im thinkin more greenery tho...the natural balance and harmony of life was established along time b4 technology so mayb we could mask some of the the business and residential areas in complete green vegetated walls and enclosures....rly push the boundary, mayb even work on the idea of an ecosystem going underground (hobbit style) and burrowing further down towards the earths core...it is concept and based on some of the other ideas we've seen i generally think its important that it look strong metaphorically and conceptually. im thinkin layers as well as the bubbles you set out, e.g residentaial higher up in the sky (kind of like that pic on the front our design course outline...n i kno u'l hate this but you kno how corb worked with gardens and houses in the sky...he's idea failed miserably but if we push it further it mite work conceptually.

Planets/spheres

Great idea em! But what if those circles were 3D and each one was a sphere/planet with different things on each. One for the city centre, housing, parks, leisure, government etc... Maintaining the balance idea.

workings

Hey guys this is just an idea i've been working with over the last couple of hours.
It had started out as a completely radial idea however another group was doing the exact same thing so i needed to start again!
This is just an idea based on the balances in life and linking between each aspect to provide a quality lifestyle to the residents and visitors to the space.
As you can see there are residential, capital, greenery and business spaces.
Let me know what you think or I'll see you guys tomorrow at the computer lab at 12 :D
