Project 2 | Drawings & Model

Model

Materiality: dark red Helsingborg bricks that have the quiet strength of unadorned masonry

Openings
Openings are designed with careful thoughts to allow glowing spaces to appear within a dusky ambience. The retreat is lit up by natural light from the skylight, wall/ ceiling slits and the sole window.

1) Skylight over the arcade to the lookout
Shadow of the south-facing frames in the arcade forms a rhythm and changes vividly during the day.
2) Framed lookout

The lookout is designed with the idea of a pin-hole camera. Four sides of the box-shaped lookout is closed with the window opening facing the beatufiul view of the pond. When the photographer stands in the lookout, he is merged with the window fames becoming part of the picture.


3) Wall slit created by interseting wall.
Streak of sunlight into the meditation room at sunrise.


4) Wall Slit formed by connectin wall

Stream of sunlight into the meditation room at sunset.


5) Entrance

Arrival is a shadowy closed outdoor journey lit from above. The closed and narrow entrance formed by curved and straight lines cast interesting shadow.
