After all my design idea's I have chosen this design for my final piece in which i took influence from the natural architecture, it gave me an idea to design a hotel for my final piece. I had to think deeply for the structure of my design and how it would look in the envirment to be able to see how it would look if it really existed I used sketch up.





These are both sketch up drawings the above is just a plane design of my building design and the below which I have tryed to add materials and imagary to the building and also to give some idea of scale. Unfortunatlly it was hard for me to use sketch up very well because as I have never used it before, therefore I had to stay behind in college to work on it more because my own laptop is broken and i can't get it fix. But I didn't give up on it I tryed my best to use it and be able to use it for my design board. Making the sphere of the building was very difficult to make which is the top circle on the tower.






This is my final hotel design in which I have applyed the prospective and the elevation view inside its structure. I am very happy with the outcome of my design, with the influence of the running circle and my research on architecture. To help me to come up with an idea I had to alot of researching to do and using books. I think I have made a great achievemnet for my final piece which is a hotel. I have forgoten all the hard work that I faced during this project because I naw know that I have succed and very proud of my work.
Here I am ckecking the layout of how my drawings would look on the black design board, which I am going to lay the three prospective drawing of my hotel design for e.g the elevation view, and birds eye view. Whilst doing that I thought of stucking the prospective drawing on white foam board nice and sharp edges to make it stand out on the design board.



This is a natural architecture which is called the (running circles) the movement of this is characterized by the work of a number of artists, designers and architects that express these principles in their work, and provide's a new framework to approach buildings and structures. Because this work was ment to comment on architecture I wanted to take influence on that and make my final hotel design in this style, which it has a natural achitecture Movement in it.



I have been designing some sketches to help me to decide what I want to do for my final idea. This picture influences me by the flow and the running of its circles, and the design itself looks like an actual building although its made out of tree and also it has trees behind it which makes the design looking like a real building in its environment. The reason i chose to take influence on this piticular design from the natural architecture because it was abvious for me to grow this design into real structure design.



The above image is the idea of my hotel structure, i am still developing this idea and thinking about it to work with it technically the look of in side and out side of the building. I am also currently working on designing the structure inside the building, by drawing in prospective and elevation view.


I have been given the theme Movement in which i will be appling it to achitecture as its my future career. In this assigment i will be developing my skills in designing structure buildings.


Therefore I chose Daniel Libeskind which I am insipired by. He was borin in May 12 1946 in Lodz, Poland who is an American architec and artist also set designer of Polish and Jewish descent.



Rochan, Lisa. "Libeskind shows genius for complexity in February 27, 2003 Libeskind won the compition to be the master plan architec for the reconstruction of the World Trade Center site in Lower Manhatten. Other than his architectural projects he also designs's opera sets for production such as the Norwegian National Theatre. Architec Daniel Libeskind's work's which i personally think that they are very beautiful design projects, although he is an architectural theorist and professor for long times, he completed his first buidling when he was age 52 but the critics didn't like his designs as '' unbuildable or unduly assertive'' Pearman, Hugh (July 27 - August 1, 1998).

Such as the (Dream Hub Yongsan IBD) (the above imaga) the site for the Yongsan International Business District is strategically and symbolically located within the heart and soul of Seoul, in south korea's historic capital city. Also the site is developed into a generous natural landscape which acts as the “sea” connecting the islands together.The site will be transformed into a vibrant international destination, and the development on the site speaks to an environmentally sustainable future while still respecting the great history of the Korean people.http://www.daniel-libeskind.com/typo3temp/pics/a8a61c158c.jpg.






The Jewish Museum is located in Berlin Germany which exhibits the social, political and history of the Jews in the 4th century until now, was his first major international success
http://arch48fbernardes.files.wordpress.com/2008/12/the-jewish-museum-berlin.jpg. I was invited by the Berlin Senate in 1988 to participate in this competition for the Jewish Museum, I felt that this was not a program I had to invent or a building I had to research, rather one in which I was implicated from the beginning, having lost most of my family in the Holocaust and myself having been born only a few hundred kilometers east of Berlin in Lodz, Poland."

The reason why I like the Museum design of this building is because it has a powerful movement in its design with the sharpness of the corners and the way it zigzag’s backwards and forwards on itself. Also by the way it fits quite unconventionally within the landscape, and the surrounding buildings, because the buildings are quite traditional and rectangular. Looking at the museum from an ariel view I can see a pattern on the top of the roof it made me consider and think about the design of the roof if seen from the google earth it looks like you can see roads and buildings rather than the actual museum shape. It looks like a camouflage or road map.




The second architect which I was also inspired by is Zaha Hadid she was born 31 October 1950 in Baghdad Iraq. she was the first woman to win the pritzker prize fo architecture in 2004. She the most beautiful buildings around the world e.g., the above image is called (Al Raha) 5 star beach hotel in abu Dhabi. I like many of her works bacause they are quite modern and rich in dynamic shapes and the materials been used and I am interested in working that way.




At the end of the project my work was hanged up in portsmouth university where is a busy area many people and students walk past there and this is a good advantage for me bacause they can see my work while they go past. On the other hand there were sitting area for for student's and visiters who could sit there and see the design board. Therefore I was very happy about the position and the way my work was put up at the university corrodoor.
