Original Module

This spawned from how Michael Leunig is quite despondent from the ideas and teachings of societ today. Hence, a rudimentary cube was created with one side being further away than the other five.

Modules & Site Context

1. Cracking module inserted into the Bruni Island landscape (Photo courtesy of Damien Chwalisz). A rather wishful attempt to make in merge nicely with the ground slope, however, im not confident whether the rather 'harsh' geometry of the module amalgamates successfully with the gentleness of the landscape. I would prefer a more 'organic' form instead.



2. Packing - I quite like this module, probably the one with the most potential as far as relating to the client goes. As it is a more organically shaped, which is something I strongly feel relates intrinsically related to him and his personality.

3. Spiralling - I admitt its not typical of the styling one would expect, however I have chosen to look at spiraling from a different angle. The idea the spiralling, in its very definition, is focused around one solitary point. I found this rather relevant when relating it back to the client, Michael Leunig, as his life is currently centralised around his children. This is perhaps seen more clearly in the birds eye view image further down below under 'spiralling'.




4. Weaving - Once again not a classic example of weaving. Given my original module which was essentially almost a standard cube, I found it almost impossible to form a module with curves and organic lines (Unless of course I was missing something which is a definite possibility). Nevertheless, I still see some potential in this module. Its not so much weaving within itself thats crucial as perhaps the weaving and intertwining with the landscape. Given that Michael Leunig strongly believes in the preservation of truth and values, i think it is important for the final dwelling to have strong correlation and relationship with the landscape.

Spiralling

Weaving

Packing

I perhaps see the greatest potential in this module, mainly because I was able to create a form that seems more organic compared to my other modules. I feel this is important in relation to my client, and how I envision what he would possibly live in

Cracking

A planar curvaceous form which attempts to progress from a modularized form to a chaotic one. A potential dwelling for the client, Michael Leunig, it attempts to respond to his personality as a free spirit breaking away from the shackles of society.
