CONCEPT
THE DUT DESIGN SCHOOL CALLS FOR AN ENVIRONMENT THAT
WILL INSPIRE ONE TO GENERATE GOOD ASTHETICS AND DESIGN PRINCIPALS IN THEIR OWN DESIGNS. MY THOUGHTS ARE THAT ONE IS ABLE TO PICK UP DESIGN ELEMENTS BEST BY COMMING INTO CONTACT WITH THEM. FOR THIS DESIGN I WANTED TO PLAY WITH CLEAN LINES AS WELL AS GIVE THE BUILDING SOME INTERESTING CURVILINEAR ELEMENTS THAT WOULD CREATE A BEAUTIFUL CONTRAST. THE RED COLOUR ON THE WALL ADDS A PLAYFULNESS TO THE MORE ELEGANT BLACK AND WHITE SHADES OF THE BUILDING AND THEREFORE IS ABLE TO BRING OUT THE POSITIVE CONTRASTING ELEMENTS OF THE DESIGN. THE MARRIAGE OF ALL THE DIFFERENT ELEMENTS IN THE DESIGN HELP CREATE A 'WOW FACTOR' IN RELATION TO THE CONSERVATIVE TERTIARY EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTES. THIS ARCHITECTURE IS
DESIGNED TO FIT IN WITH ITS SURROUNDING BUILDINGS YET STAND OUT FROM THE REST. I WAS ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH THIS BY USING THE LINEAR PATTERNS FROM THE OTHER BUILDINGS AND INCORPORATING A SPLASH OF INTERESTING COLOUR AND ADDING WILD ELEMENTS TO THE FACADES.
