Unit Summary 2

Falling water or Monticello?

Falling water!

The details in the building are created by working around the trees and topography that stood before the building. These beams are made around the trees, so the trees are not torn down. This building combined with the site showcase a work of art. The two create a harmonious environment.

The rise of modernism...

        Why was it so important for something to be considered modern?

In architecture and design people at the beginning of the twentieth century were searching for something new, something better.

With technology today we do the same thing. Take cell phones for instance every month or so a new phone is coming out, better than the one before it. We are constantly searching and experimenting to make the latest product better.

The iphone, specifically, was considered the most modern and advanced phone, for a few months. The phone is very sleek and clean, geometrical and easy to use. 

Where my inspiration comes from...

All inspiration has to come from something, somewhere out there....

Personally i draw my inspirations from photographs, objects, or spaces that feel to come alive in front of my eyes. When starting out with an idea I imagine the whole site as a blank canvas, molding the space into it is needed for.
