Week 3 Independent Study

BEFORE

AFTER

Direction: An abandoned house.

Background: More than a hundred years ago, the island was a beautiful place visited by tourists. But what used to be a lively and peaceful place was interrupted when intruders attacked and took over the place. Now, the island and all the buildings there are left ABANDONED. 

Direction: When intruders attacked, parts of the house were destroyed. 

The materials of the building slowly failing. Columns left to rust, roof and walls cracking.

My Direction (storyline)
More than a hundred years ago, the once beautiful island was attacked by intruders (terrorists). They took over and inhabited the place. Buildings in the island were destroyed and 100 years after the end of human life, the place is now left abandoned with traces left from the terrorists.
To show that, I will create breakable roofs and wall crackings. The house is abandoned and surrounded by overgrown vegetation.


Reflection

This week during lecture, we saw some post-apocalyptic movie and the idea I have gotten from these movies (the day after tomorrow, i am legend, etc) was how to make a scene realistic by looking at some actual natural disasters such as hurricane katrina and the aftermath of it. I'm starting to think of what barcelona pavilion will look like in 100 years the materials were strong materials such as solid wall, glass, and marbles and it should not corrode or deteriorate that fast.
