The isometric view above shows a structure created by carving out voids from a cube using basic shapes. There were two shapes used to create voids, the truncated pyramid, and the sphere. The truncated pyramids interact with the cube at different angles to carve out openings from the shell of the cube.  The openings it creates gives the structure’s form harmony, while the varied angles that they interact with the cube at give it unpredictability and provoke curiosity.  The sphere interacts with the core of the cube as a primary driver for creating space. Its smooth and organized curvature juxtaposes the more aggressive openings formed by the truncated pyramids.  




The elevation introduces a view that highlights the general form created by the elements.  Observing the view from the bottom to the top shows the escalation from the more organized and calming spherical elements to the more imposing and less predictable forms created by the truncated pyramids.
