The main living area can be accessed through the hallway. A
large panoramic window at the main living area creates a sense of openness and
allows light to pass through. Kitchen and bathroom are placed next wall to each
other for a more efficient piping system.
The main selling attribute of the apartment is the large
windows. Since it lets natural light to come through, it should be utilized as
a work environment. Here we can see how the office space sits next to the
windows. There are also curtains that can be used when dark environments are
desired.
My ANT map revolves around what most of us drink everyday during our breakfast, coffee. The price of coffee has been at a steep increase during the past decade and there has been a couple time where “coffee boom” creates a sudden hype surrounding coffee. But the price that farmers sell to what we pay in store has a large price gap. My ANT map explores the steps of where a cup of coffee comes from and how every step is a price increase that we pay to the economy.
The diagram of my room is mainly focused on the flow of circulation. The room is projected with three spaces of purpose travel, sleep, and work. And each line acts as a passage between these functions.
The main area of circulation is what I chose to
represent in my graphic composition. The area in the hallway is hatched with
dashed patterns to represent pathway like zebra crossings on the street. Where
the main living space is guarded with large columns to symbolize living space.
The path from the bedroom to the restroom is shown to be circular to give a
feeling of a fast flow of motion. While the increasing thickness flow from the
bed to the desk symbolize the amount of energy spent increase between each
space.
The vectors of the room are extruded with
different heights. They are lifted and folded to create a 3 dimensional diagram
of flow and space of the room while maintaining the original linework.
The corner of the main living area is extruded up to the
ceiling to emphasize the ends of the room. The hallway hatch is lifted to
create an inviting feeling to enter. The circular pathway is rotated to go
above the ceiling. The bed area is also rotated to accommodate the circular end
of the “work – rest” pathway
The pathway that goes toward the ceiling is to give a taller
“feel” to the area. The standing circular cylinder compliments the standing
blocks created by the main living area as well as the bed. The “work-rest”
pathway is sandwiched between the hallway hatch and the main living area to join
the two spaces.
