Theory of Movement

Words: flexible, easy, circulation, insight, human body

The development of circulation through architecture requires both an understanding and insight on the connection between the human body in relation to its landscape. By having a flexible plan, efficient alterations in designs allow easy movement throughout the area.

Textures Based on Movement

Using the words Linear, Rotational, Scalar, Symmetry, Rolling and Flowing i developed many material textures and selected 3 to be used in the model.


The 3 selected textures




Moving Elements


Element 1: Columns
Element 2 : Display Stands in Gallery

Real Time Images






The new school is interloped into the space between the roundhouse and square house with multiple bending pathways allowing easy access to different parts of both the uni and the new school. The tall architecture splits the lighting of the environment to have bright and dark halves.

ARCH - Draft Ideas From PDF

 My chosen architectural plan was the riverside museum


I edited the plan in photoshop adding more entrances and exits. Also I elevated some areas (red) to create more spaces for the diverse rooms needed by the school. The dark red areas have multiple floors above to create extra room. The blue indicates the ground level.


By Rotating the new edited plan by 90 degrees and changing some aspects a section cut is created.
