Week 2/3 - Composition

I've chosen the following  primitives shapes for the basis of my design:

Cone
Rectangular prism
Pyramid

Chosen primitives shapes

I've assigned the chopped of cone one of the main feature of the design, it would present a spiral stairs surround with a curtain wall, Rectangular prism as the main body of the design and pyramid turned into a a trapezoid as an extrusion from the main body perhaps representing a balcony or room.

First Rotation

Second rotation

 My cone shape will be the only shape that is parallel to the ground as it will be the connection with the ground and between each levels of my building. So in order to satisfy the criteria, the other two primate must be rotated and twisted. I've applied two different rotation on the rectangular prism as in in the pictures above. The first rotation is at the minimum 10 degrees along its length and the second rotation on its width at 15 degrees. As I manipulate the main body in SketchUp, its give me further ideas to develop designs and thus the building will have 3 levels and slanted roof shape.

Chopped Pyramid with dimensions

Top Elevation

Side Elevation

For the pyramid I've chopped its pointed end and turned it to a trapezoid and that my main body of the rectangular prism was plain and wanted to dress up the its facade to bring further uniqueness to the design. This was achieved by rotation on its axis on two different sides by 15 degrees in relation to the main body seen in the picture above.

The cone is attached to the opposite side of the main body. The above photos shows the relationship between the shapes and its volumes in an exploded view.
