Week 3 - Continuation of the composition

After consultation with Weasley about my composition, I've made a minor changes to my composition that would satisfy the criteria for the assignment such as calculation and solidify the design furthermore and develop it to the next stage to planning the layout.

The following points briefly describes what the building will have.

  • Curtainwalls + large spiral staircase - this would be one of the main design feature of the building along with the cut off pyramid that extruded out from the main body of the building.
  • It 2 to 3 levels of functional spaces. - Split ground level for kitchen, living and first level mainly bedrooms
  • Building volume doesn't exceed 900m3
Here are some calculation to show that my building does satisfy the brief.

Cone Volume
Rectangular Prism Volume
Pyramid Volume
Cone:                               81.2m3, proportion percentage(%) 21*
Rectangluar Prism:          403.2m3, proportion percentage(%) 44.7*
Pyramid:                          228m3, proportion percentage(%) 25*
* from the max 900m3

Total:                               712.4m3
