For figuring out how to make it I used logos out of foam and clay to find the figuration.


I have shown traditional and modern architect design in two diffent side. If we look at from north-south we see a very abstract,rectangular design. But if we look at from south to north, we see a classical design.

OLAFUR ELIASSON


Your Gyroscope, 2008

Olafur Eliasson uses his imagination together with simple technologies and materials such as glass, floor lamps, fans and mirrors to explore ideas of space. Eliasson developed analogies between colour and sounds. He and number of other famous architects including Robert Irwin and James Turell believe in the connection between the sounds of specific musical instrument and colour.

Eliasson believes in our ability to hear colours and to see sounds. On this point,he says," We're metaphors. We always come in the colour and shape of our imagination."

Exercise Six-Exquisite Corpse: Anahita Kiani

2.2.1 Project Two(Part One): Anahita Kiani

UNION STATION

Exercise Five: ANAHITA KIANI (Scotia Plaza)

1.The Scotia plaza , in 1987,with 69 storeys was the second tallest building in Canada. the tallest was the 72-storeys tall First Canadian place on Bay Street.

2.In the construction of Scotia Plaza they made a 23 meter deep hole that made it the deepest building in Canada in 1986.

3.Albert Reichmann and Robert Campeau helped top off the 68-storey Scotia Plaza project. Campeau started building the $450 million skyscraper by himself , but sold half of it to the Reichmann familyto raise money for his company,Allied Stores Ltd.

4.In 1989,a just-completed Scotia Plaza made a tall shadow over the Canadian Imperial bank of commerce tower.

5. This is the view of the King street East in 1907 before constructing the Scotia Plaza. There is an article in 1907 that shows the Royal Bank in this picture and asks : why our city is groomy!!! I would like to know what they would say if they had seen Scota Plaza building.

1:3 INDIVIDUAL FORCES

RELATION BETWEEN STILL AND MOBILE:

Combining STILL PLANES with the TRAFFIC WEB map created a remarkable contrast between the two forces and how they interact with one another.

Certain planar forces become combined with mobile forces creating a hybrid force, for example as seen with the interaction between FIELD/PARKS- in planes and UNPAVED PATHWAYS- in traffic. (See Image). The two forces also complement one another to better understand their singular relevance. For example, though the Public Transit parking lots take up a great percentage of still planes, during certain times of day they do become quite active.

RELATION BETWEEN ETHNICITY AND ACTIVITY LEVELS IN AREA :

Combining DAY AND NIGHT: SOCIAL ACTIVITY with the OLD AND NEW: POPULATION, SETTLEMENTS and ETHNICITY map enabled us to better understand residential and commercial forces in a more abstract way.

The DAY AND NIGHT: SOCIAL ACTIVITY map begins to inadvertently represent more commercial areas as well as the OLD AND NEW: POPULATION, SETTLEMENTS map which does the same but with the residential. The combination also emphasizes the development of the old Canadian settlements in the area and how they might have migrated and spread.
