As part of this course we participated in a design camp at Bundanon, part of Arthur Boyd's properties on the South coast of NSW.
We were asked to design a cafe model that would fit into the environment at Bundanon and suit the layout of the other buildings surrounding. We had to brainstorm and think about essential features and certain aspects to help the environment. This included things such as showing off the views and placing windows in particular sun spots. It had to be made 3D and fit into a larger Bundanon model. At the end we presented our models fitted into the larger model and explained our design.
For my cafe model, I used alot of different materials. I used alot of foam core for the base of the model, balsa wood was used, paints, wire and cardboard.
POSITIVES: I was happy with the height of my building as it shows of the view of Bundanon and compliments the nature surrounding it. I also enjoyed the look of the wire hanging from the roof which was a decoration I thought would suit the building, representing trees and mountains. The colours I used matched the other buildings too.
NEGATIVES: The size of the ground level of the cafe was a bit disappointing for me as I imagined it to be alot bigger. The kitchen was placed on the ground level which would made it a bit difficult to bring the food up and down the stairs.
