Last week we worked on our map mind to get different ideas of what we would like our design to look like or to know what we wanted to include in the design of our structures.
This week we worked on developing those ideas to work on the concept of our projects. To do that, we took one of our initial ideas from the map mind as a starting point and chose one of the images handles to us by our tutor.

Giacomo Balla, Velocity of an Automobile, 1913
I chose this image to develop my idea because it contains multiple lines going in various directions which creates various angular geometric shapes. As showed in my mind map, I aim for the design of my structure to be made of angular geometric forms.

For the first Idea I worked with the rectangles which are in the back of the perspective. The lines made me think of windows so I came up with this idea.

For the second idea I got inspired by the shape of these particular lines and the triangles formed by the shape toward the end of the image.

The lines made me think of a bow tie and from that I started sketching small buildings design inspired by that and finally came up with this design which reminds me of half of a bow tie.

After having these ideas in, I chose one of the two to develop further into a creating study. For that, I chose the second idea.
I tried to think about what the result could be If I mixed the forms of the initial drawing differently and once I had the shape I added origami design to the structure to make it more interesting

For the second drawing I decided to only work with the triangle part of the design and see what a mix of different triangles could give me. For the bottom part I went with a rather simple design and simple glasses then combined it with two other triangles to which I added lines to represent wood on the windows( inspired from the first development idea)

for the third idea, I went back to the image of Giacomo Balla in which I got inspired by these lines

And with the inspiration from the second creation study I came up with this design which I think is simple but very effective and could be worked on to make it better

I will continue to work on these ideas and to make them better and come up with my final design for next week.
Tania, this is much better - well thought and good use of the development image you chose, particularly like the focus on each aspect of the painting and how it has impacted on your design ideas. Looking forward to seeing what you do with these ideas next.
