5 Final Image Captures:

The bridge mainly uses the colour white, because the colour ‘white’ has connotations to purity and elegance yet simple which suit my ‘theory’. Also, the bridge is not overloaded with objects, while maintaining consistent throughout because my ‘theory’ also stated “Removing all the clutter…and the messiness, and the inconsistency, and the imbalance, just to reveal an underlying structure, and an order… and a calm centered piece. So keeping everything in its most simple and purest form is one of the key factors in my ‘theory’.

In my design of the bridge I have included a lot of tall windows which occupy the whole height of the floor because in the ‘theory’ I created with my mash-up, daylight is a highly cost effective means of reducing energy for electrical lighting, and by using large windows the bridge will be able to get more sunlight in the interior of the bridge.

The Folly is simple because according to my ‘theory’ “reducing everything down to the purest, most elegant form…” so even though the Folly is simple it can convey a sense of purity and elegant instead of looking bulky and ‘a lot of things happening at the same time’.

Final image captures with texture

From the image above we are able to see the simplicity of the two monuments and also the land between the two is smooth to further convey the simplicity between the two monuments, but with the aspect of shadows the simple objects convey different complex levels of feelings when different time shadows are cast onto the curvilinear object.

Shadow is an important factor within my two monuments because shadow is used to link the two monuments together. From the image above, as the rectilinear monument projects its shadows onto the curvilinear monument in different times it conveys different feelings. 

The textures on both of the monuments are quite smooth, also the path between the monuments are a smooth path without any sudden lumps, and with the addition of the pond it evokes a sense of soothing sensation because water calms you down, which makes the path in between the two monuments smooth.
