Screenshots of Environment

Medium texture applied over whole building to contrast the building with its natural environment. The straight-edged texture implies a feeling of being man-made, and this contrasts with the surrounding environment which seems untouched by man. Most importantly, it resonates with the electroliquid aggregation of using simple geometric ideas for design.

Meeting place

The dark texture was used on the stairs leading from the ground to the meeting place. The wavy texture signifies that the students are walking up into a space where their ideas can flow. Nevertheless, it is a physical place of confinement which is shown in the confinement of the wave in the texture. This texture also reflects the idea of simple geometric ideas and a mathematical approach through its obvious simplistic and wavy texture.

View at night time
The light texture was applied to the platform and ceiling of the meeting place to reflect the electroliquid aggregation. The wavy texture is motivated by a mathematical curve which implies a place where students can think artistically and creatively. It also reflects the comfort of the place, so that the students can be in a comfortable environment to share and discuss ideas. Furthermore the continuous nature of the wave in the texture encourages the students to look out into the surroundings which expand infinitely.
