Rising designer Kelly Harris introduced three design challenges via floor plans, ceiling plans, axonometric drawings, and a series of models. Here’s a review of his attempt at designing these three spaces, while introducing the word, “PENDULATE” conceptually.
Following Harris’s refreshing and informative presentation, my discoveries are as follows: Starting with the smallest space, the 11’x 32’4”; It is my belief that the model actually brought this space to life, giving a precise diagram of navigation . From the floor plan I gained a clearer perspective of clearances in this space, as Harris's interior walls swing about the the exterior walls. In my opinion she successfully communicated her design concept with her kit selection. Harris used two walls and a column to achieve her design challenge. Although, the column seems a bit isolated in the whole scheme, she gave us function in term "pendulate" with the walls.
Next, the 22’x 22’ space, Harris, uses 1 wall and 2 columns to express her design skills and ideations. She explains during the presentation that she intended to play on the geometry of the arch, deriving from her conceptual term "pendulate". She best communicated this idea visually with her model, which also, reveals her columns isolated and uncared for, yet again.
Finally, Harris continues the concept of pendulate in her third design, in a 22’ x 32’4” space. She uses two solids to demonstrate her design concept. Although, of the three spaces this design seems the least related to the concept term, she briefs it as a passage of time. The axonometric drawing supported her best in her communication efforts of this idea.
Stay tuned for Kelly Harris, a new comer, and a design talent that may pendulate your way!
