3 | The Moving Elements and Folly

THE MOVING ELEMENTS



1. Rail elevator to get down to Folly. 
Just outside the studios on the ground floor is an elevator that would run on a rail down to the folly room. Since you can't make caves or hollowed out bits in Lumion, the animation is in sketchup without terrain. 

2. Shading devices
These shading devices run on the corten steel on rails which are controlled through a mobile app for students and staff to use if they want shade in an outside area. They can expand horizontally and vertically.  I'd imagine staff control would trump student control in the case of needing the positions changed for show/ecological reasons. They could even be smart and keep you shaded your whole walk through the bridge. Since there was a whole bunch of components and complicated geometry I couldnt do this one in Lumion either.

Thought I'd counter my too straight forward fitting everything nicely into a space thinking with something purely aesthetic, yay for no budget.

I used a sketchup plugin called Shape Bender. Bent once for the vertical curve, then again around the horizontal arc. Lots of trial and error :)
