Week 3 Studio Task

• Give your blog address to your tutor, and show your tutor your 5 creations from last weeks tasks.


• With the help of your tutor, pick two of your Creatures that you are most interested in developing habitats/dwellings for.


• Do quick sketches of a habitat/dwelling for each of your two chosen creatures, using a drawing implement and paper. Think of your creatures as your clients, creating a space which captures the personality of your creations.

• Start with some expressive sketching that explore the emotive themes of your habitat/dwelling for each creature.
  

• Then sketch a rough site map, a minimum of two sections, minimum of 1 plan, at least two perspective sketches that capture the main elements of your ideas for each habitat, and a minimum of two details of your environments.

• Do the previous two sets of drawings for each of your creature's habitats.

• These sketches should convey a solid understanding of your environments, and should all be little pieces of art in their own right.
  


• As your ideas develop on paper, start to transfer your sketched ideas to Sketchup as rough 3D sketches which you can use to assist your understanding of the 3D nature of your creatures' habitats, creating a 3D dwelling for each of your 2 creatures.

• Alternate between your sketches and Sketchup to refine and develop your ideas.

• Be sure to capture images of your developing Sketchup environments that show the progression of your ideas.
  


• In consultation with your tutor, choose one of schemes to continue to develop outside of class.
