first project, yr two

the concept for this project was to capture the essence of an athlete in an architectural form thus being a building..

the three tiers resembles the symbolic progression to an athlete.bronze, silver, gold

the top structure takes inspiration form human muscles, ligaments and tendons, the unique design also resembles the appearance of a stadium.

the base of the building takes inspiration from body builders allowing the building to be elevated like an athlete standing on a podium.

the bronze shutters on the top are a key part of the design. resembles the feeling an athlete embraces when competing.closed being shut of in there own place, open means that they are zoning in on its prize.

the two vertical supports give the illusion that its holding a lot of tension, ready to release its energy as does a sprinter do when taking off the starting line.

the building stands proud and confident as does an athlete do when showing off their trophy.
