Exemplars

After analysing my folie and determining the core concepts I initially thought of the idea of an educational environmental centre that focusses on the positive actions that can be made to start reinventing the environment. There is always so much emphasis on the negative impacts that we have had on the world but I do not believe that there is enough information given to children about that positive ideas that we can practice to create a more positive future, environmentally. The following exemplar was very interesting to me as I enjoyed the idea of the green grass walls. The school is designed by Spanish architecture firm Estudio Huma and was created with the ideal of teaching from nature.

 



The following design by Studio Daniel Libeskind correlates directly to my folie through the angular panels and geometric/paper-like structure. I found this home to be very interesting in the way that the architect did not focus directly on the usage of the home (the residents did not care for this) but more the almost non-existant distinction between the interior and exterior.
