FINAL MODEL


Below is a link to my final Unreal Ed model:





Final design.

The structured pathway through the design is a simple circuit. To neutralise the meeting space I have designed the elevators to work such that Prada must go up to meet Obama in his office, so that they can both enter the meeting space together. Once lunch is over, Obama must accompany Prada back to her work space, before continuing back up to his office. This creates a connection between the two clients that extends beyond simply having lunch together.




Obama's entrance hall. Intimidating initially, until the columns react to the client's presence and sink creating openings to the outside.

Elevator up to Obama's office; the building responds to the client, enhancing a feeling of power.




Obama's office, classically simple yet warm; different to the intimidating entrance hall before.




The meeting space and dining table for Obama and Prada to share their lunch in a neutral environment.




The meeting space. The dining table and chairs rise back up as Prada and Obama leave.




Prada's building is constantly pumping, working hard to maintain the status and power of the "Prada" label.
