AN ANTIQUE EMPORIUM 

ATTRACTING PUBLIC, COLLECTORS, ENTHUSIASTS AND EVEN CORPORATE USAGE

Main Objectives Of The Scheme 

- Developing the planning solution for a fairly complex building accommodation schedule requiring multiple storey and volumetric development.

- To investigate the architectural requirements of the nature of particular activities and design a building that accommodates and caters for these requirements.

- The development of an appropriate structural response for large space/s provision.

- To investigate appropriate spatial responses in both plan and section to accommodate the technicalities of the programmed activities but in particular to accommodate and celebrate the social interaction patterns of the user groups who will enjoy the facility you create for them.

- The development of a suitable contextual response contributing to and enhancing (urban) context.

- The development of an appropriate aesthetic and economic response.

- The investigation of appropriate materials and construction methods – remember flooding.

We had a brief that was entitled The Four Elements- we had to represents this through art. We had to choose the elements: all of them, pair them, only one of them. I chose to work with the Air element! I am heavily inspired by Studio Ghibli animation, especially their beautiful art style and story lines. Afterwards, I took that inspiration and I drew a design for the Air World.

I made a world where the humans are small sized (inspired by Arrietty, animation movie) and they live in the hot air balloons. The other elements don’t exist within this universe. The purple balloons represent the little houses they live in, the middle one is the ‘Town Hall’, or Balloon Hall. It is where they all meet and socialise! The dragons are not always visible, as they are the Air spirits and they protect the world from evil and pollution. They maintain the harmony and balance between air and humanity. The main blue dragon is inspired by Haku from Spirited Away. He is the big protector and has the most power over the Air World. Spirits seem to be a common element in Japanese animation as people tend to ask for their guidance and protection at times. The smaller dragons are inspired by Pokemon, they represent the rest of the air spirits that do the rest of the work by protecting whatever needed.

Due to very tight timeline it is not as polished or even the desired scale. However, this must be one of my favourite projects. I would love to transfer this idea onto a real space; it would not only suit the young generation but also Studio Ghibli fans, which include a lot of adults. I chose fantasy as my subject because I felt the need for positivity as the world seems to be crippling in climate change and air pollution. I made all the objects by hand, excluding the frame. I kept it very light and worked with paper and textile, so it is not heavy to maintain or carry. The spirits were going to be made out of modelling clay but the clay was much heavier than I thought. Anyways, I would still love to go back to this idea of using the material as it is malleable and very versatile. Paper has been one of my struggles, but I seem to be getting better with it. This could easily be turned into a major project as well, which will hopefully influence future ones!

First Project: Something you care about campaign

Canton City Marathon

About:

    Canton City Marathon is a non-profit organization run by RunCanton Inc., which is dedicated to promoting health and fitness while raising funds for select local charities.  RunCanton designates a specific charitable organization to benefit from each event it presents. The Canton City Marathon is unique in that it offers participants the opportunity to choose a beneficiary from all of the charities that Canton City Marathon serves. The charities are local organizations or chapters that truly make a difference in the lives they touch. runCanton donates a portion of every entry fee to the designee of your choice, and invites participants to add a donation. The charities are expected to be involved in the events by volunteering and encouraging participation.

Here is a list of the charities that Canton City Marathon help support:

 Bridge Point (Community Services assists individuals and families in need by providing food, clothing, shoes, furniture and personal care items).

Hammer & Nails (assists disadvantaged Stark County homeowners with home and property improvements)

Perry Helping Perry (mission is to come together as a community, joining church, school, civic groups and area businesses to pool resources to help feed and clothe Perry residents in need.).

 Team RWB (mission is to enrich the lives of America’s veterans by connecting them to their community through physical and social activity).

 Wiles Wellness Foundation (supports wellness for those affected by pregnancy and infant loss by advocating for and raising awareness of their unique needs).

            CCM is a September marathon on the streets of canton, which is half marathon and half 10k. The marathon requires one to be psychically fit, but others can participate and walk as well. I really like this program because I think fitness is really important for everyone, as well as a charitable cause.
