Design Process

Figure One.

To initiate my design process, I started at observing the motions involved in running and investigating the shapes that I could create as a result of this. Analysing these movements revealed the repetition involved with the sport. I further formalised these figures by distorting the shapes and repeating them to mimic the running sequence. Using the repetition of these movements is a concept which will be interesting to explore further within my work.

Figure Two.

I contextualised the inside and surrounding exterior of my space by creating a three-dimensional model of the building. Producing a 1:100 and 1:200 scale model allowed me to visualise the interior within its surrounding context, which for my project which focuses on running, is crucial. To begin creating my spatial design I sketched on top of these images to understand how I can take my interior design out and through to the exterior.

Figure Three.

Using my previous sketches, I continued to visualise my space and design specific details, such as the changing rooms. I continued creating my space three dimensionally, and I modelled a 1:200 maquette as my first iteration of the space. I further developed this design by photographing it and sketching on top, to create my final design proposal.
