Sendai Mediatheque - Toyo Ito (2000)
The section below is another example of a more computer illustrated section. With that in mind, the section draws major similarities to the way my sections will look when completed in shape and form. The free flowing form of the structural elements seen moving throughout the building are another example of architectural elements similar to my light shafts within my building. The structures within this building also allow light and air to move through the building (like the underground community) as well as access. It is also similar in the these shafts are located in various points of communal congregation throughout the building. The building shape itself is another similar feature, due to the very square form of the levels but with a more fluid form within. The colour and tone techniques from this section will not be used within my sections as I believe the water colour techniques of the other sections will be more effective in portraying the qualities of the underground community.
The buildings 'community' aspect through a number of activities to be undertaken within is similar to the communal purpose of the underground community.
The images above and below show the various shaft that move through the building from bottom to top and provide air, light and sometimes access through the building.
