Kitty O'Grady: May 2010 Archives

In this raw preview of plate 13, we look at a chunk of the more conventional archive where we store data and paper books. The emphasis is on circulation and how this is really built into the archive landscape.
Plate 12 looks inside the rare book archive with relationship to the old/ the past in echo of the Re-brief first section.
Still need to model the vertical collection between the exterior facilities within the fortifications and the underground galleries.
Also render should really show the section of the fortification wall together with the line drawing on top of the image




The following top plates are v. quick renders of Plate 11. I just added one shot without the fill (top one) so that you can see the spaces.
I've been remodelling this part of the archive in accordance with the program of the rare book collection which is to provide absolute protection and preservation, so it's architectural language (somehow) follows the same as the fortication geometry.
The line section that will be added on to the front will provide more info about this (to come)

Sorry I know you really can't see anything but don't want to break the blog once again!
I am currently rendering the long section in 5 plates.
I just finished setting up the model and asigned various materials to each object in order to render earth, shell of the library, etc...
more to come as soon as I start to get some clear renders....
