Selected Models:
The Brazilian Museum of Sculpture is built in 1968 designed by the Architect Paulo Mendes da Rocha, which is located in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The museum and the landscape is treated as a whole and it uses large concrete slabs to create partly underground internal spaces and also to form an exterior plaza with water pools and an esplanade.
The 21st Century of Contemporary Art is built in 2004 designed by the Architects Kazuyo Sejima and Ryue Nishizawa of the architect office SANAA, located in Kanazawa, Ishikawa, Japan. The shape aims to keep the appearance of the building low, allowing access from multiple points of entry. The transparency of the building conveys that the museum is relatively small.
Church of Light
The Church of Light is the main chapel of the Ibaraki Kasugaoka Church, a member church of the United Church of Christ in Japan. The building is built in 1989 in the city of Ibaraki, Osaka, Japan, by the Architect Tadao Ando.
Reflection:
This week Russell explained and introduced project 2 to the whole lecture. He gave us 6 different models and we are required to choose one of the 6 models to model the decay of the building; He also showed us some past examples of how buildings are destroyed/decayed.
