scale: 1/4" = 1'0
instructor: Ely Merheb
I created a calm space for meditation inspired by a 'moment' in my previous project (line-square-rectangle). I emphasized the idea of progression through a rising, inward spiral pathway that leads inside to a wooden seat. In this project I analyzed proportions of shapes and thicknesses of the different components and their relationships to each other. I also experimented with how light entered the space; there were no 'windows.' Only slits of light between the walls, floor, and ceiling.
*The top photo illustrates the slits of light and a close up of the constructed wooden seat. In the center picture, the slat of wood is cut way at the bottom to allow light to enter between the layers/steps of the floor leading to the seat. The bottom picture illustrates the entire path/progression from outside to inside.
