sketchup progress wk1
This is the sketchup model that was made purely inspired by the combination of 'sharp' and 'triumph'. A rather elongated 2D model was achieved initially as I continuously explore the different ways of using sketchup.

UFO Concept
As the stairs are being developed, the structure of the building is used in conjunction with the section sketch of 'future' and 'triumph'. The idea is to separate the initial building into a few UFOs, one 'levitating' above a few 'crashed' and 'deteriorated' UFOs; portraying the ultimate effect of invasion and growth over years.
With this concept, it powerfully demonstrates the effect that the clients have on the future of fashion (Gucci) and transportation (Revival Cycles). This works as Gucci strives for a contemporary with classic design and Revival Cycles approaches a classic yet futuristic and modern design.

UFO Concept #2
The model portrays the deterioration and development of an alien tribe after existing on the earth over years. The underground floor and the 'UFO' that is above the ground are workshops for our client, whilst the grounded UFO is where exhibitions for the display of product would be held.
Viewing platform on a 'separate' island and on an elevated platform are available for any visitors.
The dystopian, futuristic, yet classic shapes and textures of the architecture demonstrates an effect of evolution of architecture, hence reflecting on our clients'(Gucci's) work, the evolution of classic-contemporary fashion.

Textures in sketchup model
The first texture shows the custom texture made in relevance to the word 'supernatural' used on the UFOs, which further consolidates the extraterrestrial phenomenon.
The second texture shows the custom texture made in relevance to the word 'groundbreaking', which could define supermaterials in a way, at the same time demonstrating a literal groundbreaker, crashed pieces of the UFO, also portraying the strength of the material.
The third texture shows the custom texture imported for the workshop underground. This texture is made following the word 'common'. This provides the underground workshop with a more organized work environment - procedural.
