DESIGN TWO

After feedback from my tutor, my initial design and narrative wasn't going too far and suggested that the more out there the narrative is, a broader range of designs can happen.
looking at the painting again, I realised that the painting was done in 1926, three years before The Great Depression so I took that and came up with this as my new narrative.

NARRATIVE: looking into the future, bad things are going to happen

With my new narrative, I thought my design could represent a timeline of events. A timeline of events of her life. I designed a set of stairs which represented time and as she walked up the stairs the windows which she would look out, would decrease in size until she would get to the top where there was no more windows, symbolising that life is over.



After some feedback from my tutor, he suggested that it would work better if the stairs weren't in a square formation but a spiral formation as it would help emphasise that life is never-ending.


Just a few designs I did on SketchUp to explore what types of stairs I could do
