Fibonacci Cube
Greek architects used the fibonacci spiral and the golden ration as a essential to their designs. The fibonacci sequence shows certain numerical patterns and later turned out to have a interesting and importance to architects.
Model
|
|
The model consists of six planes being added to my three plane model and some 1/8 basswood elements being added to the whole model. The basswood is suppose to complete the openings of my cube and define the openings. These six planes will then create solid panels into my three plane model design.
Three Plane Model Design
This is a design of my original three plane model. On the left side you could see the design of the model in four different views. On the right side you could see the original three plane model.
Perspective View
This is my perspective view drawing. There some difficulties drawing this because this was the first time I ever drew a perspective view of anything. One of the reason I choose this spot to be my perspective view was because it has a view of the outside of the model and a view of the inside of the model.

Cube Drawing
This is a design of my three plane model in red with six other planes forming a cube with bass wood attach to it. I was going for a modern looking type of house. |
Site Plan Drawing |
Elevation Plan Drawings |
The little circles are trees making a path to the tower. The reason the two towers are not facing each other is so they could see who is coming in and who is coming out of the tower.
|
The two parallel lines in the elevations represents an elevator. The reason I did't use stairs is because and elevator is a faster way to get up to the tower instead of using the stairs. The elevator also adds a new and looking feature of the tower in my opinion.

Floor Drawings
These are my floor plans of my tower. Unlike other towers my classmates have done my tower only contains 2 floors.
Study Model |
Final Model |
I made a few adjustments to my study model by adding a few more bass wood in the back and taking some of the bass wood away in the second floor so it could have a patio.
|
This is my unfinished final model tower. Its supposed to look like my study model and being more taller.
