CONCEPT MODELLING,
LIGHT & COLOUR.
The atmosphere I imagine my scheme to be is calming, relaxed and safe. To explore
a variety of design concepts, I began by creating various paint swatches and water
colour strips, and placing them inside a model of the site. The green and violet
quadrant of the colour wheel has been explored through the colours chosen,
representing natural and calming effects to the user within the site. By combining
shades of green, turquoise and light brown, I generated several patterns that when
crossed over, create a tranquil environment with a biophilic approach.

I began this process by creating abstract patterns onto
plain paper using water colours and acrylic paint. I then
cut the papers into strips, folding them into various shapes
and placing them within a concept model of the chosen
site. This process allowed me experiment different
routes and structures in a unique way, creating primary
concept plans for my scheme.
The words below describe a nomenclature of colour; a
list of nouns and adjectives that describe colours that I
will use in my project.
