FINAL MAP - EXTRAS





FINAL MAP IMAGES



Carlos Slim's space was designed to reflect the power he has over companies. Particularly, the telecommunications industry, which he seems to have monopolised to become his own empire.

The meeting space is smaller to reflect that no matter how powerful a person is they are still human, & still need to have meals.


Zhang Yin's space reflects my interpretation of her as a highly independent & determined woman. The interlocking planes represent simplicity with initiative.

WHAT I LEARNT ...TIPS/ TRICKS:

Basically everything we did was new for me, so I learnt a lot but here are some of the most useful:

- ask someone for help when you have no idea what to do - ask classmates, the tutors, lecturers, or literally anyone who looks like they no what they're doing. This is really helpful especially for learning all the new software- you find exactly what you need to know & save heaps of time!
- listen to what the tutors mention in class, even if it doen't apply directly to your own work at the time...it probably will at some stage.
-Something I found really handy using Unreal:when you want to copy multiple objects or replicate a set of the same objects quickly - hold down the 'CTRL' button and left click the objects you want. This allows you to select & deselect exacly what you need. From there you can copy & paste as you wish...but remember to rebuild all geometries at the end.
