In my tutorial with Will i explained how i was feeling a little lost and not really knowing what i was doing within the interiors project.
Will was really helpful and i said I'm look at urban architecture and then he suggested that i looked at the architect called Mies Van Der Rohe.
I straight away loved the buildings he had designed as they are all such clean lines and beautiful structures and yet so simple.
So we then said why don't i make something to go into his most famous building - The Barcelona Pavilion
The Barcelona Pavilion building is for many architects their favourite building in the World. It’s architecture is pure poetry, simple honest planes of stone with slim, graceful polished steel cruciform columns. The integration of water through two shallow pools brings calmness and reflection to the pavilion.
The architect Mies van der Rohe was interested in developing free flowing space and this is done using walls as planes in isolation, joined by sliding elements or glass. Thus the wall is expressed as a single element with space flowing around it. The majority of the pavilion building is constructed out of (cream-coloured) travertine which gives the building a luxurious feel and aids the perception of spaciousness. - www.e-architect.co.uk
From looking into the Barcelona Pavilion I'm going to use the colours above from the building to create some knitting interior fabric to complement the architecture
