1.2 [cOmponents]...

Space 1 - kit; 2 solids

Space 2 - kit; one column, two walls

Space 3 - kit; one wall, two columns

Provided with the concept word revolve, immediately what came to mind was revolving doors and walls and windows. I wanted to venture away from that which was so literal and came upon words and definitions like to move in a circular or curving course or orbit, to focus or center on and to think about or consider. When considering how to layout my spaces i had to take into account the sizes provided and the 3 kit of parts. Within the first space i focused on a place for consideration. A small, intimate space used for reflection and the revolution around ideas. I chose to use the two solids kit because the space is already the smallest of the three, i wanted to utilize the space rather than add walls to make it any smaller. The second, I concentrated around the word "orbit". I placed a column in the center of the space and am centering the individual spaces around it. The third focused around physically revolving a space. A curved wall placed right at the door forces the figure to move in a specific direction. These diagrams help illustrate the circulation, destinations, boundaries and objects of the spaces. You may notice how there is some overlap showing that majority of the individual areas within the small space can easily be multifunctional.
