Research

hey guys,


i was just hovering over the internet over the weekend and the following are some images that caught my eye.



This is a bus shelter from the Netherlands. I've put this in due to its smooth characteristics, and also that despite the fact that we need it to be structurally possible, we also need to consider its design aesthetics, as discussed on Friday. I hope that we can come to some sort of concreted resolution as to how we are to maintain a smooth design and prevent it from looking too engineered.





I've included this because to me this is how i am perceiving the design of the verandah. It is about the closest image I can find that resembles our intentions.

This small sketch is from a website and is a sketch of a proposed Yarra Trams bus shelter. Very different in design and materials, however maybe we can further our research of the design of the roof and apply it to our design?
