This project was absolutely awesome! I enjoyed every aspect of it up until the painting because the paint, my object, and I were not agreeing upon what color stayed. Besides that point, I decided to make my Utopian building futuristic. My building is supposed to represent a Hospital, a Police Station, and a Fire station. My main inspiration was that of a tree of life so I decided to have the structure based upon a tree. The "Trunk" of my building is colored brown with a grey entrance because it is a building and people will need to understand that it is an entrance. I decided that I would add some green to the middle of the building to represent life especially since the middle looked like it already had vines on it. I added orange to the pods on the base to represent energy and growth. As you move up the tree, there's a circular doughnut combine with more pods on top of it. This was supposed to be colored green because it is a tree but I decided that since it's futuristic and it is a combination of things, I would paint it in colors that represented those buildings. Red and blue for the Police station. Red and white for the Fire station. White for the hospital. One thing I would have liked for this model was that it was bigger than it is. Originally I wanted it to be maybe 4 inches so I can possibly paint it easier. Also because it's a tree and their big. All in all, it was a fun project.
This building was a collaborative building with Allie. We were in charge of making an info. booth for the city and this is how it turned out. We wanted it to be a small building with a cone shape for it's design, so it can be easily spotted. Info. booths aren't normally big anyway so this was was pretty spot on. I'm glad with the way it turned out and how Allie and I designed it. One thing that disappointed me with this model is that it didn't print out the way we envisioned it but when life gives you lemons, you make lemonade.
