Power and Landscape

Influenced by the form of Jamison Valley in NSW, Australia my landscape conflicts with conventions of a natural. Glowing trees and artificial tree lamps create a visually charged setting whilst curvaceous structures interfere with the natural mountains, creating man-made caves and hills on top of the natural ones as they cantilever from and dissect the land form.


The offices will be located on floating or cantilevering islands positioned  high above the valley floor to represent hierarchy.

Facebook

'Facebook is a social utility that connects you with the people around you'
The key idea surrounding facebook is connection.


The elevator appears as glowing pixels with a magnified colour intensity to stand out amongst the colourfully lit surrounds. Blue colouring reflects companies branding identity.

The elevator will work that the the character walks on a platform as the pixels wrap around. The lights will flicker and change hue and intensity as the lift travels down along the cliff side in an 'S' movement rather than going down in a straight line. The pixels represent digital media and the concept that a picture is formed by many pixels coming together - connecting.

The office will appear as a pieces of a jigsaw puzzle put together, inspired by tetris and lego.

Coca Cola

Coca Cola - "Open Happiness"
The Coca Cola companies main message infers and associates joy with their products.

The Coca Cola elevator will be an open lift that travels downwards in a fast, rotational manner with the aim of reflecting a ride in a theme park. The Coca Cola offices will be designed as an eccentric theme park or concert hall spanning a large portion of the valley denoting dominance.

The Valley

Inspired by Jamison Valley in NSW, Australia

Valley forms a literal divide.

Trying to create a layered rock look... will play with noise later to see what effect this has.

Jamison Valley, NSW, Australia

Gold Coast, QLD, Australia

- Not necessarily a valley, but 'valley' could be interpreted as a low area between high areas.

- In this environment, you could exaggerate the ratio of water to land and have lots of water and only small islands floating in it then rather than having the bridge actually bridging the environment, it could instead form it; like a man-made landscape.

MashUp

Power in Conflict:
Ideas: Power is achieved through dominance in conflict.
Key Words: Conflict, Dominance, Supremacy, Success.


Take 2 Interactive
Coca Cola
Facebook


A champion is crowned, as leading game developer Take 2 Interactive prevailed in the head-to-head tournament, beating some really stiff competition in its aggressive growth plan aimed at raising its public image and Coca Cola makes an amazing achievement that required great skill and composure in an intense economic transformation. The phenomenal growth of Facebook has shown its staying power and it is poised to join the ranks of tech titans as it endures a tournament atmosphere enhancing its competitiveness in a business with such a high turnover. The site leads globally in revenue, servings and volume. Our belief in these companies is enduring and unshakable as they display skill and poise in combat and such an extraordinary growth potential.
