Journey/experience map


A way of showing/ explaining the experience of going through this gym that i used was by explaining it in text and showing it through illustration and obvious arrows.

This week my idea is (2)

This week my idea is a Gymnastics gym.I decided on this idea because of two reasons, the first is that i like gymnastics and i really enjoyed it as a kid and the second because i told my cousin about it and she said she wouldn't talk to me if i didn't do it... I searched up normal gym equipment on google and made a list in my mind map to add into my drawings later. Choosing the right colours and textures to go with what i remember from when i was younger was a struggle to i completely changed my view on what i saw my boat sheds looking like and made most of the equipment red, blue, a yellow/orange colour or wood. Normally the floor is also covered in matts but adding more matts would distract the person looking at the new drawing and they wouldn't notice the more important matts that are part of the equipment.

My drawings for my 2nd idea after I've added to them on photoshop.





Plan, section, elevation and perspective drawings -idea 2


 These two section drawings are from both ends of the boat shed looking at the opposite walls.




COOL BOOK !!!!!






We were asked to go to the library and get a 'cool book' out. I chose this book because of the main colour and how it attracts my eye personally also because the strips of collage placed over the original photograph are lighter and more colourful than the photograph behind.

Gymnastics mind map

Before i started drawing up what i thought my boat sheds would look like i wrote down a few things that i think of when i think about gymnastics, not just the equipment but the physical skills needed for the tricks.
