Putting pieces together.

Cutting and Painting
'each of the walls double painted in white paint'
Once all of the pieces has been carefully cut out by hand and the angles had been shaped in, I wanted to start by putting a base coat onto each individual piece. I decided to use the pure colour of white, which associates with the pages in a book as I want to create some sort of 'paper like' structure folding out.
Whilst making sketch models, I wanted to discover the structures that I can create from re-using books from charity shops and digging through my loft. I like all the different textures and shapes I could create from just bending and cutting into the pages. Changing something flat into something that isn't. Pages do not just need to be looked at as just a flat image.
A reflective space.
Love how this is so simple but the atmosphere that could be created within this interior would be amazing. It takes the same idea I want to include about making it moveable and can change the surroundings.

Development.
Now looking at all the research which I have covered it gives me a lot of ideas and spaces which I could consider making for Lucy.
There is aspects of BABL which I could include making, how someone would read to someone, where they would read it, how they could read something. Looking at the position on someone in the room. Why does someone need to stay sat ona chair or just stay restricted into a workshop to make these books and creative pieces. Why restrict yourself?
The workshop side is very important to Lucy and she travels to different places and book binds here books, even one she said to have made on a boat with a bit of spare floss she had. So this aspect of travel and a place.
There could be numerous ones of these around different view spots that people are local tro or people can visit.
Maybe BABL can be considered in the way that like people can leave me sages they can make the books in theses spaces and leave them there so people can read them themselves also.
Views will need to be considered.
Does the space change at night and in the light, are there aspects of the structure that can change or will it not be able to go into at night. -- this can also be looked at when considering lighting. Making most of the natural light and at night considering the artificial lighting.

Sottovoce by Huub Ubbens
This is a nice idea by Hubb Ubbens who has created a little installation to cover people and you can almost become a part of the piece as well as go and explore it. I am not sure if this is supposed to be a shelter however this is a nice aspect to it that it can take weather into consideration or even in the summer it could be a shaded area. Something so simple of cones making a big bold impact down to its colour and size.
Exploded Globe of Light by Cinimod Studio
A place of refection. This is a place where at might you can look up to this instalation and relax. I love how just one light could change the scene and atmosphere of the room. Lighting is something which mainly can be concidered when it comes to what time in day the space is open or can it change over night and during the day?
Book Light
Lula Dot, the design studio of British designer Lucy Norman,
What else can you do with the paper pages of a book? Maybe it could create the actual structure of the room?
Location
Toronto-based firm GH3 designed the Williams Studio on Stony Lake in Ontario, Canada.
100 Planos Architecture designed the Jorge Guedes’ House in Póvoa de Varzim, Portugal.
Saunders Architecture have designed the Fogo Island Studios located on Fogo Island off the northeast coast of Newfoundland, Canada.
Creating a Space that can be anywhere. As Lucy has said you should be able to bind a book anywhere from her workshop to on a boat and with a bit of left over tooth floss. I like the idea of making ether permanent of a temporary space which can be in a place of reflection. Why limit yourself to four walls, a roof and floor.

FILM
Where to film this clip? Something with no fuss, simple and open.
Somewhere a bit more rugged and decaying?

This also is something which could be possible to use if I decided to include wording or creating a story with images. This is something that obviously would take a lot of time but would be a nice effect to try and include.
