Note to shaowen: file fronts are further down.
when in versace's office, wait for central elevator, when this stops on the bottom level, jump to make it move to lower level. Thanks

5 real time image captures of developed ut2004 environment

Versace's office is central, whilst her workers offices spiral around her like a fashion accessory, highlighting her absolute power which demands attention. The presence of superficial embelishment highlights from where versace draws her power.
texture in the meeting place highlights this tension, yet the lighting and table attempt to provide an environment in which power is stablised.

Each clients entry to the meeting poit is dark, representing the tension created by their opposing types of power and personalities.


dark, dramatic corridor before entering steve jobs office highlights his struggle to power.



A clean, ordered, simplicty characterises Steve Jobs office, as these are characteristics of his desings and hence source of his power. A monumental appearance and view of apple as an 'empire' ws also important in expressing Jobs' immense power.

sketchup elevators and table - development



whilst the apple elevater may be cliche, i feel that Steve Jobs displays a kind of arrongant, vindictive power and therefore seems as one who would travel in the symbol of their own power.


i opted for a simplistec table design. the obvious dicision of the table in two symbolises the very different kind of power which Versace and Steve Jobs posses. However each side needs the support of the other to stand and in this way an equality is achieved when they meet for working lunches.

week 4 - peer review






week 3 - draft elevators and table

still unhappy with this table

decided to change previous, clam like/venus elevator to a less obvious more modern adaptation

week 2 - draft elevator






this is my draft elevator for Versace, i was going for a venus analogy, but i dont like the outcoem and will ahev to give this elevator more thought later.
