Before I first start this assignment, I had looked at the little creatures made by other people, there are different kinds of creatures, and some looks like monsters, and some are even looks like furniture. I tried to use different functions in the SPORE software to modify the shape of the creature. And finally, by refining the shapes and add some decorations to it, I made my first creature called Angelacowdy, which looks very cute and related to my fold papers; the software helps me to model things that I want into the screen, turns a thought into reality.
After I finished the creatures, I need to create an environment for the creatures. I think it is very important to fit my creatures into the environment but not only just create a random environment and put the creatures in it. So I start analyzing my creatures’ lifestyle, features and then get a clue about what type of environments I’m goanna make. Because I had be taught how to use sandbox in last semester, I used sandbox to create the environment, I created a very natural based environment, where full of ‘green effect’.
When It comes to design a building for the creatures, I did feel hard even though I had did the similar things in studio class in semester1. I did some hand drawings of my creatures and the environments that I made. When all the informations are linked together, I got the idea of what I want to make, and I finally create a building which has a similar shape of my creature that provides a comfort bedroom and very wide area for entertaining.
The architect that I chosen did a very important impact on this assignment, because the architect that I chose is Zaha Hadid, her works are very impressive, gaint and unique.
