Over the summer, in between year 1 and 2, I was tasked with creating a concept of a house that had to be based around this extract form 'Memoirs of a Geisha'
"In our little fishing village of Yoroido, I lived in what I called a "tipsy house." It stood near a cliff where the wind off the ocean was always blowing. As a child it seemed to me as if the ocean had caught a terrible cold, because it was always wheezing and there would be spells when it let out a huge sneeze--which is to say there was a burst of wind with a tremendous spray. I decided our tiny house must have been offended by the ocean sneezing in its face from time to time, and took to leaning back because it wanted to get out of the way. Probably it would have collapsed if my father hadn't cut a timber from a wrecked fishing boat to prop up the eaves, which made the house look like a tipsy old man leaning on his crutch."
From this I did a a few sketches from witch I made a refined drawing. This later turned into a full colour drawing. Here I'm only going to show a sample of my drawings as there is really to much to post here without it looking messy.
I also did a whole document of written research and development that I will also be leaving out of this post. Anyway enjoy the pictures!
