Electroliquid Aggregation

Nicole Kuepper

"What started off as a brainstorming session has resulted in the iJET cell concept that uses low-cost and low-temperature processes, such as ink-jet printing and pizza ovens, to manufacture solar cells."

Charles Darwin

"As many more individuals of each species are born than can possibly survive; and as, consequently, there is a frequently recurring struggle for existence, it follows that any being, if it vary however slightly in any manner profitable to itself, under the complex and sometimes varying conditions of life, will have a better chance of surviving, and thus be naturally selected. From the strong principle of inheritance, any selected variety will tend to propagate its new and modified form"

EXP2 - 9 axonometric sketches





The bottom images are the earlier sketches and so are quite rough, as I was still getting used to doing axonometric drawings. Using a pencil first is a much neater way of doing it so you can rub out the lines that are important for when you are drawing them but not seen in the final solid.

Model Animation



This animation shows the floor plan of my model. And how the stairs i designed relates to the two levels it joins. The walls appear to have no depth to them however there is, i have made the model very thin in wall and glass depth to give it a lighter feel instead of a heavy exterior appearance.


This video exhibits a sweep through the model from one side to the other. Its aim is to give the viewer an idea of the two floors functioning together in one building



This video shows off the model from different angles and less obvious sections. The view I particularly wanted to demonstrate was Piccinini's triangle work space in her below ground workshop and

Developed Sketchup Model







Under ground workshop of Piccinini. Custom textures on floor and walls. This workshop is timber based with red brick flooring. The custom texture on the wall is a carved timber which shows water drop like patterns.





Back view of Model. Notice the glass floor window which allows natural sunlight through to the underground workshop. The two above ground levels are mainly glass to allow maximum sunlight.
Front view of Model. Goodwin's workshop is more of a balcony with only a glass cover. The glass cover is set very high because it allows a lot of open space in the gallery. The open space is intended to allow room for an "explosion"which is also the title of Goodwin's artwork.
