Final model in google sketchup 3D warehouse...

After hours of trying to upload my model onto google warehouse last night since about 8pm, both through sketchup itself and 3D warehouse website it just will not work. Trying directly through google sketchup i keep receiving "UNAUTHORISED" whilst trying online it just keeps loading and loading for hours... 


So taking Russell's advice to another student I have uploaded my final product onto Rapid Share both in .skp and .kmz form....I hope this is okay and when i am in uni on tuesday will try to upload it onto warehouse. 


Here is the link for my google sketchup model in SKP form: http://rapidshare.com/files/454716160/Final_Google_Sketchup_Model_-_Alyse_Hyman.skp
Here is the link for my model in KMZ form:

Applied textures to SketchUp model....

Images of my google sketchup model with my textures embedded...

"Natural" texture added to David Malangi's studio to highlight the unusual pattern of the glass

"Porous" texture added to one of the front walls of Ron Mueck's studio to enhance the unique shapes that exist within his studio space as well as to draw the viewers eye inside the studio. 
"Abrasive" texture added to Ron Mueck's studio to create a contrast between the starkness of the white shapes with that of the texture and thus bring that particular shape to the forefront.

a short video....


The video I have chosen, entitled "strange architecture", expresses the fact that we live in a world where everything has an element of deja vu associated with it, thus through creating structures that lie on the periphery of society, architects are able to challenge and modify peoples opinions towards what a structure can or can not be. This, I believe was a major factor in the scheme of my google sketchup model, where I was inspired by these unusual structures to create my own 'strange' piece of architecture.

Sections of stairs going up from artist studio to the exhibition space

Whilst my google sketchup model of my stairs are not an exact replica of my sectional sketches, i drew inspiration from my sketches whilst designing my staircase model as evident through the triangular shapes and unusual curve of the stairs.
