This is the final concept model I designed to represent the concept of the depot. It originated from the Southern Cross Train Depot in Melbourne, Australia. The ceiling in the Southern Cross Train depot is a series of squares tied together to form a curving pattern/motion, so I tried to mirror that idea with my model in an abstract way. My model features square panels that link together that flow into a curving pattern, similar to Southern cross. I wanted to incorporate my ideas for the hotel into the model as well, so I had the squares curve off into the distance, symbolizing guests' stay at the hotel, as well as representing my artists work. I want the stay in the hotel to be a surreal experience, where guests could get lost in the design of the hotel. My artist, Aaron Reed's photography has the same feeling. The way his pictures develop is almost unreal, which is what I wanted to incorporate into the design of the model. It curves in an unrealistic and playful manner, which is exactly the idea intended for my depot design.
