My folly is inspired by the theory Consistency vs Creativity and follows on from my first draft of the bridge design, using recursive iterations. The folly features what appear to be six doorways in scale which turn a corner and twist and rise into pointlessness. This is to mirror the innovative design process of an engineering student at the school; it begins rationally and can rapidly turn into something complex. The 'doorways' anchoring the twisting frame to the ground represents a grounding force, reminding the students to stay grounded in their design process and to stay practical rather than develop ideas that are too unrealistic. Practicality is of huge importance in engineering which is why I have chosen to incorporate this into my design. |
