Lucy May Schofield-BABL

 Lucy's work evolves from strong emotional elements of life such as unrequited love and death.I have decided to look at and examine the theme of ligfht and dark.By exploring this theme I am able to corner a certain element of Luc'ys work and concentrate on this area.Lucy May Schofield has created a service called bibliotherapy,bibliothgerapy consists of Lucy interacting and speaking,reading with the general public.This service allows people of all ages to take time out of their day to open up and relax.When Lucy mentioned this to us she mentioned that a variety of people use this service,all with contrasting feelings.

I intend to create a space or 'spaces' that Lucy can accomodate her clients,I also intend to look at the physicality and general emotions that tie in with this service

Final Model build up











 I documented the build up and design of my model.I have found this model quite difficult to physically put together.I've already encountered problems with elements such as the glueing of the perspex panels.I've found that the glue has overlapped and I can't get the excess off the panel's,leaving it looking a bit messy.Another problem is the actual design of the spaces.The 2nd floor space was originally going to be half clear perspex and half black perspex,but I've had to refer back to complete clear perspex.

Problems such as the seating being able to be move between the 3 spaces,I was unable to cut through the 2 base floors of the space as the structure would not be able to be assembled.





This is an underground home designed by KWK homes,The theme of obscurity and natural elements is the main objective of this space.I think I can look at and develop work for my final model using ideas and small aspects that are shown here,such as the stairs which are hidden and the vast use of glass.

Sketch Model




These are a few photo's I took of one of the sketch models I made,I made these from greycard instead of asatate as it was too thin and I couldn't construct it properly.Hopefully my final design will be a lot more sturdy and more clean looking.
