No.1, I have to admit and say quite lazy idea, I was simply looking out the window past the railways, where this oddly familiar looking building stands. It's a building I've grown to be quite accustomed to, seen developed, so no damage in trying to change it, or should I say just cut out a circle from one end.
No.2 Is inspired by the Hakuba Landstation, trying to figure out how to open up a building like that so the cabins could exit.
No.3 Is the two wooden parts of the pegs, just the top one is rotated and laid above the other one so that the circle is still present. This Design is a bit small, so I wouldn't imagine it as the main station as the station needs to accommodate some type of retail. No.4 is again two peg parts laid on top of a rectangle, and the ends of each component is different, the top uses the arches, and the bottom the original triangles.
No.5 is the peg pinched and laid on a flat surface, that structure is then repeated with spaces between each for glass and separation so everything isn't too cluttered. The circle of the peg is still used, as a walkway which would create a surreal experience before taking the lifts. No.6 is another take on previous idea No.4 with only the top part changed out. No.7 is literally a peg, I thought it would be funny to go with the most basic idea possible, and it works alright, the standout part for me is the entrance and lookout that are on each extremities.
No.8 is a take on the smaller station, or the arrival for atop the mountain, it is simple and effective. I wouldn't want to put an obstructive structure at the peak because it would just be a stain on perfect landscape. No.9 is a design for the pillars, after 8 designs I realised that it would make sense that all components of the lift be fluent in design, therefore the peg needed to be present. After that it is self-explanatory it is one of the peg parts, just mirrored. No.10 is the same idea as No.5, it is the pinched peg. Only this time the circular archway is elevated and the whole design thiner; only the inner lines are used, not the outer shell that thickens everything.
What I like about design development is the reflection after. Seeing all the different ways I've interpreted the brief is amazing to see. Then the filtering and adjusting stage begins, you revisit the design and notice the strength and weakness and expand upon them, or sideline the ones that are not worth the while.
