The botton right sketch labeled "verb, artist 2/verb, artist 1" is where the model is derived from. The word for above is "disrupt" from Tracey Moffet's "Something More". I had imagined a huge, harsh, jutting geometric shape imposed upon the landscape, slightly hovering. The word for the structure underneath is "remain", so my design is rather subdued and simple.
For the structure above ground I chose white brick contrasted with a wooden cladding on the tubular stairwell, which is echoed underneath the small stairs between the two landings. The underground structure I built out of simple, sturdy cement brick, covering the roof in grass. The cantilever stairs leading from the first floor to ground level is of a light metal, to give the effect that everything is floating off the ground with minimal support.
