I rushed to finish the charcoal image at the museum and it didn't show the two perspectives clearly, they merged and appeared as one :S For the homework sketch from memory, I made it more obvious as to the different perspectives, the viewing box vs the stairs.

Tunnel :D :D
My tunnel book was based on the interior space and logo of Thaina Box on Church street parramatta. The logo corresponds with my chosen colour scheme (blue and orange) although the interiors almost have nothing to do with them.
The menue and casual section of the resteraunt vaguely follow the blu-orange theme but the formal half changes. This part is upstairs and towards the back, and includes black walls with thin gold patterns. The furniture is a dark rich wood with dark red leather chairs. One wall is a mirror covered with bamboo sticks to give the illusion of a larger space as the resteraunt in extremely thin and long.
My tunnel is split into to halves. The smaller half is just a colour scheme, while the second larger half includes a slightly abstracted application of the scheme reflecting the interior space.

Luis Barragan Face Map
In this face map I tried to map Logic (blue) and Crativity (orange).
Since Barragan was an engineer before he was an architect, I decided to map his thoughts and how he expresses himself.
His mind is predominantly that of an engineer (hence the blue) and the highest concentration of blue is near his brain. His clothing and eyes are orange, as his clothing is an expression of his creativity and his eyes see things creatively. His lips are both blue and orange as they evenly express his ideas. his glasses and the rest of the space around him are grey as they frame his view of the world and his surrounding are grey as they are yet to expreience and be formed into his works.

I choose Luis Barragab's House and studio for my collage. I wanted to create somethign simple and effective to emphasise his sue of colour. For the plan (above) I made use of stepping stones to work my way through the rooms. My use of colour was simple and consistent with my choice of blue and orange. The stepping stones came from the idea of mosaic and peak in the garden - leading all focus to the outdoors.
For the cross section below I painted wach room rather than fill it in with paint or photoshop again to allude to the texture of the walls; then added greyscale/low saturated images ( furniture and empty frames) to exaggerate and further solidify that colour. I finally mirrored a tree to frame the cross section.

Natural Colour 2: Strawberry Poison Dart Frog
This random frog lol was an interesting combination of an orange red and a dark navy blue. A simple and striking combination of colour not so commonly found in our natural surroundings.
The image above represents the colout proprions of the Frog while the image below is another similar adaptation to a view of Barragan's house and studio.
