All about the Concept

The concept is finally coming together, check it out.

My Inspiration behind the concept is this sketch of my hammock swing that I bought in Cartagena, Columbia.


I posted earlier on this significance of this object but I wanted to share my concept statement and explain how I think it ties into my hammock swing.




Statement: (still refining)

The harmony of the natural environment that instills serenity through the motions of wind, water, and light. The integration of nature woven into the built environment.



The movement of the hammock swing instills serenity through its swaying motion much like the movement of nature’s key elements of wind, water, and Light. I also choose these elements because of its use in creating alternative energies. I think that much like the hammock is woven with natural fiber that the concept should have nature woven throughout the site. In addition, the woven cord on the hammock is its main support and the concept should therefore be supported with nature’s principle for sustainability.

I will continue to add to this as it develops
