3D Simulator

The assignment asked that I make a 3D representation of my concept that gives a sensorial simulation of the experience of my space. My ‘Simulator’ will be a performative representation of my interior environment and demonstrate a sense of the personality of my space.

CASA
Where you're always welcome…

I would like to transform the space of the substation into a culinary institution - a place where you can drop in any day, any time and take a cooking class. I imagine my space will look homey and feel warm with the smell of delicious Italian aromas. Therefore I chose to make a candle, as it is symbolic of warmth and coziness. While making the candle, I dyed the wax red, white and green, to represent the Italian colors, but when I tried layering them they blended into one color instead. Although I haven't been to Italy, I have visited Little Italy in NY, which is located on Mulberry Street, which is why I chose the scent to be Mulberry. As this was my first ever attempt at making a candle, I faced a few challenges and did not know exactly what I was doing, which is a common feeling when a beginner is learning how to cook - there is always a risk factor, that what we are making may not turn out to be perfect, so in this sense as well, I believe my candle is a direct representation of my space.

The follwoing are some images which symbolise the ‘personality/mood’ that I imagine my space to have:
