Lighthouse
November, 2019
At school we got an assignment to design a place where people can sit based on a story. First of all we had to come up with a story. My story was about a person that lived on an island where he had everything he wanted. But due to a lightning strike he lost everything, that's when he got a boat and sailed into the open ocean, he was hopelessly lost in the open ocean until he found a Lighthouse. When he climbed onto the lighthouse and saw that the windows were round and big enough to lie into. I did a form study on existing lighthouse designs and I really liked the open frame lighthouses that are in the middle of the ocean. I created a similar design in Sketchup and then laser cut the design with Illustrator. To present the design and the idea of sitting in a lighthouse in the open ocean I created a VR experience with Unity and a Google Cardboard.
