FINAL OFFICE

the colour of my office is naturally cold - where the overall colour is grey. however, the highly polished grey concrete aggregate columns change colour from night to midday due to the warmth of the sun's rays. according to the New Zealand Building Economist, concrete is the cheapest option when compared to wood and steel. concrete being 30 times cheaper than steel, 4 times cheaper than wood.

the ground is semi transluscent to stick to my initial theme of transparency. the wall panels have been slightly flattened out to allow the texts to be easily read.



THE OUTWARD APPEARANCE


the appearance of my office is aesthetically pleasing in my opinion. the transparent rectilinear lines on the roof and walls provide a radiating glow from within. thus, during the night, my office lights it's surroundings.

there are three entrances to the western wall of the 3rd level. the entrances open due to touch and slides up over the roof. this allows more than one avatar to enter the office at once. there are also entrances on the south east corner and north west corners of the sunken hole. this allows people to enter from two different areas. i also thought of developing a walkway along the edge of the steep western mountain and link up my office to others. however, noone wanted to join up.
the floors are of concrete slabs again with the transparent rectilinear lines allowing the glow of the water from underneath my office.
under the office on the ground/sea floor, the glowing pads floating on the water allow connect the northwest entrance to the southeast entrance. if the avatar were to fall into the water, they could take the elevator up to the sea/ground level.
the orange glowing elevator in the center of my office is the main transport between the floors. it is wide enough to accommodate a maximum of 3-4 avatars and the stairs between the levels are for use by larger groups of people entering the office.
