Textures

The colours are inspired by Gehry's Marques de Riscal Hotel although I have concentrated towards gold tones which are found on the hoods of the graduation gowns of the University of New South Wales as the building is to be situated on the Village Green of the University and therefore a connection to the University is critical. Some of the textures also reflect the layering and folded effects which I hope to achieve with the new architecture.
