The above image is of BIG's monument from the ground near the forest as the sun shines through the trees. As you can see I have placed the monument on a cliff face to increase their impact on the bystanders below. The textures that I have used here are the DARK and the MEDIUM.
The design is very simple, though prisms are taken out to create space, windows and forms. Much in the same way that BIG's "Pragmatic Utopianism" which combines logical thinking with creativity.
Their connection is seen through the vantage points where I have situated windows and frames to view the other monument. The two monuments talk to each other and face each other in conversation over the meeting space of the architects below in the lagoon area.
A vehicle is taken by Utzon and BIG to their respective monuments to meet in the central spot of the banks of the lagoon where they come together to discuss their works and ideas, to bridge the gap between old and new, logic and creativity.
Utzon's monument resembles one of his works that has characteristics of gigantic proportions and solidity. This solidity is tested against Utzon's other characteristic of raw and exposed structures in the columns in the monument. Each column is covered in a column of glass, to indicate both solidity and an exposure of structure. The design also incorporates platforms and base of which Utzon was very much fond of.
Textures used here were LIGHT and DARK.
