The Elevators and Table (The explanation is very important)

This table was designed in SketchUp, but was made to form part of the alien structure. I liked the idea of not imposing a piece of furniture, but rather allow it to be drawm from the architecture. The table is part of the organism that encapsulates the building under the theme of 'Protectiveness' as control. It is in this control that surrounds the clients that they can come together in a humble way in 'Equality'; this is symbolised in the simple, un-adorned bench seating, which is the same on each side. This is not to say that they have no power, but they must conceed that there is a higher power

This simple, yet effective nature of the design of the elevator reflects clearly on the notion of 'Equality', each part has the same dimensions, the same texture and the same positioning in the final model. However, the distinct difference between the halves lie in that Donatella Versace's elevator on the left is more of an avantgarde, cut throat modern; fashion is not for the faint hearted. However, Zhang Yin's half to the right is very conservative and typically clean. It is a reflection of the conservative-corporate nature of her workplace.
