This cube was designed with the intention of creating a monumental impact on the viewer through the use of colour and size. The design was influenced by the colourful mind of Luis Barragan and it is meant to evoke the same colour theory he used on his buildings. The colour it was based around is green and green is a dynamic colour to work with because it can be both calming and energetic. This design uses it to create a more energetic reaction placing it in an analogous colour scheme, this allows for it to be placed beside magenta and multiple shades of green and green blues. The bottom and top of the cube at white so influence the vibrant colours on the inside panels to reflect of the floor and create glowing shade of the that reflect of the surfaced. So, when the sun shines on it and the viewer is standing in the room they are encased in beams of reflected colour. The scales of the cube as a building would be quite large as well and it would be placed in an area without many other buildings the rich shades or dark green from the grass and shrubs around it create another contrasting colour that would give the box an even more dynamic impact. The natural birch material of the wood was also left bare and the long line created by the layering of the wood to build up the ply add to the long lines of the design. The scale is also very important because it is meant to again encase to viewer. They walk in a space that surrounds them with large sheets of colour they have no other choice but to stop and take in it much like the work of Mark Rothko the viewer is meant to enjoy the colour and the reflections it creates that will sort of jump for areas to area as the light shines in and it will sort of peer around the walls and create the massive beams of colour.
