Trojan Horse Development















the ideology of the trojan horse is a major theme for the development of ads4 assignment 3 . the adaptation of camouflage and something not being what it really is came into serious consideration for the design process....









after visiting the site, i was confronted with a very interesting neighbourhood with neighbouring properties having a distinguished commercial, factory style to them with several grafiti pieces spread throughout..



in order to comply with the camouflage ideology, i decided to continue the industrial style where i adapted it as a large wall infront of the house with a modern garage door bleeding through. i felt that this would not affect the design of the house itself but would act as 'camouflage' to the public where the house would not interupt the distinct industrial style.







further in my development of the design, i wanted to continue with my second accessment where i played with the theme of 'a space within a space' where the twelve units would appear twice throughout the design, in each space.







for this, i used my neighbours building where it would act as the space within a space and also acting towards the trojan horse where the other design acts as the camouflage. the facade of the house also allows one to comprehend this ideology, where it folds around itself giving it an appearance of spaces within spaces.
