Final Shelter Bus!










All the images above are process pictures for my Shelter Bus. The shelter bus is a bus for four relief workers to stay, and a place that will hopefully help out the community as well. I changed my mind over five times on the design of my bus because I felt my concept wasn't strong enough with the design. I needed to make the concept be a reflection of the overall design of my bus. First, I had a very plain bus design (from the top images) that was supposed to reflect "gravity" then I changed to a rotating bus that involved the concept of rotation, and then finally I came to the idea of Lustre. Most of the images above show my process of drawing on trashpaper, on the back of random pieces of paper, and also making little sketch models to help me become inspired with a good design.





These last images are the final product. The bus transforms outward (like my concept of lustre) and all the materials used reflect the idea of lustre as well.
