I choose this movie to upload because it shows a large collection of Banksy works in an easy format (as in no scanning the web for the images.)

Stairs



Malangi - structured
Banksy - box

The Sketches on the left are what i based the sketchup model on.
The sketches on the right are the additional pair we were asked to create.
Below are the sections from the first studio and stairs that i drew within the sections, as well as more detailed drawings of them.

Google SketchUp Model


The sketch I used, picturing:
Banksy: escape
Malangi: teach






























Artists have an ability to place their work in the public eye without too much concern, consequently I thought it appropriate that the building have transparent properties. As this would increase the spatial feel of the building as a work place, as well as allowing more visual connection to the artists for the gallery viewers.
In regards to the placement of the artists; 
Malangi would have the studio below ground level, which I would like to create as an aquarium sphere placed in the river, allowing Malangi to find more visual knowledge for his teaching river paintings.
A lot of Banksy work represents the theme of escape which he finds through placing his work on new surfaces, consequently Banksy would inhabit the top studio, as it incorporates the searched for feeling of spatial freedom, due to its transparency and height.
