 I chose to include the plan and section of me 3D model of the pattern to better show how I interpreted hierarchy among the elements. I felt the star form and the circles should be on the same plane at each level because it is those star forms that actually create the circular image in the pattern itself. I stacked these layers to lead to a small sphere at the bottom because that's how I interpreted the way the pattern leads your eye when you view it.




 I primarily wanted to emphasize the circular form developed in the pattern by making it a solid green, secondly the object that formed the pattern itself by making it a more transparent green, and thirdly the curving form in the background by making it black, similar to how it stands in the pattern itself.









My 3D modeling of the photo of Fallingwater I took was a bit more literal.  I felt it was important to clearly model each of the primary planes, their materiality, their thickness, and their depth in the photo. Falingwater is all about overlapping volumes and I wanted to make sure that read in my model. I used the lighting to highlight the texture in the hybrid. In the artificial lighting one (image 3), I used a low cone light to place hierarchy on the stairs moving from the volume of the water to the room above.
