From my photo inspiration of the King Street Train Station to my series of modules and patterns, and final textile design, the key concept of linearity, movement, and connections have been incorporated into all processes and executions. These concepts were also applied to develop my concept model.
I used my textile design to create the concept model. The intersecting lines and the weblike patterns it created stood out to me the most. It continuously carries your eyes throughout the whole textile design, much like the movement of trains; constantly moving as a result of industrialism and the need for people to keep moving. These intersecting lines are like the intersecting paths of a train, as well as the networking that it enables; trains bringing people together and connecting like the weblike patterns of the textile.
I selected a section of the textile to focus on and develop into a three-dimensional concept. The first shape and form I envisioned in the textile was a pyramid. Next I noticed the glowing webs, a result of the color selection and technique. I then built a pyramid with a square base to serve as its framework. A pushpin was used to make holes in the framework, and silver wire was sewn into these holes to recreate the linear patterns of the textile design. The framework symbolizes the train that enables for to connect, and the sewn silver wire represents the network or people
