Folly Mood board Research

To start off this project, I decided to collect moodboard research on Folly's and there different styles of architecture.


While I did collect a range of photos to choose from I decided to look into Georgian Style Folly's as the architecture style is similar to that of my previous models.  I started this project wanting to do more of a castle arch or wall type of folly, however I changed my mind and decided to do a Gazebo style folly as I found it much more enjoying to create.  

While coming up with ideas for my Gazebo style folly, I decided to look at other cultures and styles to base my work off.  I then choose Greek Ruins as a main source of inspiration for my folly, so I did some image research into Greek Ruins.




My favourite one out of these is the bottom right image, it is where I started when I was first designing my final model, I like it because it has lot's of history and looks very interesting.  I like the crumbled organic look to it and I wanted to have a go and really push myself to create something more natural and give it plenty of history.  Now that I had the image research it was time to move onto designs.
