Fieldtrip 3: Minimalistic Ring (Yee Wo Street)

Mood Board

Different from the movie, the circular bridge I picture in my mind is minimalistic and bright. My inspiration comes from the idea of retro futurism which can be seen in Blade Runner 2049 and Ex Machina. In order to remove time and space, the circular bridge is floating in the sky in which time and space are unknown. To illustrate a sense of futurism, the materials I chose are plainer and lighter in appearance. This can be achieved by two qualities – transparent (e.g. glass) and reflective (e.g. polished metal). I also apply a grey colour tone. Cool colours make buildings/ structures less significant, attempting to eliminate emotions and feelings which people may find it hard to relate. 

Inspired by the setting of Valerian and the City of Thousand Planets, I imagine the circular bridge acts as a connection point between floating cities/ planets, a centre of the world/ the universe where people meet. It can be a data emission centre or an immigration ring. Therefore, I recreated the circular bridge which is transparent and highly accessible (fences are taken away).
