From the previous phases, the three brands that I chose are SOM, one of the biggest architecture firms in the world along with Pantone, A company which creates a standard colors for everyone by using reference number ( coding ) and Casio, the brand provides an innovative products such as a watch, printer and etc.
From the material studies, the threes brands have each of its individual materials research. SOM, I did research on the building facade condition, for instance, the dept, the material and the layers of building's facade in form of plate pattern. Casio, I focusing on Mofrel ( 2.5d printer ) which I experimented on how to create a surface on color clay by using those plate pattern from SOM to stamp on it. The last brand, Pantone, I experiment on how one single color can perform in many shaded by the different light and materials conditions. All these brand's research were developed to be part of Pantone and became "Pantone experience".
The objective of Pantone experience is to create participation from local people and tourists to the variation of one single color through structures ( the shape and the way to illustrate inspired from each particular site). Moreover, this structure is not just showing the variation of one single color but also helping visitors to be more convenient by adding more features to the area and promoting Pantone to the bigger market.
" Toorjira ka Jara stepwell", Jodhpur city, was chosen to be a site for introducing first Pantone experience event to the town, where most of the buildings in this city were painted with blue color and people also called this city as Blue city. Therefore, this was the reason why I chose blue color as my structure's color. Moreover, The surrounding of this site is the place where they do not have much of blue building but the color of sandstone brick ( yellow-brown). This will make a blue structure become more obvious on the site and emphasize the identity of the town as well.
The main material of the first Pantone experience would be colored concrete because the particular material of the building in Jodhpur city is sandstone brick so this material can well reveal the singularity of the town.
Due to the Jodhpur stepwell is now the unofficial local swimming pool and the meeting space of the local people and tourist so
the first design for this site will works as a storage for visitors convenience and site development.
