Monastery / ASMR

Juliette Bartsoen (Year: 1)

In this series of work, I'll take you through some visualisations of an own designed monastery and a space representing an ASMR (Autonomous sensory meridian response) sound. The Monastery has taken its inspiration from Habitat 67, that creates a residential hill in the landscape. My design took this clear language of stacking and circulation and gave the monastery its main spatial organization. The 8 monks sharing the building, have a strict schedule. The Chapel, where they spent most of their time, is central placed in the building. The space is connected directly to all other activities by monumental slopes circulating through the building. My second project has its beginning with the creation of an ASMR sound. The sound was created by taking the most out of the materials I had available at home. I listened to what sounds they could make on their own and combining them in several ways to create a final one-minute sound. A sound that makes you imagine space, materials, and maybe even colours. Taking this a step further, I created a Tableau Vivant. A 2 point perspective view on a construction. A space representing no action or function. Representing solely the created ASMR sound.
