Utilizing the Hexagon

So like I said in the last post, I was watching Amazing Spaces and I came across the Hive Haus. Before I chose to use the Hexagon shape I experimented a little using the isosphere tool in Blender to create the shapes you see above in the two screenshots. The first was just seeing what the tool did and then I started working them together to create different areas.

I like the three pods joined in the middle but at the time I was struggling to make the space work in the middle, plus I wanted it more symmetrical at the time and the way the corridors joined wasn't even in either side so I soon scrapped this idea.

At the time the idea was to have a center hub which could house a reception area and a communal area where students could sit and chat and/or have lunch at. Another idea for the center hub was to create a green area where a garden could be planted and have organic foods grown and sold or used in a kitchen e.g. tomatoes, lettuce, carrots ect ect.
