Aafter receiving some interesting feedback (
here) I decided that i had spent too much time focusing on my greek reference. just because its marble doesn't mean it has to be the Parthenon right? in addition I agree with he critique that the horizontal is clashing with the gyro centerpiece. Initially i experimented with simply replacing the columns with twisting supports. however the horizontality remained with the stone doughnut cementing that horizontality quite strongly.
so i completely removed it and started the center piece again keeping only the gyro and the throne.
This first design is quite noisy but i like how the lines all lead around and up. perhaps a backpeice to the throne would focous your eye down to it?
The second design is replicating the gyro itself architecturally and isn't so close and grabby to the throne.
i like how it mirrors the gyro on a larger scale. I'd intend for these to not move but in theory you could make them spin about their axis slowly with dates and constellations inscribed on their inner surface. the second design also offers a largely unobstructed view of the dome form the throne which would be important.
