EXP3: 5 REAL TIME IMAGE CAPTURES OF THE DEVELOPED CRYSIS WARS ENVIRONMENT
The lifts are transparent so that the clients can experience the views all around. There are two separate lifts for each client, and the lifts are on separate sides of the table, giving the clients each the power of ownership in terms of space. 
Miranda Kerr, chosen client and model, can use the bridge as a backdrop for her photos, and as she moves through the bridge many different views can be captured. The steel beams join at a point in the upper centre of the bridge, with beams also coming out from the meeting space at the lower centre of the bridge. This shows the power of balance.
The slabs are not positioned in a straight line. Instead they are offset from one another so that the clients can experience different views, depending on which area of the bridge they are standing in. Power of position.
The mezzanine level is high up in the centre of the bridge. It shows the power of position. This area could be used by Merkel, the other chosen client, as it overlooks the hills and trees. This peaceful and calm atmosphere would be highly appreciated by someone of high political power.
The bridge is open with balustrades rather than walls to enable the clients to have a full view of their surrounding environment. Power of position.

EXP3: MashUp
The 100 Most Powerful Women #1 Angela Merkel. The first female chancellor in Germany's history and the first woman to lead Germany since it became a nation state in 1871.[1]
A bronze statue of Helen Keller was unveiled at the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday as lawmakers praised her as a trailblazer and an inspiration for those with disabilities. [2]
The mega salaries and global exposure mean Miranda is expected to be in top physical shape 24/7. [3]
She (Keller) traveled the world as an adult, wrote 12 books and championed causes including women's suffrage and worker's rights. [2]
She (Miranda) couldn't wait to walk the runwayand show the world that being lean, toned and fit is something you can be. [3]
The foundation, Augusto said, still considers Keller "our guiding light. She embodies the American spirit of limitless possibility...her biggest desire was to leave the world a better place than she found it, and ladies and gentleman, that's the legacy she leaves all of us."[2]
Merkel was later named secretary-general of the Christian Democratic Union, Germany's largest conservative political party. She has also put her strict budgetary imprint on the sprawling European Union budget debates. With her conciliatory powers, Merkel has managed to maintain impressive approval ratings both home and abroad. [1]

Keller's statue will replace one depicting Jabez Curry, who has represented Alabama in the Capitol since 1908. "By placing this statue in the Capitol, we appropriately honor this extraodinary American, and will inspire countless children who will come to understand that with faith and with courage, there truly are no limits on what can be accomplished, and there is no obstacle that can't be overcome", Riley said.

EXP2: 5 IMAGES FROM CRYSIS WARS ENVIRONMENT
Electroliquid Aggregation Quote: "It is fair to say that thinking and experimenting outside the square is a design initiative that we should take, as our long time survival is not to remain invert looking on planet earth, but to spread out into space."
The ramp is created from the landform, allowing access to labs. This relates to the quote as creating a ramp from natural form rather than manmade structural elements, I am "thinking and experimenting outside the square".
The bridge elevates space, connecting labs to a meeting space. This relates to "experimenting outside the square", as by carving from a natural form, I created two elements; ramp and bridge, allowing light into ramp "space".
I created open space within objects enabling the components to "spread out into space" within their environment. This relates to the quote as it shows the survival and reliance of the natural form and manmade forms working together.
