Hypotheses:
Isaac Newton:
Observation and a relaxed, free mind lead to the greatest discoveries
Through division, refraction and reflection we can truly appreciate colour and light
That the gravitational pull studied at a certain location can be applied universally
2 objects of the same mass but different surface area have the same maximum velocity
The Newton
Sigmund Freud:
Sigmund Freud:
Only through self reflection can we truly understand humanity and the mind
Our sexual impulses are the main controlling forces in our actions
Through completely releasing our mind (Free Association) we portray our true feelings
Our identity builds from the control of our thoughts, rather than the ideals themselves
Our personality and identity comes from our experiences throughout life, childhood in particular
Maria Agnesi:
Men are less responsive to a female teacher
Co-education classes disadvantage both men and women in their learning.
Educating siblings does not provide a good environment for learning
A revolutionary figure of leadership can be the catalyst for a change in thinking
It is only through later developments that we can truly appreciate and understand the effort made to create the first revolutionary step

NEWTON 1:
Observation and a relaxed, free mind lead to the greatest discoveries
 |
| 45^ Axonometric |
 |
| Reverse Angle |
Design Explanation:
The wide, expansive rectangular prisms and the counterleavered element provide freedom and a variety of areas in which to reflect and distance oneself from their work. Furthermore, the design is centered around a single vertical element that would allow Newton to conduct a variety of experiments on gravity.
NEWTON 2:
Through division, refraction and reflection we can truly appreciate colour and light
 |
| 30^ 60^ Axonometric |
 |
| Reverse Angle |
Design Explanation:
Newton was very interested in light, and the manipulation and dissection of light through curved and irregular surfaces. This lead to his creation of the first telescope, and this design is focused on allowing further research. This is explored in the design through a variety of facing rectangular prisms, that allow observations over different distances and in different light.

FREUD 1:
Only through self reflection can we truly understand humanity and the mind
 |
| 30^ 60^ Axonometric |
 |
| Reverse Angle |
Design Explanation:
The discipline of psychoanalysis was centrally based around the observation of numerous patients and this design strives to develop Frued's work further as it encourages self-reflection, an essential idea behind the examination of the mind. This is achieved through the two parallel faces, one of which looks down and observes the work being done in the other. Also, the small pod that sits in the centre of the design has the purpose of being a quiet, enclosed space of reflection.

FREUD 2:
Our sexual impulses are the main controlling forces in our actions
 |
| 30^ 60^ Axonometric |
 |
| Reverse Angle - Opposite sides are hatched |
Design Explanation:
Many of Freud's experiments and ideas centred around the fact that our sexual impulses control our actions. To further explore this idea in the design, the largest central rectangular prism acts as the central form. Many experiments would be conducted within this space, while the long prism that runs through provides Freud with an area of observation.

AGNESI 1:
Men are less responsive to a female teacher
 |
| 45^ Axonometric |
 |
| Reverse Angle - Opposite sides are hatched |
Design Explanation:
Agnesi educated her siblings as a scholar later I life having strived for sexual equality in education from a young age. This design is focused around two main cubes which would provide contrasting education spaces. Agnesi's office space would be located in the ground level slab, allowing her easy acces to both cubes, as well as a place of isolation.
Co-education classes disadvantage both men and women in their learning
 |
| 45^ Axonometric |
 |
| Reverse Angle - Opposite Sides are Hatched |
Design Explanation:
From early childhood the education of women was always a passionate ideal that Agnesi held close to her. This design allows an exploration of many different learning envirionments: the outdoor ground floor space, the central cube and the top rectangular prism. The vertical prism that stands to the side acts as a study space for Agnesi.

Design Explanation:
The design is based around a search for freedom and relaxation. The integration of the design into the ridge develops this as the counterleavered element gives a wide open view over the ocean, while the backdrop falls away into a deep ravine, looked down upon from the laboratory space.
