EXP3: FB Lift

Again, with Facebook I decided to have a minor and major lift. I created a many tiered building to create privacy and distinction within the various groups within Facebook, however each level is a simple plane in order to retain the a sense of being public, united and connected to other parts of the company (for my power concept is that to have power you must listen to the public, before being able to dictate it).

The shape of the lift is a swirl, to represent that even though you are on your own path, you are part of a greater shape. This lift is but a simple verticle moving entity, and did not take me long to create a flow chart for except for aligning the height correctly.

(Note: the level in the back is designed to be a main office, similar to the T2 Plateau)

The main lift for Facebook is more public, and I made it round and red to stand out from its surroundings, for variety. The dome's physical properties are altered so that when you stand on the red circle, the dome will rise up around/through you, however the surface is solid when pushed to get in/out. This lift takes a path past the other spaces in the building to continue that everything is connected (as opposed to the T2 lift which takes you straight to your destination).
