This form is the "Subtractive Cube." I began with a solid cube and removed material from it to define a space within. This was a bit harder for me, as I was forced to work through the existing form to create the space I intended. Part of this is due to SketchUp, because some of the annoying quirks in the program wouldn't allow me to do exactly what I wanted to do. I did find it useful to explore both methods of defining space, however, as each requires a different mental approach to develop an effective design.
