My tutor James suggested I have a look at some of Frank Lloyd Wright's Prairie Houses to make my ground plane a bit more interesting. I searched for images of his most famous works and noticed a pattern: they all had certain elements which extended longer than they needed to be. I thought I'd integrate a similar concept into my design, with the ground plane extending infinitely into the distance. As soon as I tried this, I realised that this linked with my 'below ground' word, abandon, in that the plane extending into the distance gave the model a sense of abandonment in the space. Below are a couple of images that inspired me.
