Arranged different layouts and one fits well so far, but the orientation of the plan is wrong so I am flipping it so it is north oriented at least and it fits into the same layout. Kind of afraid to actually outline things though. Even though it was supposed to be done last night. I just need to go with it and start...

The site model helped with scale though there is still some debate within the studio as to what the correct scale is. I worked on my drawing assignment over the weekend and the assignment for today is to layout the drawings for final rendering. It's been helpful looking at the drawing project as a series of layers of information.

I used drawdels to base my freehand drawings :

1.

2.

3.

Then I combined all three drawings into one, several times over.

Finally landing on this one which I've been working with in model form for the study model.

Other studies/site model progress:

A lot of work was done using new medium/methods after instruction to do so in order to give the project more life instead of inhibiting it by only exploring one method, being a rigid method. So many freehand sketches were done and the feel of the project has begun to develop more solidly both in thought and in expression. It was really helpful to explore the project in several mediums at once.

Additionally there has been more progress both with the site study model and drawings so those will follow in the next post.

Mid-review.

The mid-review had a lot of constructive criticism, and I was happy I got sleep beforehand as it was a five hour long process. I think the biggest things I took away from the review other than my apparent lack of drawing skills, was that it would be a good idea to work at a larger scale so that I have a better idea of what the actual feel of the project will be, to try minimizing the footprint of the addition in order to create a richer space, and to use similar aspects of the original project such as hide/reveal, single terminus, multiple layers. Kathryn took notes for me so will be reviewing those again shortly. Second mid-review on tuesday.
