2.8.13 Reveiw

Plans and Site Plan

Feb 8th review

The below is from Prof. Ghandi. I expect the same, except that previous work will be presented using your walk-thru board + one additional analytical drawing (this is an important "summary" of your research). All other drawings must be architectural site plans, building plans, sections, elevations + a series of models. Persentation composition is always important, but not urgent for this pin-up. I'd prefer to see quantity over quality, however, everything must be clear and a pleasure to look at.

WE WOULD PREFER TO START EARLY SO THE TIME WILL BE 12PM-6PM

Your scheme must clearly demonstrate architectural and spatial organizational strategies

consistent with your Design 7 research

– be sure to explain:



Primary conclusions from your research



Primary intentions: what you are trying to achieve spatially in your architecture?

Your scheme must clearly demonstrate understanding of site + program issues:



Site: entry, orientation, topography, site planning, climate



Program: major program sizes + relationships, user groups, circulation

Your scheme must clearly demonstrate a start of a material + structural strategy:



Structural system: wood, steel, concrete, other?



Column grid, truss, some combination? Structural bay size?



How does this affect the sizes, spaces, and arrangement of your program elements?

Please format the below as ONE 36” x 72” board



Thesis Name



Thesis Statement [simple paragraph or bullet points]



ONE or TWO diagrams explaining your design 7 research



Site Plan at 1/32” scale





Section at 1/16” scale Planar model at 1/16” scale (preferably with some site context)

Kelly - this is to be built on the site you selected. I think you can do better! I think it safe to assume that you can ignore the current zoning.
