Revit Work, such as of this.

Hello All! Leah and I have been working fairly diligently to produce a holistic design in Revit, and it's not easy. This is our work we had as of this last Tuesday, and we have made major changes since. So I just thought I'd include a few screenshots from Revit of our progress. Please Comment if you have ideas!!

More Sketchbook pages.

                                              A quick idea of promoting growth in the middle of a building design.

                                                          Simple idea of connections of space, enabling views, and utilizing appeal of green roofs.

         Using panels of glass (semi transparent panels) for both a physical barrier of space, while offering also a viewing gallery of images. Tensioned by cables?

Progress in form at Last

       Things are looking good for our studio project so far! A huge breakthrough followed by a pause, then another huge breakthrough! Love it. Sure hope the other classes make me this excited when the major projects start up.

Here is some process work, site work rather, that has led to my 3 design alternatives. Hope you enjoy, and that we can learn from one another... I started by doing some preliminary research on Canola in general, then advanced to the site in question. Originally, I was skeptical on the site's feasibility, but it works out perfectly now I've researched and "discovered" it, if you will. I'm very excited about working this problem out, as I'm sure the solution will naturally resolve itself in due course.

HEY  ALL!!

I figure this is as good a place as any to post this.

I have an extra copy of "the death and life of great american cities" that was somehow charged to my account. It's hardcover and in excellent condition, shipped to me by Amazon. Technically i've paid for it, and i was planning on giving it back to amazon, but if you'd like a copy for 15$, it's yours! (Before I send it off to Amazon...)

PERSONAL GOALS

Since Everybody else is doing a list of personal semester goals, I think I missed something...

I would love to become an organized designer, even more so than I may think I am right now.
I would also love to read through and enjoy all of the books assigned to me in this class and others.
I need to understand building connections and therefore actually take a step towards built projects.
I want to learn Revit to the extent that some of my peers do.
I want to impress myself with my projects, as well as my peers and instructor.
I want to be able to tell my grandmother exactly what I'm doing in my project and why I'm doing it.
I want/need to create a resume, and begin to apply for internships both locally and regionally.

And thus, I also want to break my video game habits..................? Eh...but it's hard!!
