Design Project 1 - Preliminary Plan

I suppose this should have been posted much earlier..but here is the preliminary plan for the project. This helped me to explore and edit housing arrangements and to create space by their organization.

Design Project 1 - Illustrative Details



Exploring these details helped me to further understand the scale, style, and materials that I was considering for the design...I feel like this process is important to fully realizing your design ideas and I wish I had left myself some more time...you live, you learn.

These perspectives help to showcase the character and identity of the community. Building the model helped me to study these details further...

Design Project 1 - Enlarged Plan

This is the enlarged area that I chose to concentrate on...I felt drawn to this area because I felt that it truly encapsulated the idea of a "buzzing hive". Working on this component of the design project helped to me to develop a much deeper understanding of the spaces. Enjoy.

I know my drawings aren't labeled...but for some reason I had trouble uploading all of my updated files ("server error message". Nonetheless, here it is...a caterpillar transforming into a butterfly.
