Is this type of section allowed?!

Thinking of doing my section like this:


Did the crooked cut so it would follow the circulation path of the building and the off angle perspective just looks a bit tastier than face on.

Thing is I don't know if I'ma get bummed for this? Is that an acceptable section? (gunna tart it up in photodouche later on too)

Drawings

What size are people doing plans and are they gonna be the same size as plans and sections or differ from 1:100 to 1:200?

Elevations

How is everyone doing their elevations? a 3D model or autocad drawing?

1:50 Section

Hey guy just trying to get my detailed 1:50 section on a page but because of the size of it and all the detail within in it the pdf comes out distorted. Just wondering for this section is it acceptable if we cut out chunks of the building out or if we just show part of the buildings detail? Or does it definately have to show the whole slice of the section if that makes sense?

1 st Section

Portfolio Pages

Everyone should upload portfolio pages as and when they are done, that we we can all comment to make changes, it's easier to see any mistakes when you haven't just spent hours making it. good luck everyone.

Hi Guys! I was wondering what size portfolio people are thinking of doing their pages to? The tutors said A2 would be fine and that most people are doing that?

Religion Goes Green


The function of my building is a food market followed by a cafe.
Then above this is a lecture room to teach adults about the economy and a large classroom for children to learn about farming.

The religious idea came in because I wanted the building to be a central core which brings society together and also for them to see farming and a new currency like how people see religion.

Outcome of this- I didn't want my building to literally look like a church but the plans are influenced largely by those of a church.
