Night Shot

6.4??

Hey guys, the 6.4 brief is split into two sections, i'm assuming the part 1 special study is for the portfolio and part 2 synoptic is just for the exhibition? is that right? whats everyone doing for the special study? do you think if we do the spatial study, it can be done in quite an abstract way?

South Elevation

I need to add the trees to it, and maybe some birds, what does everyone think? (i know the plan is wrong, just using it as an example)

Spatial Section


Section to show the spaces within the complex

concept montage_THANKS S.BANG FOR YOUR YEAR LONG INSPIRATION

Hey sweets, cant comment on the blog so here goes a post to you :-) i like your plan but maybe expand on the scope of the context a little more showing textures and buildings/green space but without distracting from the plan so you can play with the transparency...also maybe make the outer layer (between the trees and floor plan) stand out a little more to seperate it from the context lines- maybe some subtle (gradient?) shading or something? also....whats up with your phone missy?? architecture is starting to effect my sight as well as my posture :-(

half finished plan?

I'm half way through tarting up my plans...and this is what I've done so far on one? I'm undecided about how to finish it off, like shall i shade in the context/ add some textures/colour....what do you reckon it needs...? You know when you stare at something long enough you just feel a bit lost after a while!

Emma Here

Hey,

Jack, I'm somehow no longer on the contributers list :( is there any chance i could be re-invited?
My email is gibson_emma@hotmail.co.uk

Cheers me dears,

Emma
Jack for some reason i still cant seem to comment :-( which is really bugging me lol. Should be heading down to London tomorrow evening to print my portfolio off (first term, elevations, sections etc) early friday morning and make it in for just after lunch on friday's studio. Printing it professionally there will work out cheaper than uni. I've been having problems printing my sheets in Chatham the past few weeks. The rest will prob print off in Manc on Monday.
I wanted to try and show the contrasting residential and green spaces either side of my site that run along the metaphysical boundary of Rochdale Canal. But was unsure on the opacity as I needed to keep the context underneath. Am also unsure on the colour of my building units. in the process of making them look 'more exciting'. Any suggestions?

PRINTING

The time for printing is looming, what are everyone's plans? I phoned chatham today to see if they were open over the weekend, but they said they weren't which is rather annoying. Do you think leaving it until monday is too much of a risk? Might print as much as possible on friday.

Site plan


With regards to the colour I have shaded the surrounding buildings, I didn't know whether to go light or dark...so I've gone bang in the middle with a grey?

I made a model...the 1st image is just a picture of it...I havn't photoshop-ed it yet, any suggestions before I do? The second was just a picture I took of the parts before I stuck it together, and was bored so just threw on a cheeky bike and thought it worked quite well...all needs work though...

1st Design section


what do you think? I haven't properly put it onto a page yet...
