Before Week 2 Studio

Hi everyone,

Just a few quick notes:

1. Before the next class I would expect all of you to have
    - Blog (with 3 + 3 images and associated words for the clients)
    - Moleskine notebook with 0.5 Artline black pen
    - 18 sketches
    - Sketchup model based on sketched sections
    - Blog post with 2 images of Sketchup model and associated sketches

2. Points to consider when designing/modelling Sketchup model:
     - Scale: consider the dimensions of the space needed and its relationship with the human body.
     - Brief: do your best to determine what spaces and functions your client might need. Try to be     creative and narrative, it will help your spaces develop.
     - Extrusions: be reminded that your models are not to be direct extrusions of your sections. Remember that different sections of a single building can vary greatly. Your goal is to utilise your section as a concept/influence/guide to inform your model.
     - Context: your landscape in which your building sits is important and should be given as much thought as your building itself.

Good luck and don't forget to be creative and have fun!

For those whose blogs are not listed on my blog page, could you please reply to this post with your blog address so that I may add it to the list? And as general practice, I would like all of you to link each others' blogs on your blog pages so that we are all aware of our collective progress.

See you all on Tuesday.

Cheers

Jo
