Well, it is that time
of the semester. It is time to get things moving for the final presentation.
Finish up floor plans, get the site plan ready, and get the building ready for
some renderings. We cannot forget about the model either. That is a big part of
it. I feel pretty good at this point in studio. I am confident about my
progress. I am thinking that I will do renderings from Revit this semester.
Sometimes, on projects that are big like this hotel, I would do the renderings
by hand. My first attempt at doing this is second semester junior year. Two
weeks before the final project was due, my flash drive snapped. So I did all of
the drawings by hand since I did not have a backup file. Since then, I realized
that I have an option to do it by hand.
Anyway,
back to this project. My hotel for Barra Da Tijuca, Brazil is 13 stories above
ground and two stories below ground. Fifteen levels in all. I have decided that
it will have a façade that includes stucco, concrete cladding, and granite. The
granite is a native material from that area.
From
the past reviews, I have not gotten any suggestions about how to improve my
building or the site plan of my area. I only got suggestions about how to
convey the message I am trying to get across better. So I am making my own
tweaks and changes as I see fit. Once I found out how to do the structure of
the buildings, everything else followed and it really started to develop. My
master planning group for our entire master plan in which my building is set in
will meet to finalize the plan and start producing final presentation drawings
for it to explain our idea.
What
I plan on doing to finish this project is, most importantly, get my floor plan
finalized. After that comes things outside of the floor plan such as sidewalks,
roads, etc. One thing I have to figure out is the parking. I have two floors
for parking but I do not think that it will be enough for all of the rooms plus
the workers. The only thing after that is figuring out how the service vehicles
will get in for deliveries. I would like to try to hide that as much as I can
but I am not sure as of now how I will do it.
