With things finally
slowing down, I thought I would take time in this blog to write about my final
studio project presentation. My group
(Brittney Mount & Stephen Tutka) presented on Friday, December 5th
at 2pm in the gallery at Quigley.
Overall, our group
presentation went very well. We explained our overall scheme and ideas
effectively. Various jury members were in attendance critiquing our work. My
individual presentation also went very well. Professor Turnipseed and other
guests seemed to be very impressed with my project. Numerous comments were made
that I had laid out the structural grid system very logically. They also
commented on how the extrusions within the façade were very attractive. Various
comments were also made on the various renderings. If you were wondering, I
used Lumion as the rendering service. I made a point during my presentation to
state how the Olympic Ring Interactive Water Fountain is the biggest of its kind
in the world! This got quite a laugh out of everyone.
Attached is a pdf of my
individual board. On the bottom right you will see the final site plan
surrounding my building. If you travel all the way to the left of my board you
will encounter the first floor plan with surround site for context. The fifth
floor plan is the next displayed to the right, with the 6th, 9th,
and 14th floor plans to the right of those. In the top left of my board you will find a
brief explanation of my project which reads:
2016
Olympic Legacy Project | Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
This mixed-use design consists of
commercial retail space on the ground level with a parking garage located on levels 2-4. Above the parking
garage lies 1,2,& 3 bedroom res idential
apartments. The building form serves two purposes; 1) Allows for the majority of apartments to have Southern
facing balconies, 2) Extrusions within facade
increase window surface area for each unit. Accompanying the mixed-use design is a central plaza developed for the
public that incorporates the world’s largest
Olympic ring interactive water fountain.
Elevations,
building section, and wall section is the last information displayed on the
board.
Thanks
for reading! Hope everyone has a Happy Holiday!
