More Preliminary Design

Well the spacing and placement of text and images are a disaster on this post and pretty much all my other posts, because I still can't figure out how to line things up on here, and that's probably why I don't post things as much as I should cause Blogger makes everything so hard and nearly impossible, and God-forbid you type something after you upload an image, cause then you have to go back and re-upload the image so that you can get your text in between the images, and then you accidentally click something, and boom, your images are gone again. I think I had an easier time learning to use Illustrator than am with using blogger.

Anyway, here are some more images related to the preliminary design that we presented before spring break.












Programmatic diagrams showing areas and activity and adjacencies and designing from the inside out, allowing the interior spaces to shape the exterior of the building rather than trying to cram everything into a pre-determined shell

















We built several sketch models to try to help us determine what happens in the space between our two gestural curves, and what form our building will take beyond the conceptual gesture.



















We are still in a very conceptual stage and I believe this model-building session helped us a lot, but we still have a ways to go!
