Mid-Reviews

All,

Let's make the review for 1pm Friday 3/19 upstairs pin up. The space is reserved.

On Tuesday 3/16 I plan to be around all day. I will be at DiNatale studio in the am and Amoia in the afternoon so no class. Plan to attend the Friedman Lecture as a substitute and we can talk after. You are also welcome to come find me during the day and to sit in on the morning and afternoon reviews.

Mid Review

All,

I would like to move the mid review to Friday, March 19th at 2pm. On March 16th, DF2, D2 and D6 are having mid reviews and Friedman is having his lecture that evening. Its a logistic problem which we will avoid by moving to Friday.

Prof. Palmore - if you are available, we would love to have your insight at the review.

June - is the upstairs pin-up reserved for that afternoon?

Thanks.

Planning Pandemonium

All of this is somewhat free association sketching. I have very little insight as to what ive done here other than, its starting to work. Trying to translate the concept of a "blur" architecturally without being exceptionally cheesy about it is quite a task.

Ive sketch shaded each plan gray representing the ground floor at that given level. These are attempting to pull the different ground planes through and around one another strategically in order to better translate them into a meaningful pattern of circulation while not loosing the connection to program....in fact, improving them on Tuesdays plans.
Im starting to pickup on a rythem that Im going to really nail in order to pull this off, however as you can see in the 3rd level (+10') plan, the pulling of these levels is really starting to inform program placement as well as circulation change among the 3 levels.
Thoughts?

Nik - Plans March 2







Updated Graphics

So Ive changed the graphics to fit the description of how I was suggested to do so. What does everyone think? Does it read correctly now?

Obviously, Darker hatch is the level being cut through. White is Ground plane at zero and the lighter hatch is the -10 level. I have also darkened up the hatch on the existing to bring it out a bit more. Any input appreciated.

New Models for Friday?



Nobody had complete models on Tuesday. Let’s make an effort to have one for Friday.

Progress is good. Keep up the pace and we may actually finish these projects. Everyone should post notes and any discoveries.
