WOOO (Final images)

Artstone details-parapet, coping and railing

Artstone door framing

Artstone bands and columns

Ext. perspective. I don't know how I feel about how the parking lot looks... oops

Ext. perspective of the roof deck

I think this is my favorite exterior perspective, maybe because it's sunny

Int. perspective of breakroom and offices

Int. perspective of bar/clubroom

Int. perspective of the research/reading room

Site map with contours
I tried to consider a lot more for this project as far as detailing, functioning of interior spaces and circulation, and site context and development. I think doing simultaneous models in both sketchup and revit helped and hurt me, because it took twice as long to do two and I also had to learn more revit than I originally had anticipated, but I am glad with how much I did learn even though I probably annoyed everyone asking so many questions. It also restricted how much further I could have pushed my final presentation with the time it took to figure out the software.
So far I think this has been my favorite semester due to how free we were to be independent and take our designs in the direction we wanted.
