Deliverables: Design boards
My first semester at Boston Architectural College (BAC) included a first-year study. Each week we were assigned a mini project with exact parameters. For the fourth mini project, we then needed to combine the elements from the first three exercises. The fifth then concluded with a refinement of that combination.
Each exercise needed to be applied to chipboard (brown) and use black and white elements (construction paper). The first three exercises needed to incorporate one of each: points, lines, planes.
The inspiration for my project was the Park Street Red Line platform. The vanishing tunnel and elements of the rail line were perfect for the project.
Client: m_space development
Project Location: Las Vegas, NV
Deliverables: 3D illustrations, commercials, floor plan visualizer, media CD, short film, website
Employer: Neoscape
Following the success of our marketing assets for Loft5, m_space development hired Neoscape to take on their sister development, L5. Located in Las Vegas, this project catered to a younger, hipper crowd.
For this project, I coordinated the production of: (12) 3D illustrations, website, media CD, short film, two commercials, floor plan visualizer.
Deliverables: Sketches, scale model
The first architectural design project I did was while I attended some classes at Hillsborough Community College in Tampa, Florida. This project had many limitations: must use two each of the five primary shapes (cube, orb, pyramid, cone, cylinder); each of the shapes must be 3″ in diameter; each shape must be white; shapes could be stacked no higher than three. These limits made for an interesting study.
In the end, I found myself playing and exploring with the linear relationships of the objects. This lead me to be sensitive to the proportional aspects of each shape. The most interesting piece was how each object created both negative space as well as shadowing.
