Midterm Presentation

Midterm Presentation

 

Two weeks ago was midterm presentation. This consisted of my peers and myself staying up for endless hours to produce work demonstrating our goals for the project. We were required to present ideas about how our project operates urbanistically demonstrating this through models, drawings, and renderings.  My presentation was received well and the focus of my design for the next few weeks will deal with the connection between my private housing and the more public ground plane (how can these two merge or create a third condition?)  I am excited for the development of my project because I think it has a lot of potential but still needs a lot of resolution and problem solving. Progress to come soon.
