Concept:


Visual













Purity of Space.













Canopy













Sky & Light










Day











Night








In dealing with the hardness and harshness of the project site, there needs to be an introduction of softer and gentler shapes and forms to create a more inviting space, and people frendly area. Materials should be such that allow for the interaction of those within the building with those outside (being seen). With a lack of green space in the area, a portion of the site should be left for the introduction of trees, grass, plants and water. These areas should be developed to promote the interaction of people within the space and allow the average person a chance to interact with general public through street arts and vending. The building should help to bring life to the area when the day progress to evening by allowing building light to help with general lighting of site.

Mark,

I appreciate these precedents as they show what the intent of yout hardline drawings is. Is there a way in wich you can overlay this information into your drawings?

You could achieve this by better annotating your drawings and fold in the information that you post as a written statement into them, or use color or other graphics that "analyse" your design. Or use renderings to show the effects that you want to achieve in terms of transparency and night views.

This will be an important element of your presentation: make your drawings speak!
