final documentation

By now, every team should proceed to developing the following set of drawings with priorities indicated:

drawings:
1.
- Site Plan with your building roof plan and outdoor area design (entry, earth retaining walls as design help to integrate the landscape, covered parking, trees, green….); scale 1’:1/32”
- Floor Plans; scale 1’:1/8”. Primary step: total ground floor plan of the entire project including all the spaces and exterior context; Drawings should start to include all lines that help us understand the integration of elements and systems: envelope, walls and structure centerlines, ceiling and projecting lines (do not include lighting; include only built-in furniture);
2.
- One significant building Longitudinal Section with site-context; scale 1’:1/8”
- One significant building Transversal Section with site-context; scale 1’:1/8”
- Two-Four main Elevations (N-S-E-W) with site-context; scale 1’:1/8”
- One special section through one space (the one of the structure, skin and light study), scale 1’:1/4”
3.
- site model which is actively used as a process model where the integration of the building is tested; scale 1’:1/8”
- Rendered Axonometric views of the entire building with details of façades or Envelope. Pay attention to the conjunction of different elements, joints, materials. The building should be rendered including your Site design
- One Rendered Axonometric view of the entire building in light gray and the structural system in color; (no Site, it is more like a diagram);
- One Rendered Axonometric view of the entire building in light gray and the mechanical system in color (red and blue), (no Site, it is more like a diagram);
- Rendered Section-Perspective with details of façade, structure (horizontal/vertical), and mechanical. Pay attention to the conjunction of different elements, joints, materials.
- Rendered light studies, light filtering solutions in one space (current assignment refined?).
-
Physical models:
- All previous Partial and/or schematic models.
- Final models should be in white color and/or shades of white (unless permission of your instructor to use other colors). Use colors only to reinforce a concept within your project or the integration with the site. Raster and/or perforate surfaces to obtain effects or surface differentiations.

Technology Assignments:
- Envelope 1 and 2 assignments with corrections, print in 18x18” format;
- Sustainability ideas, print in 18x18” format;
- Interior systems: at 1/2” = 1’-0” draw a “tell tale” floor plan of the one space which was the focus of the sectional model. Include all lines that help us understand the integration of elements and systems: envelope, walls and structure centerlines—black; floor pattern, built-in furniture and other room scale elements—blue; mechanical elements—green; and all ceiling elements, such as lighting—red. Compose a Legenda with all the materials you would like to apply;
- Interior rendered views with materials and colors.
-
Previous phases’ drawings should also be part of your presentation.

Booklet: print all your graphic material (early diagrams, site studies, drawings, renderings, pictures of your models, etc.) in pages 11x17” format and bind (spiral) them. This bind booklet represents the story of your project. Create a cover page layout with your name (team members), professor, studio number, semester, and year.

Pictures of your models. Some of them could be conceptual, represent details of your models, or a light condition, or a special angled point. Be creative.

During the next weeks, I will give additional suggestions or modify this list where necessary for every team depending on each teams specific design. The idea is to tailor this list in a way such that each design is represented according to its specific design intent. Each drawing needs to through a cycle of revisions, so the earlier you start the more refined it will be in the end.
