Developing Habitat project







Our six long week project is developing every day, and in the end of every week we need to present our work. This week we started with making volumetric model of the building. First of all we need to think about requirements of the inhabitants, how much space they need, how often they will use this rooms, after we needed to find information about the sizes of different types of rooms and finally we made colored boxes of card, using different colors’ to show different rooms. When the technical work was done, started more creative stage, we placing these boxes on our site model, thinking how the building will look like. It was very exciting to do this, because it helped to make a concept about the project, to feel the form and structure of building, to try different ideas. So during week the form of the building was developing till we arrived at our strong and clear idea. Only after this we started to draw plans and sections of the buldings, here we faced with some issues, for example for wide must be walls, where to place stairs and what is the length of steps, all this problems helped to solve huge METRIC HANDBOOK, which has all basic material about the building. This week is ended and a lot of work was done, but next week we will have formative assessment, so we must be ready for hard work, because time is going very quickly.
