The past few days have been absolutely nuts with my project. In my midterm reviews we discovered that since I want to add an extra floor to my building, I did not take in account that the structural load-bearing walls had to remain where they were. Needless to say, the floor plan I had for my building was wrong. Very very wrong. I had to essentially redesign the whole place. It was stressful because I have the problem, I'm sure like many of my fellow designers and classmates, of liking my first design so much that it's hard to change it around. And it was. By the time I was finished my first floor space planning, I ended up really liking it. I still have not put in the equipment for the physical therapy room because I am still waiting to hear back from a company that specializes in children physical equipment. I need to get those measurements still and quite possibly find blocks in CAD so I don't have to draw them in myself :).
Here is my first floor space planning:
I am still working on my second floor and am almost at a good stopping point. I don't want to put it up on the blog until it's finished. I might do that tomorrow. By next week I need to have my floor plans, reflected ceiling plans, and elevations all underway and close do complete AND my 3D modeling started. *phew*
We turned in our books today. I am actually quite pleased with mine. I have a lot of missing pages, but who doesn't. I am planning on adding on as I go. It's all falling together quite nicely, really. My original book layout from last semester was SO UGLY. This one is more creative and colorful and is an overall better layout.
