Architectural Design III

Project 2

Project 2 was to design a response to the program developed in Project 1, groups were paired off

to exchange programs. The project called for the schematic design of the site, workplace, exhibit/

conference space, and the support facility. The buildings were to become an icon and focal point

for the Levittown veterans innovation district. This was to be done with collaboration from the

clients representative (a person from the other group) for specific information on the clients

preferences. A second addition to the project was to relocation the Veterans Memorial park from

assignment 2 onto the site.

First I reviewed the program that was given to me to determine the goals of the client for the site.

During the design process I also had to keep minutes if I meet with the clients representative.

The final submission was to be;

- 5-6 sheets of plans on ARCH-D paper

- A written interpretation of the program

- A cost estimate at least 20% below the programs estimate

- A basic model at 1/8 = 1 scale.

For all the sheets I used the notes area to give my interpretations of the program. The sheets I submitted were the following;

- First sheet is a cover sheet with the cost estimate

- Second sheet is the site plan with the zoning, organization, and circulation notes

- Third sheet is the incubator floor plan with its interpretation

- Fourth sheet is the support services floor plan with its interpretation

- Fifth sheet is the section views

- Sixth sheet is the elevation views and the wall covering info
