A Good Context Model to Build In

Section ONE has been very meticulous about its level of craftsmanship and detail as seen in the in-progress model imagery.  Ideally all the studio sections will deliver on similar quality levels.  The context model, though muted by its material palette, should express fine levels of detail (ranging from material changes and adjacency heights to architectural ornaments and glazing conditions) that may be critical in developing individual design responses.

Time Lapse of the First Night of Model Making

Once again Section ONE serves as the vanguard of the studio, taking the initiative to get their site model done well and on time (more or less).  Though Wednesday evening may have been a long night, it was worth it as it allowed students to quickly move on to develop their design work for the upcoming Project Two deadline.

A note to the other sections, this time lapse was done where each frame was taken every 3 seconds (and the video is 24 fps) so between the two videos there are several hours of elapsed time! Thankfully Section ONE will be out of the chaos in the fabrication workshop as the deadline approaches... until they get to their individual models...
