Congratulations to everyone who got their work posted for the review – this is a really interesting presentation format! I’m looking forward to discussing your proposals in Bemis tomorrow.

Overall, Great Job!!! We asked you all to do something you had never done before. Push you beyond some of your comfort zones, and demanded excellence. I think you all did a good job of stepping up to the plate and takeing your representaion to the new age of web-digital communicaiton.
Great job everyone.

GREAT JOB EVERYONE!! HU ARCHITECTURE HAS REALLY STEPPED THEIR GAME UP! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK! GET SOME SLEEP!

Lanre, The Wall is still a strong statement except it is so imbedded in the building and hidden by the mass of the rest of the building. Your section shows the entire surface of the wall and that is what I want to see when I am in the building but I don't seem to see how I would. It needs room to breathe.

Robert, your elevations are elegant and well thought out for solar gain and the cardinal points BUT why isn't that visible in the horizontal sections (plan). The pattern of your sunshades seem to influence the horizontal movement of space but they are not distinguishable from other parts of the wall. The sloped glass exterior is eye catching and its contrast from the solid side walls is playful BUT again is not represented well in the horizontal sections. A believable project overall.

Smitty, Thats quite a playhouse. I cant seem to find a vertical building section but from the elevations the scale of your volumes seem very monumental and too Grand. I am particularly fond of the North Elevation and how the curtainwall sneaks out from behind the punctured wrap. Speaking of the wrap it seems immaterial and flimsy in the sections as opposed to the way you represent the openings as cavities in that skin.

I have more to see I'll be back soon.

Clarke....Love that concept page. The scratches on the plexi glass are like circulation diagrams for your buiding.

Lanre...I love the fact that you can interact with your "wall." You can pass through, walk by, and climb beside it. Nice weave. Your transition from analog to digital is really impressive.

overall it was a very exciting concept and a great idea for a critique! i am excited you are learning how to portray your work silently... because this is how you get noticed- by your work. the work was good... and i would love to see this progressed into individual websites of student work, so we can see more of your process!
congrats to everyone

some comments for all of the sumbissions:

00. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE look at the presentation styles and techniques of students like you (and in years above you) from other schools of architecture! a world of knowlege can be gained from Archinect's "discussion" board. look for people posting portfolios, etc. if you don't surround yourself with what the rest of the architectural world is doing NOW it will become increasingly more noticeable.
01. think of your images as layers and use professional techniques- photo montage, sketches, and 3d in one image should be used in a sophisticated way as long as it doesn't cross the line and become elementary.
02. watch your font type(s) + experiment with fonts, but keep it professional and don't let it degrade or detract from your idea.
03. your idea should be explicit... i can't look through all of your images, but i hope to grab bits and pieces of your concept right off the bat.
04. using sketch-up is great for concepts, but it is not a rendering program- if you dont know 3d max or rhino or maya LEARN NOW! sketch up alone can make images that would be dynamic or sexy look elementary.

overall NICE JOB

Markos you are such a nice guy...Now give me back my plates.

I have a few more comments for Johnson, ross and of course Mr. Dodgeball himself and I will probably have more tomorrow when the review hits the meat world.

Carmen, great model shots they show the importance of your curtain wall system, the identity of your architecture. You have done a superb job at diagraming the floor plans but they are left at diagrams and do not fully translate the delicate origami glass skin you sell in the model shots. The elevation that looks through to the building beyond (east? west? north? south? Labels Lady) reflects my perception of your concept but the wall section stifles the poetics of the folding by to abrupt a change between walls. Somewhere I want to see columns in the vertical section drawings. A fun concept.

Marcus, I am comfortable with the scale and proportions of your project in context with the site images that have been supplied on line. It is a building that seems to belong among the ones already there. I am having trouble believing the building is a performing arts center. The nice sunshades and angular geometry allude to more connection to the exterior than what is typically needed in performing arts. The perception I am left with is a Lab or a courthouse or a urban academic building. Outside of that conflict you have fit your building well into a complicated urban fabric.

Mr. Dodgeball Clarke, Very well done and quite believable. I would second our friend Markos comment on your Intro board. However (it can't be all sweet talk) the modular spacing of inside and outside space is hard to read partly because your horizontal sections do not clearly distinguish between "solid" wall and transparent. A more significant contrast of width or texture might do it. When I view the horizontal sections I read the perimeter walls as the last boundary. This makes it seem to be no more than a big rectangular building with interior partitions. That is not the perception the elevations or section convey. The modular expression clearly shown vertically is lost horizontally. An excellent digital presentation.
Now give me back my book!


Congratulations Third Year you have done well presenting in this new media.

peace.

carmen- fantastic "night" model view! we did a competition in china and some of our best views of our model were at "night". these can become very dynamic images for your portfolio one day. (although i would change the fonts because it takes away from your ideas)
