Monday , October 20th, Parti Review Deliverables:

Two-Word Title, typically this can include the quality, an design strategy and or context. Example: Integrated Making

Thesis Paragraph, consider highlighting key words that link the idea, quality and conditions.

• Sentence 1, What is your idea, why is it important and who does it affect? Be concise. Example: “My project investigates the spatial integration of bicycles production as a maker space in Portland especially targeting the 35% of it citizens who identify as bike users.”
• Sentence 2, What are three conditions of your quality/affect?  Example: “Spatial integration of bike production happens across the scales of human interaction in production: solitude, small scale prototype making, test rides and collaborative design meeting.”
• Sentence 3, What strategies or approaches support the experience of that affect?   Example: “The slipping of spaces and maximization of contact of these spaces in a non-linear organization vs traditional assembly line, will support this human experience of integrated production.”

Conceptual Image/s (1-3) – examples or feeling of space

Make Space in Portland – City or District Scale

Info-Graphics – Contextualization of your idea in Portland

  

4th Degree Generative Diagram– 3a Media Assignment

Indicator Maps (2-3) – Neighborhood Scale, with call-outs for findings

it can be simpler than this (circles only). 1 per quality.

optional Example Unit Quality at Sidewalk Drawings – Elevation, section, Plan or Axon

Site Strategies (2-3) -Neighborhood Scale with one major idea each

 

you need not be as complex as the 2nd and 3rd examples here.

Building Strategies (2-5) – Drawing.  Plan or Section. Includes immediate adjacent buildings and possible APEX. “Urban Room.”

Building Strategies (2-5) – Models, 1/32″

   

Spatial Quality Studies in Model – Human scale 1/4″- 1/2″

 

Space Making Strategies (carving spaces, etc) –  Architectural Scale, 1/8″

This is nice. 1/8″ model, photograph, then pilot pen of highlight color right on top. scan.

3D Parti Axonometric Drawing – line drawing with possible highlight color/texture

 

3D Parti Model (Similar to 1/32″ Building Strategy Model) – Wood, acrylic or other material specific to quality.

 

Some context in paper with 1-2 or more foam extrusions would be effective. Neatly mount on foam core.

Presentation Format: (1) 32″ x 40″ vertical poster, all models should be presented on a box or stand below the poster. Drawings should be small and delicate. Consider hierarchy of image size on the board.

Try to include photos of key models with possible hand annotations drawn and scanned on your posters.

Consider the lessons from ARCH 610- line work, line weight, coordinating a highlight color (or close color spectrum), series of drawings, etc.  The first line drawings of the circles in the shop, studio, Hearth and outside LA 206 were so elegant.  qualitative study could come in photographing models, concept images and Photoshopping in people in color (consider motion blur in Photoshop).
