When I saw this triangular shape object, I immediately picked it up because of the unusual shape. On the bottom of the object, there was two different colors blue and white; which provided me the inspiration to design the residence. Based on the inspiration, I made a 3D model and translated the inspiration, ‘unifying Individual’, in the residence. One of the client is in a wheelchair; so, everything in the house needed to meet the ADA requirement. In this design, I focused on creating individual space for each family member while I created the ideal circulation for the wheelchair user. Also, in order to unify the individualism among the family and space, I placed the family gathering place in the center of the house.
I was running out of time when I was making the presentation boards, so all the final renderings were pretty rough. However, it still showed that my rendering skills improved from the past few months. It is more interesting and appealing to the client, if you have several renderings of the space. However, I wish I had a main perspective in decent size.
Throughout the whole time when I designing the residence, I realized that I needed to improve my time management skills. For the next design project, I need to practice marker lettering also, have a better understanding of the board layout to create the ideal board.
