Major Project Semester 2

Here are (some) of the panels i presented for our finals. We we're encouraged to develop a series of drawings that could relay across a detailed, resolute proposal for an Architecture School of about 25 students as an addition to RMIT's design school. Rather than using extensive 3D rendering to present the project, I focused on using line drawings to convey an overall feeling of lightweight simplicity to the building. The facade uses an external skin of aluminium mesh which would help in reducing summer sun exposure as well as creating a translucent facade in front of the glass - a blurr between inside and outside. This mesh is also used in the floors, so that the 4 leveled studio essentially becomes one space of perforated floors and mezzanines - this is also a technique to allow the warming air to rise through the building being expelled through louvres on each floor.
